Solution Summary

Efficient Stock Management in Shoe and Leather Care

Euroleathers faced challenges in efficiently tracking supplier orders, customer deliveries, and stock levels for their shoe and leather care division, leading to potential errors and delays in order fulfilment. A mobile barcode scanning system was implemented to streamline the process of stock intake, order processing, and delivery, ensuring real-time tracking and improved accuracy.

Integration Between Order Processing and Invoicing

The company had separate processes for order management and invoicing, causing delays and inaccuracies in billing and potentially impacting cash flow and customer satisfaction.

The system was designed to seamlessly integrate order processing and invoicing, allowing for automated billing as soon as deliveries are completed, improving efficiency and customer experience.

Manual and Time-Consuming Stock Processes

The second system faced challenges in tracking leather stock in real-time, making it difficult to manage inventory levels, forecast demand, and ensure efficient use of resources.

The use of mobile barcode scanners streamlined the process, allowing real-time stock updates and reducing manual effort, improving accuracy and efficiency in inventory management.
