Managing stock is managing money….

….and money should be kept in your bank account not in the warehouse.

For manufacturers and wholesalers stock is the heart of the commercial system - the uzERP Stock module can be used to track all aspects of your organisation’s stock and work-in- progress which means keeping you up to speed with where the money is!

uzERP can keep track of

• Item master details

• Item balances across warehouses/locations/bins

• Stock movements

• Units of measure and converstions (e.g. how may packs in a case)

• Product structures and routes for manufactured and sub-contracted items

• Links to works orders, sales orders and purchase orders

Custom workflow

It is possible to map the relationships between stores and locations within your organisation to produce a view of how stock moves through the business.

uzERP helps you respond to customers while managing fullfillment and cashflow

The best way to improve cash flow while maintaining a high level of service, is to take orders accurately, deliver on-time in-full, avoid mistakes in billing, and have reporting to signal slow payers. This all sounds straightforward, but without modern automated systems, these tasks are time-consuming and prone to errors.

Integrated systems reduce errors and the time it takes to receive cash from a sale

Customer orders can be automated in many ways, including websites, phone orders, and point-of-sale devices. uzERP can automatically apply discounts, display item availability, and offer delivery options. Pick lists and despatch paperwork can be produced and orders invoiced—without requiring the initial information to be rekeyed.

Speed payment through accurate invoicing

uzERP provides flexibility and accuracy with invoicing by offering flexible terms and conditions, and recurring transactions to meet your customer’s needs. In cases when a customer is slow to pay, visual dashboards can alert the customer service team to inquire about the issue before it becomes a significant problem.

Forecasting

Using due date reporting for both receipts and payments accurate cash flow forecasts can be built showing when pressure on finances may be building, allowing corrective action to be taken ahead of time.

OTIF - the only measure your customers care about

The business environment for SMEs gets more challenging with each passing year - in today’s environment On-Time and In-Full (OTIF) delivery - i.e. 100% customer service levels - are what every customer has come to expect and anything less is a failure. uzERP gives visibilty of the status of purchase and sales orders and stock meaning customer service teams can organise delivery to customers’ requirements.

uzERP keeps track of

• Outstanding orders for sales and purchasing

• Overdue order reporting

• Demand vs Supply from either purchasing or manufacturing

• Customer service performance reporting

Custom workflow and paperwork

uzERP can handle make to order, small/large batch, and make to forecast (flow) environments so you can retain your current workflow and paperwork.

Information for everyone

Because uzERP is a fully integrated system, it provides a “Single source of truth” meaning that each department is basing decisions on accurate, up-to-date information.

User Interface

Personal customization of individual dashboards puts the core functionality required by each user no more than a click away, speeding work flow and aiding productivity.

uzERP’s clutter free work space combined with list based displays to provide a familiar “spreadsheet like” interface to data which is consistent across all modules. Context sensitive sidebars can be configured by user or role which makes it easy to give access to more information or extra operations as required.

Open Source

Built using open source tools, uzERP is a suite of business software that delivers big company functionality on a small company budget. With no upfront license costs you only pay for the implementation and support you require - therefore running your business with uzERP puts you in control of the cost.

Designed for all businesses… that just happen to be small

Just because you are an SME doesn’t mean your operation isn’t complex and fast moving.

The lead designers on the uzERP team include experienced directors of SME manufacturing businesses, in addition to accountancy and IT professionals. uzERP was designed and built inside a small manufacturing business, and supports Make-to-Stock, Make-to-Order and Process environments but is equally suited to Service Businesses.

Don’t be fooled, though - uzERP is a robust system and can scale up as you grow so you won’t have to change systems at a later date.

Web based

uzERP is a web based application accessible from any PC or Mac using a browser - no client software is required.

Always on the go?

When away from the office, businesses require employees to have instant access to systems - uzERP can be ‘cloud-hosted’ and therefore gives you access to all business information anytime and from anywhere…. meaning you always have access to real-time business insights.

Integration

It is easy and cost effective to add satellite offices and facilitate home working…. which helps to integrate geographically dispersed operations. Our use of an open source, standards compliant, database allows us to connect up spreadsheets and external browser/app based reporting systems.
