Without having a good supply chain management, you will have a lack of coordination within the company along with disruptions to the supply of goods.<br />
<br />
An efficient system can help you find the various needs associated with the addition of stock reserves and can also help you in ensuring your company is able to sustain market demand for a product.<br />
<br />
This is very important in supply chain management because the delay in providing supplies will only cause your customers to switch to competitors to meet their needs for the products they want.<br />
<br />
Some common problems you might encounter in supply chain management are as follows<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>The loss of goods in some parts of the supply chain is one of the common problems faced by most companies. This loss can be caused by several factors including theft, misplacement and so forth. But with a supply chain management system can help you in finding the cause of the loss of the product.</li>
<br />
<li>Another problem is the amount of the required costs associated with manual stock recording. Some of the workforce may be needed by the company for the purpose of recording, especially for companies that handle large amounts of products in their daily life. In this case, there is also the possibility of a human error. Supply chain management software can help eliminate the problem by automating the calculation function.</li>
<br />
<li>Companies have difficulty predicting product demand on the market and may not know how much to order to accommodate market demand. Software supply chain management software generally has functions or useful features to help you in predicting business needs based on existing sales data</li>
</ol>

In fact, the ability of inventory management software to track inventory across supply chains and manage stock levels effectively is very important and necessary for all types of distributor companies.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGUArS1Hy2wSwwY3mkFxh1hdKnvArZPkkZgJjb4jYxMyC1mcfR50H7Tfb1TytqRbdUmw2edH8rpOQPl48MvPSO8Tj5PiBwxJHrKoDbPEo2Mbz356YmmxdbSeDXwCuIccN-3Cd2nkX-Joc/s1600/InventoryManagement2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="340" data-original-width="810" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGUArS1Hy2wSwwY3mkFxh1hdKnvArZPkkZgJjb4jYxMyC1mcfR50H7Tfb1TytqRbdUmw2edH8rpOQPl48MvPSO8Tj5PiBwxJHrKoDbPEo2Mbz356YmmxdbSeDXwCuIccN-3Cd2nkX-Joc/s640/InventoryManagement2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
However, it is important to note that this software solution offers more value to your organization. Consider the following benefits when you want to evaluate software for your inventory management.<br />
<br />
* <b>Complete visibility of your supply chain</b> - Once successfully implemented, the inventory management software can provide all information to the operational and overall product inflows and outflows and additional capabilities to narrow down the required details.<br />
* <b>Quality Management</b> - Errors and problems often occur when it comes to durable and non-durable goods. You may have to deal with broken packages, left behind in the charging rate, and postponement of delivery. The inventory software is able to determine and track the various problems that may occur and provide guidance relating to the factors that affect the quality of the goods.<br />
* <b>Planning and forecasting</b> - In addition to managing inventory levels in your warehouse, inventory software can also predict future capacity requirements. Inventory software can give you the right shade to determine the feasibility of launching regional warehouses near customers so as to improve service levels and improve work efficiency. Good inventory software can help you make that decision.<br />
* <b>Cost management</b> - Profitability of your business gained by the products that are on your shelf. As you increase inventory and manage it according to your needs in real time, your organization can benefit most from existing space.<br />
* <b>Efficiency and customer service</b> - Optimizing your inventory process can lead to the widely used efficiency for stock replenishment, shipping processing, and customer service (in other words, picking, packing and sending). All these efficiency improvements can be achieved without the need to add morestaff and certainly will not reduce the quality of the goods.<br />
* <b>Scale </b>- the inventory management software you use needs to grow according to the growth of your business. The inventory software ensures that your business can grow without the substantial increase in system or hardware costs. If you expand your customer base, introduce new products, or penetrate new markets, a good inventory software solution will always keep pace with your business.<br />
<br />
The value and strength of inventory software products is sometimes underestimated. Over the years, these inventory software solutions are complicated to use, impractical and provide limited capabilities. Therefore, some distributors distanced themselves from fear of making their operations more complex. But as time goes, now is not the problem anymore.<br />
<br />
