Inventory Control Software Review
Your inventory is your most valuable asset and ManageMore's Inventory
control gives you the flexibility you need to deal with outgoing orders,
incoming stock, backorders, returns, or dead stock among one or many warehouses
and store locations. You can build kits from an unlimited number
of parts and even control your own internal inventory stock supplies separate
from what you sell. Every day brings challenges, and each day’s
challenges are different. How do you keep track of it all? How do you make
sure your customers get what they want, when they want it? How do you manage
inventories in a variety of locations? It takes flexibility.
ManageMore's Inventory control software gives you this flexibility and
puts the power in your hands to control your asset. From the initial
setup of inventory templates to the creation of multiple pricing methods,
ManageMore's Inventory control software meets the diverse requirements of
a wide variety of industries. Because you can pattern this system around your
business rules, it puts you in control of your inventory needs. You
will easily be able to meet and exceed your customers’ expectations and maximize
your company’s net profits.
Setup your Inventory business rules by utilizing our powerful inventory
templates. Setting up Inventory is like designing your very own
system. Based on the way you do business, you can define default inventory
item pricing, general ledger accounts, taxes, category, department, warranty,
and up to five user-definable settings per template. Our Inventory templates
can also be used to auto-generate Item codes as new products are added into
inventory. There are even invoice options that determine the entry behavior
while filling out an invoice -- options like quantity, description, or price
override per item can be allowed or prohibited for a true point-of-sale experience.
Inventory templates will allow you to speed up your inventory processes and
minimize errors by reducing the amount of typing necessary to enter product
information.
Manage multiple inventory warehouses or store locations as easily as
you would handle just one inventory site. Using ManageMore's Inventory
control software, one can quickly setup an abundant number of separate warehouses, holding
facilities or store locations -- each containing their own inventory levels
for similar part numbers. You can track an unlimited number of items
at unlimited sites, providing comprehensive control over items, wherever they’re
located. Inventory transfer documents can be easily generated for moving
these inventory levels from one facility to another.
Exploit comprehensive reports which give you the information you need
to purchase the right products at the right time. Through a variety
of standard reports including: inventory low stock, overstock, count worksheets,
sales analysis, and perpetual inventory reports. All reports can also
be exported directly into products like MS Excel for further control of your
inventory data.
Efficiently control the in's and out's of lot and serial numbered products
in inventory. For businesses that require lot or serial number
tracking,
ManageMore's inventory control software along with the Serial
Number Manager™ program can streamline the process of receiving,
selling, or returning serialized inventory items. When a product or part is designated as a serialized
item, a pop-up window opens and is populated with appropriate information.
Serialized inventory is extremely useful for businesses that want to manage
product warranties, track repairs, reduce fraud, reclaim stolen property,
announce product recalls, and much more.
Take advantage of Inventory cycle counting techniques which yield more
accurate results.
Our Inventory control software simplifies entry and reconciliation of physical inventory
counts with a variety of options, including the ability to freeze inventory
quantities so they are not updated by transactions while you are counting.
It is not necessary to close your warehouse to do the physical count either.
For those businesses that perform frequent physical counts, our inventory
control fully supports cycle counting using ABC analysis. You can enter physical
counts into the system, print count worksheets, and preview the adjustments
before posting the inventory changes.
Improve the accuracy of your Inventory counts with the use of
hand-held data collectors.
Data collectors are no longer an expensive automation device designed
for large retail operations with hundreds of inventory items only. A
data collector allows your staff to quickly do inventory counts without
the need for error-prone and clunky paper and pencil notation.
With dozens of inexpensive hardware models available today, any business
with a moderate inventory can take advantage of the efficiency and
accuracy of such a device. ManageMore's inventory control software
makes it easy to import the data gathered from almost any of these devices
in a matter of seconds. Reconcile your inventory without the worry
of data entry errors, illegible handwriting on count sheets, or the large
time involved with inventory counting.
Easily create and maintain Inventory kits from other components in your
inventory system. A kit is an inventory item containing two or more
components (inventory items). Kitting is ideal for businesses that sell products
individually or bundled for a special price. Kits can also be used for
businesses that manufacture a product from a variety of other components in
their inventory. As kits are sold to customers, ManageMore's Inventory
control software automatically reduces appropriate inventory levels on all components
that make up the kit. Your customers can even return a partial kit and
the inventory module will handle the appropriate returns of only the usable
items that exist within the returned kit.
Manage multiple vendors for each item in your inventory. We
make it simple for you to quickly identify other vendors that carry products
you need. You can't always rely on the same vendor to carry the products
your customers are demanding. Our inventory control software makes it simple to
utilize alternate vendors and will even remember the best cost, last cost,
economical order quantity and lead time for each vendor on the same part.
Instantly identify items that are selling well and those that are problematic.
While viewing any inventory item, you will immediately be able to access:
First Date Sold; Last Date Sold; Total Quantity Sold; and M-T-D, Q-T-D and
Y-T-D Purchases, Quantity Sold, Adjustments, Transfers, Returns, Sales, and COGS
compared to prior years. There is no need to print a report -- vital
information about a product is just a mouse click away.
Produce standardized pricing rules for your inventory items to ensure
proper and consistent profit margins. Support for a variety of pricing
methods (e.g., Markup percentage, Margin percentage, Fixed Price) can be setup
to streamline your profit calculations in a more systematic and business-like
manner. Special price rounding techniques can also be applied so that
products display a more consistent dollar and cents value throughout your
inventory product lines.
Easily identify and track the work flow of merchandise through
stages of production. For some businesses (like manufacturers),
a product (and its associated parts) may require separate counts through
its various stages of production (e.g. assembly, painting, varnishing, and
then it becomes a finished product). This can help a business
identify how well a production line is doing and better estimate when and
how many finished products will be coming available for sale.
ManageMore's multi-location inventory design can easily be setup to
support any number of stages that you wish to keep count on. So
whether you assemble, collect, disband, "bag and tag" or manufacture
something in stages, and want better control of where everything is at
each stage, ManageMore is for you.
Dramatically reduce efforts involved when lowering or increasing inventory
prices. At some point in time, every business will either create
special sales incentives or increase its prices to reflect inflation and cost
of doing business. This can sometimes be a tremendous amount of work
for businesses with hundreds or even thousands of products among multiple
locations. ManageMore's Inventory control software eliminates the need
to individually change prices one inventory item at a time. Through
a global price change window, one can set rules and conditions for inventory
categories that require price updates. Utilizing pricing methods (like
Markup and Margin percentages), one can quickly do mass changes to inventory
without the tedious effort of manual data entry.
