Build a robust RMA and service process, optimize resources, and use accurate inventory forecasting. Our clients are taking advantage of these features, and we can help you do it too.
This is an ERP that fits any business and budget size. Whether you are a startup or a global enterprise, our team can help you connect your operations.
In our experience, the five must-have features that are requested include:
Used for managing the conversion of purchased items into manufactured goods. They allow you to route your work through various work centers or machines on your shop floor.
Used for managing the conversion of purchased items into manufactured goods. They allow you to route your work through various work centers or machines on your shop floor.
The features available allow you to scale from simple inventory controls, to complex warehouse management with bins, lots, and serial numbers. The financial components are taken care of with appropriate costing methods and other considerations.
Structure your items that must be produced or assembled in terms of their components. Our team has helped companies fully structure multi-level BOMs for both production and assembly.
For each of the manufacturing features, there is a direct connection to the financials of the business. With the correct configurations, every transaction that happens will be recorded for its accounting and financial impacts.
Many of our clients take advantage of several add-ons to get more efficiency in their workflows. Some of the most requested are:
Visual scheduling provides a wide range of features, but namely it allows you to easily plan your production steps and optimize resource costs by seeing the impacts of different planning steps.
Our team has an integration to DocuSign allowing you to embed eSignatures directly into Business Central. This provides a quick way to send quotes, estimates, or any other documents for signatures without juggling multiple applications.
As your team is working in the warehouse, moving inventory, shipping, or receiving, our Warehouse Application for handhelds allows all of these functions to happen right on the device.
Implement a structured Quality Assurance process for any of your workflows. As you receive goods, verify the quality, take notes, and add detailed reporting to improve operations.
Many of our clients have service businesses or other agreements that they need to track. Our add-on applies all the features needed to track and manage your contracting.
The teams we meet with are here because they typically have the same types of problems:
As your company grows, the tools you use will need to grow with you. Not all accounting or ERP systems are able to handle this. Whether you are on QuickBooks, an outdated ERP, or a niche ERP solution, there typically comes a point where your team is ready to invest in getting onto a system that is scalable.
Dynamics Business Central is a clear favorite given it's affordable license pricing and that it is built to handle operations of any size. We have implemented Business Central for teams as small as one user and as big as 500+.
As mentioned above, it's common for companies to be run on a patch work of different systems. When this is the case, finding the right information can be a real problem. By connecting your entire business within one solution, you can ensure that your people have access to the information they need.
Once you are on a single solution, challenges that were previously difficult, if not impossible, become easy to implement. Routing approvals to the right department, keeping everyone coordinated, and being able to automate manual work is a natural step of using Business Central.
By connecting your entire business within one solution there is nothing holding your team back. The flexibility in Business Central has allowed our clients to fully optimize their workflows and processes.