Therefore, <a href="http://8thinktank.com/acumatica/change-your-inventory-management-to-the-better/">inventory management</a> software solutions can be perfectly integrated into the various business processes that exist. It is time you look well at your current operations and think about replacing or integrating inventory software into your current businessMellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13617554956551890315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4853661227664797315.post-56958737987346125012017-07-09T20:48:00.002-07:002017-07-09T20:48:55.837-07:00What Do You Know About General Ledger?General Ledger's topic may not be a topic that is so interesting to discuss. Even for some people, the general ledger is just one of the tedious lessons to be taken to graduate business school. But believe me, general ledger can be the answer to various business problems you might encounter.<br />
<br />
The general ledger has been around for centuries and plays an important role in completing 2 simple-looking tasks but in actual implementation quite difficult.<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>The general ledger allows us to track values over time. To be able to get account balance today is very easy, but to get a balanced balance on a day historically requires some sophistication.</li>
<li>General ledger knows the difference between balance and balance changes.</li>
</ol>
We've all learned about the three basic financial statements when we study accounting. The income statement reflects certain earnings and periods that affect owner's equity. The balance sheet shows the balance of assets and liabilities at all times. But what makes the general ledger interesting is the cash flow statement.<br />
<br />
A good general ledger should be able to retrieve the beginning balance in the period for the cash account, showing the impact of revenue and expenses for the period, and showing the final balance for the cash account. It's amazing how many low-end accounting products are struggling with this concept.<br />
<br />
Although GL (General Ledger) is very important, but in fact no one takes the time to innovate this until it reaches its full potential. And I think I have a theory of why it could be like that: I believe that over the past few decades, all the innovations in GL have been created by users of accounting software, not accounting software vendors. Accounting software vendors just listen to what users want and blindly give them what they ask without understanding the reason.<br />
<br />
It's time for vendors to step in and contribute to GL's innovation. The accounting system has been very good at generating financial statements, but the strength inherent in GL has begun to be ignored. Companies are looking for a more mature system that enables them to manage their finances as they see fit, without being forced into the box created by limited vendor capabilities. Users want more sophisticated functionality that is aligned with how to run their business, such as:<br />
<ul>
<li>Ability to run financial reports through various data sets</li>
<li>Company-specific dimensions that can be budgeted, managed and tracked, and so on</li>
</ul>

This serves to keep records of bank transactions, cash transactions, sales invoices, self payments and payments due.<br />
<br />
The cash management module also takes into account financial transactions that occur within a certain period of time. It is also useful to keep records of funds used by the company for various purposes. In essence, cash management offers real-time tracking for corporate balances.<br />
<h3>
Master Data Management</h3>
Maintaining a master database is an integral part of almost any cash management module such as:<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Tracking Payment / Receipt</b>: During this phase, payment / receipt is tracked by the module using the following parameters:<br />
<ul>
<li>Identify the payment mode, whether it is automatic or manual.</li>
<li>Determine the maximum amount of payments for various business partners in one batch.</li>
<li>Maintaining the directory of Bank account number / Bank address to receive or make payment.</li>
<li>The way payment can be through check or online.</li>
<li>Option to send payment or make big transaction.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Bank Relation</b>: This segment deals with the type of currency (domestic or foreign), the type of bank involved in the transaction and checks for blocked payments if any.</li>
<li><b>Integration with General Ledger</b>: This stage is largely concerned with integrating all aspects of payments under one roof. It also keeps records of payments or receipts to be realized such as checks that have been issued but can not be realized.</li>
<li><b>Payment Authorization</b>: This section specifies the maximum payment amount that a user can allow. It also determines whether a particular user is authorized to make a prepayment or not.</li>
</ul>
<h3>
Function</h3>
There are various functions in the cash management module. Some of its key features are listed below:<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Supplier Payments</b>: Flow diagrams for payment to suppliers are as given below. However, in the case of standing orders, payments and payments that are not in accordance with the pro forma bill, variations of this process may also occur.<br />
<ul>
<li>Selection and preparation of invoices to be prepared for payment.</li>
<li>Take a list of payment suggestions.</li>
<li>Modify the payment suggestion</li>
<li>Reconcile the amount of payment in accordance with invoice or payment suggestion.</li>
<li>Set a job to a specific bank.</li>
<li>Maintain bank check or bank order notes in electronic format.</li>
