Micronet Centralised Maintenance
Centralised maintenance streamlines business processes and provides greater flexibility for entities within an organisation.
Improve supply chain efficiencies with real time data over single and multiple companies. Reduce stockholdings and increase visibility into the inventory of all companies, branches and distribution centres. Automate intercompany order fulfillment, source inventory across all locations with transfers between companies and branches.
Gain a better understanding of alternative supplier strengths and weaknesses at a branch or company level. Improve external supplier negotiations with greater transparency on consolidating purchasing power. Centrally manage and roll out supplier price files and improve supplier chain efficiencies with EDI.
Uniform data sharing with the global replication of main master files across the organisation. Master files remain consistent and are easily managed across the group of companies. Replicated master files include
- Customer
- Supplier
- Inventory
- Special pricing
- General ledger chart of accounts
Sell and cost prices are maintained by head office and new items or categories can also be globally added and maintained by head office. When new companies and branches are added to the organisation, master files are easily added and updated to the new branch or company.
Increase marketing efficiencies through the finer control of promotions and customer contact. Marketing promotions for selected items and pricing are set up and maintained by head office and then electronically submitted to all branches or companies.
Improve reconciliation processes with accurate, real time and consolidated reporting across the organisation. There is no manual end of month data manipulation, so monthly profit & loss/balance sheets can be printed locally and for all stores within days of end of month. Manage categories and profitability reporting in real time.
Secure audit controls reduce inconsistencies between companies and branches.
