The major difference between a responsible, profitable business and a sluggish, unprofitable one is often the time that elapses between the receipt of a sales order and the shipment and invoicing of the goods to the
customer.
Comp-U-Net's Sales System combines Order Processing, over the counter sales and invoicing resulting in quick shipping and billing and providing greater flexibility in handling back orders and partial shipments.
The Sales System geared to the Sales Person in the Show Room, allows quick order taking at remote showrooms or at the warehouses. Over the counter transactions withdraw from inventory, process the payment, post any A/R charges, generate a receipt and update all financial controls on the system in one step.
Sales Orders are automatically matched against the inventory with instant identification of the "pieces", "dye lots", "shades", "sets", "gallons", or "rolls" to be selected. Back orders are accounted for and readied for the purchasing agent in the company in vendor sequence.
Picking Tickets are printed at the warehouse indicating the number of units necessary to fill the sales orders with instant unit of measurement conversions using the most extensive range available in the market for the metric or imperial unit-of-measure systems. For items sold in rolls, the picking ticket shows the roll and length to cut as well as the bin number where the inventory is
located.
Comp-U-Net's Sales System provides:
- Over the counter sales orders for showrooms and warehouses.
- Quick entry of sales orders at the main office for distributors.
- Automatic credit check before the order is
processed.
- Automatic display of the inventory available to allow full allocation, or back order
creation, including the preparation of a purchase order to the
supplier.
- Quick and easy access to the open order file to perform any maintenance to orders in process: add or delete lines, allocate stock for back orders, change prices, recalculate the order balance, etc. Comp-U-Net's user Friendly System becomes the Sales Persons best tool in completing the Sale and monitoring it's
progress.
- Screen display of: all orders awaiting shipment for each customer, or, all orders awaiting shipment on a given item.
- Prompt printing of invoices and automatic posting to the accounts receivable and all other sub-systems.
- Listing of all "Special Orders", or, "Items on back order" from daily sales for the purchasing agent to order.
- Complete detailed print-out of selected orders from the open order file listing all items included in each order and their current status.
- Installations and Job Costing (Optional): For those companies that install their products, in addition to the sale, the system offers a flexible module that allows monitoring of several critical steps resulting in efficient management of installers and better customer satisfaction.
- Measurements Management (Optional): Once orders are taken, a physical measurement at the customer's site can be required in order to verify the accuracy of the room sizes provided by the client. The new measurements may produce an "ADD-ON" ticket to be mailed to the customer reflecting the actual room sizes as accepted by the company. An additional DEPOSIT is sometimes required and processed by the system as a part of the new order. Certain inventory/purchasing steps, such as the material ordering, will not be triggered by the system until after this step is satisfactorily completed.
- Installation Management (Optional): This module allows the user to maintain a roster of installers (by store) who are available to perform installations. Orders are easily assigned, either partially or fully, to a given installer taking into account the individual's workload for the date when the installation is desired. An on-line calendar displays the daily installation load by category and allows efficient management of all resources. A separate report by date may be printed listing all scheduled orders and the individuals assigned to the installations. Along with the installation step, a job order ticket for the warehouse is prepared. For those companies performing installations through independent subcontractors, an installation sub-contract may be printed, including all necessary instructions plus C.O.D. amounts to collect. On-line History of any changes to a job order including partial payments, add-ons, cancellations,
etc.
- Job Costing: The system monitors all materials and labor costs associated with each order and provides ample flexibility to allow different labor rates by store, task and/or installer. Under password security, authorized users may display a 'Job Costing Screen' including summarized Material and Labor charges and including gross margin and mark-up percentages. A cost variance report lists all changes to the standard cost made by those authorized to access these
figures.
- Sub-Contractor Payments: Upon acknowledgment by the system of completed installations and receipt of any C.O.D. amounts due to collect by the installer, the system processes a sub-contractor payment through the accounts payable
system.
