As a Distributor, Wholesaler or light manufacturer you need integrated systems to manage your inventory, your orders and your financials. Visibility to your supply chain is imperative, knowing the finished goods inventory on the floor is not enough. You need to tie that on the supply side to your incoming [link to PO page] orders, be they raw materials or saleable product, and on the demand side you need to know what you have committed and when. You need to balance work in process with cash flow and have a real understanding of your cost of goods sold.

More than any other business accurate and timely cost accounting is the key to profitability for the distributor or wholesaler. Margins are often tight, sell price is determined by markets and buy price is squeezed by manufactures, and all the time your operating costs move upward.

Distributor and Wholesaler software solutions must provide visibility, visibility of your inventory, visibility of your workflows, visibility of your orders (purchase orders and sales orders) and visibility of your financials. They must also manage your business processes, allowing orders to be placed, received, picked, shipped and paid for, ensuring inventory levels are maintained at appropriate levels for seasonal demand. Efficient Distributor and Wholesaler software will ensure routine tasks are automated and provide exception reporting to ensure what should happen, does happen, on time, every time.

As a distributor or wholesaler a one-size-fits-all software solution is unlikely to work for you. The demands of an industrial products supplier are very different from those in the food service area, and different again for the light manufacturer or assembler. You need a software solution that can manage your business, your way. Whether it be a need to manage a time critical product recall, kitting and assembly inventory, consignment sales or managing deliveries on time to your customers from van stocks, each needs a system configurable to the needs of your business.

ABECAS Insight Enterprise software provides all the elements you will need, from accounts receivable, accounts payable, cost accounting, purchase and sales order management, inventory and freight management to EDI and web visibility, using [Link to RF page] barcode scanning or paper.
