Don't Let a Lapsed Certificate Cost You an Order You Already Won.

RENEWvate is the ERP built for solar manufacturers: production planning, raw material procurement, batch traceability, and ALMM/BIS compliance tracking on one Odoo-powered system, so a certificate expiry is caught before it costs you an order.
  • Built on Odoo
  • Solar-specific ALMM & BIS compliance
  • Batch traceability from raw intake to shipment

THE PROBLEM

Every Solar Manufacturer Hits the Same Walls

Operational bottlenecks that quietly erode margin, delay dispatch, and put hard-won orders at risk.

solar.industry.section.item,1

Delayed Dispatch

Compliance checks and paperwork stall right before delivery, pushing dispatch weeks past the promised date.

solar.industry.section.item,2

Reactive Procurement

Raw material is ordered after the line stalls, not before, so plants wait on inputs instead of running at capacity.

solar.industry.section.item,3

Weak Batch & Lot Data

Batch and lot records sit in scattered spreadsheets, so a single quality trace takes days instead of minutes.

solar.industry.section.item,4

Paper-Based Grading

Output grading and quality checks are logged by hand: error-prone, and impossible to audit at scale.

solar.industry.section.item,5

Spreadsheet Capacity Planning

Multi-plant capacity is juggled across spreadsheets, so one line overcommits while another sits idle.

solar.industry.section.item,6

Manual Export Work

Export invoices and compliance paperwork are rebuilt from scratch for every shipment, consuming hours your team doesn't have.

THE EXPERIENCE

Compliance Built Into the Core, Not Bolted On

A generic ERP can run your finances. It typically won't tell you a BIS certificate is expiring before it costs you an order.

Capability Generic ERP RENEWvate
ALMM / BIS tracking Not tracked as standard Certificate expiry tied to every SKU
Batch traceability Manual / spreadsheet Manufacturing traceability software built in: captured live at every production step
Multi-plant capacity planning Outside the system, in spreadsheets Built into production planning
SEGMENT BY MANUFACTURING TYPE

Built Around How You Manufacture

Different plants have different processes. Your software should follow your process, not the other way around.

Cell ManufacturingModule ManufacturingIntegrated Cell + Module
Cell Manufacturing

High-precision batch tracking, efficiency and output grading, and the tight documentation cell-level buyers demand - without slowing the line down.

Module Manufacturing

Solar module manufacturing software that ties component traceability and finished-module quality straight back to the source cell lot, so any defect can be traced to its root in minutes.

Integrated Cell + Module

Lot-level traceability and quality checks across both stages, with ALMM/BIS tracking running end-to-end - one system, not two workarounds stitched together.

FEATURED MODULES

Five Connected Modules for Solar Manufacturing ERP

From ALMM/BIS tracking to export invoicing, all five modules run on the same production data, so compliance, planning, quality, and finance stay connected.

solar.industry.section.item,13
solar.industry.section.item,13 01 COMPLIANCE & CERTIFICATION TRACKING

Certifications Tracked Per SKU, Tied to Production

Keep certification status linked to what you actually produce, so compliance is never a last-minute check.

  • ALMM List 1 / List 2 status tracked per SKU, automatically
  • BIS license tracking tied directly to production batches
solar.industry.section.item,14
solar.industry.section.item,14 02 PRODUCTION PLANING & MRP

Plan Procurement and Capacity as Production Scales

Keep material supply and plant capacity in step with your production targets.

  • Raw material procurement with automatic reorder rules
  • Work order scheduling and multi-plant capacity planning in one view
solar.industry.section.item,15
solar.industry.section.item,15 03 QUALITY & BATCH TRACABILITY

Trace Every Lot From Raw Intake to Finished Goods

Follow each lot through every stage, with quality records captured as the work happens.

