Control your inventory
Easily add stock for parts in multiple storage locations. Quickly add ordered parts using built-in barcode scanning. Keep all associated data (datasheets, 3D CAD models) in a searchable instantly-accessible database. Always know what you have, where your parts are, and what you can build.
Manage purchasing
Quickly prepare orders for multiple distributors using up-to-date pricing. Use vendor rules to automatically select vendors based on pricing and your preferences. Copy/paste complete orders into distributor carts/baskets, instead of wasting hours navigating slow websites. Receive orders automatically by scanning barcodes.
Keep track of production
Check buildability, remove parts from inventory, manage multi-stage builds. Keep track of multiple builds easily. Track completed builds as sub-assembly parts in your inventory. Use lot control to maintain full traceability from parts/orders to completed devices.
Inventory control software and MRP software that you will enjoy using
PartsBox is an online app that lets you take control of your electronic parts inventory, parts ordering/purchasing, BOM pricing, and manufacturing. It keeps track of where components are stored, what the current stock levels are, and which components are used in which projects/BOMs.
Built-in barcode scanning
To add stock or create parts, simply scan the bag that the part came in.
Use a connected barcode scanner, or your computer's camera. PartsBox will offer to create the part if it doesn’t exist, pop up an 'Add Stock' dialog, and even fill in the quantity.
Hardware startups, manufacturers, companies that design, prototype and manufacture electronic devices, R&D divisions of large companies and research labs use PartsBox to manage their electronic components inventory, purchasing and production. PartsBox is an ERP/MRP system specifically targeted towards electronics production, designed to be low-friction.

Substitute parts easily
Use meta-parts to group interchangeable components (alternates or substitutes) and keep your BOMs flexible, avoiding project delays due to part shortages. All part substitutes are considered for project pricing, purchasing and building. (Learn more)
Buy only what really is needed
Your BOMs often share common parts. When building several projects, find out what actually needs to be bought, taking existing inventory into account. Let PartsBox calculate how many parts you need to buy.
Traceability using lot control
Find production batches based on a part distributor lot number or order. Find order number based on a device serial number. Have full control over which parts go into which device builds.
Keep track of builds
Every build can have a different configuration: not all parts could be placed, and some parts could be substituted. Partial builds are also supported: place SMD parts first, then follow with THT later. Let PartsBox remember exactly what was built and when.
