Rover ERP April 2025 Master Class:
Integrating Tariffs into Quotes, Orders & Costing
If production delays, scheduling bottlenecks, or unpredictable tariffs are impacting your operations—you’re not alone. That’s why Rover ERP continues to evolve with tools that help manufacturers and distributors stay organized, agile, and ahead of change.
In our April Master Class, we spotlighted new features that improve visibility on the shop floor and simplify compliance with dynamic tariff structures.

Visual indicators by work order status
-
Scheduling logic that respects valid work centers
-
Auto-push functionality to resolve conflicts during drag-and-drop
Phased Operations & Work Order Relationships
Group related operations together in defined phases to keep subassemblies moving in sync. Plus, track which work orders are supplying which finished goods with new recipient linking.
Custom Work Order Sub-Statuses
Define sub-statuses like “Pick List Printed” or “QA Hold” to add granular visibility into where each work order stands—beyond just “Open” or “Released.”
