The company is experiencing delays in order fulfillment and multi-channel operations due to an aged on-premise ERP. The company needs to replace it with a scaled cloud-based solution that enables real-time visibility in finance, inventory, and sales
The on-premise ERP that was old and spreadsheet-intensive order processing, a higher error rate, and more difficulties in managing day-to-day operations all made the existing processes more difficult
Isolated finance, inventory, sales and supply chain systems also resulted in leaders not having a real time unified perspective of orders, stock and margins
Teams could only access systems on-site constraining flexibility and slowing the approvals and responses in high season periods or emergency cases
The growing order volumes, new SKUs and new channels strained the ERP, and it was hard to manage the growth unless it was highly customized using expensive methods
Dynamics 365 Business Central brings together finance, sales, purchasing, and inventory into one and provides teams with a real-time overview of orders and stock
Workflows such as order capture, allocation, invoicing and reporting are automated which lessens the amount of manual labor, faults and delays in fulfillment
Cloud deployment is a secure entry anywhere or on any device that assists managers and teams to take swift action even in high season
The solution is designed to scale with the business, allowing support of increased transaction volumes, new SKUs and new channels without extensive custom development
Built-in AI forecasting and customized reporting enhance the inventory planning, optimal matching of stocks and demand and provide executives with clear and actionable information