<li>Update the ledger as per the transaction.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Receipt of sales invoice</b>:<br />
<ul>
<li>Checks: Receives checks from customers, sends them to the bank, cleans checks by banks.</li>
<li>
</li>
<li>Direct Debit: This applies only to customers who have authorized to debit their bank account directly.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><b>Cash Flow Projection:</b> Cash flow projection can also be obtained by using cash management module with ERP system. This will provide a rough estimate of the financial wellbeing of the company on a certain date in the future based on current financial data</li>
</ul>

With this posting, it is expected to give you a clear explanation for beginner about what is purchase order.<br />
<h3>
What do you know about purchase orders?</h3>
Purchase order is a document sent by the buyer to the supplier which contains the order request in the form of type of goods, the quantity of goods, and the price has been agreed. The more complete and detailed the document, the more effective the purchase order process will be. When the supplier receives the order, a contract will be established between the buyer and the supplier.<br />
<br />
<h4>
What is the difference between purchase order and invoice?</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
In short, buyers make a purchase order. Then the seller prepares the invoice after payment has been received. In some cases, the buyer is given an invoice with a payment due date.<br />
<br />
In a purchase order and invoice has almost the same details. Basically, usually invoices always refer to the purchase order to ensure that both documents contain the same information. The difference lies in the technical details that exist in the purchase order but not in the invoices.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Why is a Purchase Order so important to a business?</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
Now try to imagine, what if the buyer receives their order, but the items received do not match the requested specifications? If the buyer does not have a purchase order that can be used as a reference, how do buyers and sellers determine where the error lies? That is why a purchase order is needed to avoid those kind of things.<br />
<br />
<h4>
Why is the manual procedure inefficient?</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
If your organization uses a paper in handling purchase orders or transactions or other activities, then you should be prepared to create a lot of documents. Just imagine, usually the company will make up to 7 documents in the manufacture of purchase orders. These include, requests, purchase orders, quotations, orders acknowledgments, advice notes, goods received notes, packing slips and invoices. And it's all just one purchase order, what if there is more than one purchase order? How many documents should you create?<br />
<br />
That's why a lot of erp software like <i><a href="http://8thinktank.com/acumatica">Acumatica Cloud ERP</a></i> are entering purchase order into their system so it can simplify the process as well as recording various transactions done in businessMellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13617554956551890315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4853661227664797315.post-44365691280730961052017-06-18T19:40:00.000-07:002017-06-18T19:40:32.525-07:00Some of Accounting Software That Circulate In IndonesiaDo you realize that in general, humans are a lazy creatures?

What kind of software is good to implement in our business?<br />
<br />
In determining the <a href="http://8thinktank.com/acumatica">ERP software</a> to be used, we should be careful and observant so that we can find out whether the software is qualified or not. Why? Because it will greatly affect business performance.<br />
<br />
Therefore, before you want to use a software, make sure the software has 6 criteria as follows.<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Meet The Standard Financial Statements</b></li>
This criterion is very important and must be owned by every company in presenting the financial statements. Therefore, you should be able to determine whether the software you want to use meets the financial report standard yet</ol>
<ol start="2">
<li><b>Easy Support Guarantee</b></li>
It is also very important to make sure, so we can get help easily and quickly.</ol>
<ol start="3">
<li><b>Flexible</b></li>
The purpose of the word flexible here is the software resistance to pressure and changes that can occur at any time in the company.</ol>
<ol start="4">
<li><b>Budget</b></li>
When we want to buy something of course must be adjusted with the existing budget right?</ol>
<ol start="5">
<li><b>Easy to Learn</b></li>
The better a software or more features used, usually the software will be more complicated in pengoprasiannya because of the many menus available. Usually the software will provide a demo that we can use to see how to operate it.</ol>
<ol start="6">
<li><b>Using The Latest Technology</b></li>
If the technology used by the software is the latest technology, then the duration of its use will become longer. In addition, the software can adapt to the development of new operating system tenologi.</ol>
If viewed from the above criteria, surely it can help set aside some existing software so that the right software - really able to accommodate the various needs of our business.
