Do any of these problems sound familiar?
- Lacking a powerful and flexible allocation module?
- Inability or difficulty handling bulk and release orders?
- Inadequate credit control capability?
- Inability to automatically generate a consolidated invoice?
- Poor product support?
- Weak or non-existent EDI integration?
Powerful and flexible allocation
– With over 500 user parameters, ChainDrive Wholesale
Footwear is configured to your needs and in most cases doesn’t
require any customization. ChainDrive Wholesale Footwear includes
a powerful and flexible Allocation module that can help you
automate much of this process, allowing you to focus on the
exceptions. You could do a batch allocation based on
predefined parameters (such as customer shipping priority
code, start ship date, cancel date, order and/or style percent
complete, etc.). The customer’s credit status is automatically
checked, preventing a pick ticket from being generated for
a customer that is not credit approved. You can also easily
process immediate shipments whereby you can select specific
orders for distribution.
Bulk Orders
- ChainDrive Wholesale Footwear has the ability to accept Bulk
Orders via EDI and manually and also release orders (store distributions)
manually or through EDI. If you need to change a ship-to on
a “distro” order after it’s been created from
the bulk, you would simply go into the Mass Change function
and select the “Change Ship-to” option. There’s
no need to cancel and re-enter orders. The bulk order is automatically
reduced as each distro order is created.
Auto Credit
- ChainDrive Wholesale Footwear has a powerful Auto Credit function
which includes a nightly process that reassigns credit approvals
based on the most current order and credit information and based
on extensive user selectable Client Control parameters. As the
information is processed in the required delivery date sequence,
the first orders to be shipped will receive available credit.
A pick ticket will not be created for an order that is on credit
hold or over credit limit.
Consolidated Invoicing
- ChainDrive Wholesale Footwear has a standard feature for Consolidated
Invoicing by customer and then by purchase order number. This
process allows you to send one invoice to a customer for one
PO even if you shipped to multiple stores. The consolidated
invoice summarizes by store for PO verification and the total
will be the same as if separate invoices were produced for each
store. All pick tickets or bills of lading would be processed
and shipped as normal. The consolidation only takes place in
the invoice print/update and feed to A/R process. Invoice numbers
are assigned to each pick list in the shipping process. The
new consolidated invoice will be cross-referenced from each
of the original invoices. Only the consolidated invoice is fed
to A/R or EDI. You control what paper is sent to the customer.
This is a summary of the improvement and significant benefits
that ChainDrive Wholesale Footwear will bring to your organization.
