Sage Distribution ERP software ideal for global manufacturers

Today’s manufacturers feel the ‘pain’ when they’re not competitive: products hit bottlenecks, delivery schedules go unmet and profitability slips.

Worse, a customer may switch to a new manufacturer, one who embraces the technology necessary to remain competitive by exceeding customer expectations.

What businesses need is a data management software that integrates information from multiple sources, such as specialty orders on the line, or supply chain options, to bolster decision making on the floor, in the warehouse or from the C-level suite.

Sage ERP: a powerful analytical tool.

Managers need information, pricing and vendor profiles to purchase raw materials, for example. And, they need to do so without having to move from one application to another, scrolling through multiple open windows before realizing the data is on a different desktop PC.

Some of the functions provided by Sage Distribution ERP software include payroll processing; the ability to create sales and billing invoices and to identify areas that need immediate attention, such as parts inventory supplies.

Shipping and invoicing for global customers.

With the demands of shipping schedules, price points and ever-changing vendor information, the manufacturer must be kept informed in real-time. That also means having the ability to track currency conversions, foreign tax or duties.

If owners rely on old methods of noting such information, such as Excel spreadsheets, the result of inaccurate—or missing data—can forever impact shipments and the bottom line.

What’s more, keeping track of foreign taxes, duties and currency conversions open up a lot of room for error. This is why using the Sage ERP platform can help speed the entire product cycle, including timely billing to ensure needed cash flows.
