Bakery management software for Sri Lanka
Bakery management software built for how Sri Lankan bakeries actually run
Multiple outlets, a kitchen that produces overnight, lorries out to the small shops by morning, and staff on monthly pay with EPF and ETF. Opernexa handles that shape of business as one system.
Five things every growing bakery runs into
These are the problems bakery owners describe to us before anything else. Each one maps to a specific part of Opernexa.
Every outlet sells at a different pace, and you find out tomorrow morning
All outlets bill on Opernexa POS with one shared item list and one price list. Today’s sales per branch, per hour and per item are visible from your phone while the day is still running, so a slow outlet is something you react to rather than read about.
POS & CashTonight’s production is planned from memory, and the difference becomes wastage
Opernexa builds the production plan from what the branches actually sold and what standing orders are due, then tells you what raw material you are short of before the shift starts. Recipes hold expected yields, so a plan is a quantity rather than a hunch.
ManufacturingWastage is visible in the bin, but never in the numbers
Returns, damages and unsold stock are recorded against a reason and valued at cost, so wastage becomes a rupee figure per product, per outlet and per day. Over a month you can see exactly which lines are losing money and where.
Inventory & StockThe lorries come back and the settlement is a negotiation
Van stock is issued in the morning and settled in the evening against what was sold, returned and damaged on the route. Opernexa calculates the cash that should have come back, so the reff round reconciles itself instead of being argued out at the end of the day.
Distribution & Field SalesPayroll takes days, and EPF and ETF are worked out by hand
Attendance imports from your fingerprint machine, and monthly payroll calculates employee EPF at 8%, employer EPF at 12% and ETF at 3% on the correct earnings base. Payslips, statutory schedules and the bank transfer file all come out of the same approved run.

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers to what businesses ask us before they buy.
Can Opernexa run several bakery outlets on one system?
Yes. Every outlet bills on the same item list and price list maintained from head office, while each keeps its own stock, shifts and cash-ups. You can compare outlets side by side on sales, wastage and margin in a single view, which is usually the first thing a multi-branch owner asks for.
Does Opernexa plan bakery production from actual branch sales?
Yes. Because the counters and the kitchen are on one platform, the production plan is built from what the outlets actually sold and what standing orders are due, rather than from an overnight estimate. Opernexa also checks the plan against raw material stock and flags shortfalls before production starts.
How does Opernexa track bakery wastage and returns?
Unsold stock, damages and returns are recorded with a reason code and valued at cost, so wastage carries a rupee figure rather than just a quantity. You can break it down by product, by outlet and by day, which is what makes overproduction fixable rather than just visible.
Can Opernexa handle van or reff distribution to small retailers?
Yes. Reps load van stock in the morning, sell and take returns at each outlet from the Opernexa app — working offline where coverage is poor — and the lorry is reconciled at day end against what was loaded. Outstanding customer credit is visible to the rep before they walk into the shop.
Does Opernexa handle EPF and ETF for bakery staff?
Yes. Employee EPF at 8%, employer EPF at 12% and ETF at 3% are calculated on the correct earnings base every month, with APIT applied where it is due. Payslips and the statutory schedules come from the same payroll run, so the figures always agree.