  • Lot and batch tracking, with output linked straight back to the work order
  • Output quality grading and blending captured digitally, not on paper
solar.industry.section.item,16
solar.industry.section.item,16 04 INVENTORY & PROCUREMENT

One View Across Suppliers and Every Plant

Give your procurement and plant teams the same live picture of suppliers and stock.

  • Supplier management with lead-time reliability scoring
  • Multi-plant inventory visibility in one system, no more phone calls to check stock
solar.industry.section.item,17
solar.industry.section.item,17 05 FINANCE & EXPORT

Export and Domestic Invoicing on the Same Data

Serve export and domestic customers from a single set of production records.

  • Multi-currency invoicing and accounting for export orders
  • GST-compliant domestic invoicing, generated from the same production data
PRODUCT VISUALIZATION

One System for Production, Compliance, and Finance

RENEWvate is built on Odoo, so production, compliance, and finance share one database, and the system grows with you as you add a plant, a product line, or a new market.

Compliance & Certification

  • BIS Module SKU (128, expiring soon)
  • ALMM List-II Cell (valid)

ALMM/BIS status tracked per SKU, tied to production, so a certificate expiry triggers a hold before an order ships - not after.

solar.industry.section.item,24 02

Production Planning & MRP

  • WO-110 Module Line 2 (scheduled)
  • WO-109 Cell Line 1 (in progress)

Raw material procurement with reorder rules, work order scheduling, and multi-plant capacity planning.

solar.industry.section.item,25 03

Quality & Batch Traceability

  • Batch B-0821, 25 pcs (linked)
  • Module Q-printing, 100 Wp (graded)

Lot and batch tracking with output linked directly to the work order, plus digital quality grading.

solar.industry.section.item,26 04

Inventory & Procurement

  • Wafer - Reorder (Lead 25d)
  • EVA - Stock (On hand)

Supplier management with lead-time reliability, multi-plant inventory visibility in one system.

solar.industry.section.item,27 05

Finance & Export

  • INV-EX (EUR, export)
  • INV-DM (GST, domestic)

Multi-currency invoicing for export orders and GST-compliant domestic invoicing, on the same data.

Connected Workflow

  • 1. Production planning
  • 2. Raw material procurement
  • 3. Batch traceability
  • 4. ALMM / BIS compliance
  • 5. Finance & export

Compliance is built into the core - not bolted on.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How does RENEWvate prevent ALMM/BIS deadline risk?

Every SKU carries its ALMM List 1/2 and BIS status, tied directly to the production batch it belongs to. RENEWvate flags an approaching expiry automatically and can hold an order before it ships on a lapsed certificate — so you catch the risk weeks ahead, not the day a customer rejects a shipment.

Can it handle multi-plant capacity planning?

Yes. Work order scheduling and capacity planning run across every plant in one live view, so you can see where a line is overcommitted and where there's room - no more juggling separate spreadsheets per site.

Does it integrate with our existing ERP or Tally setup?

RENEWvate is built on Odoo and can run alongside or replace your current setup, including migrating data from Tally. Our team scopes the integration path during onboarding so nothing you already track gets lost.

How does it help with export documentation?

Export and domestic invoicing draw from the same production and compliance data, so multi-currency export invoices and GST-compliant domestic ones are generated without re-entering a single line - cutting the manual paperwork that usually eats a day per shipment.

How long does implementation take?

Most solar manufacturers live in weeks, not months. We start with your highest-risk process - usually compliance tracking or batch traceability - so you see value before the full rollout is complete.

What makes a solar manufacturing ERP different from a generic ERP?

A generic ERP can run your finances and stock. It typically doesn't track ALMM List 1/2 and BIS status per SKU, link output back to the work order at lot level, or hold an order when a certificate is about to lapse. RENEWvate builds these into production planning, so compliance and traceability sit in the same system as finance.

Does it support batch and serial traceability for solar modules?

Yes. Lot and batch tracking links every output back to its work order, and finished-module quality traces to the source cell lot. Panels and other stock also carry serial tracking in inventory.
