It is no surprise that mistakes are made with manual entry. Errors are expensive – but it doesn’t have to be! Automating your sales order process has the potential to cut lead times to your customers and the cost of processing orders, significantly impacting the order to cash flow cycle.
With EDI your orders are identified, captured, interpreted and transferred into your ERP system. It’s fast and accurate. Validation is automated and issues with price, availability and replacement productions are identified, reducing the need for more staff time. The result? Improved cash flow for your company and improved customer service.
Automating the order process allows you access to accurate order details so that your customer service staff can attend to customers’ questions immediately, resolve issues and track down orders. It also allows them to make changes as warranted. This allows you to view a clear trail of the order process such as sales order volume, times spent on each and order backlog. You eliminate misplaced or duplicate orders which leads to minimizing late deliveries and complaints.
