Management Information
Getting reliable and up-to-date information about what is happening within your business can be a complicated task. Most business owners know what their top selling product is - but which products contribute the most margin and which customers are buying those products?
The Management Information Option is easily mastered and presents key performance data for your business in a graphic “dashboard” giving you instant access to:
- Margin by product, supplier or customer
- Supplier price and delivery performance
- Patterns of sales by region or between products
- Stock turn, ageing and outages
What's more, with a few clicks of the mouse, a line-byline breakdown of the transactions behind each summary chart can be inspected or exported to Excel for further analysis.
Sales Orders
Our goal for sales order processing is to maximize the value of each customer contact. Rich order entry screens with catalogue images and data sheets and available-to-promise data for each line item help your sales team become expert advisers.
Rapid access to historic orders accelerates entry for repeat business while a product configurator allows make-to-order quotations to be prepared accurately and easily.
Online account service using the Web Sales Option rounds out the full-service using the Web Sales Option rounds out the full-service offering for your customers.
