DELMIAWorks Automatic Tooling Amortization Tracking
Every Monday, WebRun opens DELMIAWorks to pull each mold's cumulative shot count, matches it against the tool's original cost and amortization terms booked as a fixed asset in QuickBooks, and updates a Google Sheet tracker showing how much of each tool's cost has been recovered, what balance remains, and the cost per shot so far.
How do I track how much of a mold's cost has been recovered?
WebRun pulls each mold's cumulative shot count from DELMIAWorks every Monday and matches it to the tool's original cost and amortization terms booked in QuickBooks. It updates a Google Sheet tracker showing the balance remaining and the cost per shot recovered so far, so you can see which molds are still earning back their cost and which have already turned to pure margin.
- Every mold's amortization balance updates weekly without a manual pull
- Fully paid off tools are flagged the week they cross the line
- Cost per shot is visible for pricing and quoting decisions
Built for injection molders · plant controllers · tooling engineers · plastics manufacturing finance teams

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Does it post the amortization entry in QuickBooks?
No. WebRun only reads the fixed asset and amortization terms already booked in QuickBooks. Posting a depreciation or amortization journal entry stays with your accounting team.
How does it match a mold to its QuickBooks asset record?
It matches on the mold number, so keeping the same mold number in both DELMIAWorks and QuickBooks's fixed asset list lets WebRun line up shot counts with the right tool cost automatically.
Will it tell me when a mold is fully paid off?
Yes. Once a mold's shots recovered reach its full tool cost, the tracker flags it as fully amortized so you can see at a glance which tools are now pure margin.
