Efficient purchase processing for superior quality, reduced shelf life and enhanced profitability
Cost-effective purchases, focused costs
The effects of globalization on markets, intense
competition and adverse economic conditions have
highlighted the need for efficient procurement
management as never before. Previously, emphasis
was on getting generous amounts of materials and
intermediate goods to warehouses in a timely manner,
with only shipping and storage costs to worry about.
Now, materials must meet ever increasing quality
specifications, must be procured just-in-time, and must
be delivered even faster.
The CANIAS ERP Purchasing Module delivers all the
sophisticated features required by contemporary
markets. It covers the entire range of purchasing
activities including conventional purchasing methods,
automated order organization, monitoring of order
processing, control of materials received and account
verification.
Efficient tools for managing all aspects of the procurement process
Taking into account the European Common Market
legislation as well the wider market requirements,
the CANIAS ERP Purchasing module offers advanced
functionality in line with superior quality expectations
for procurement. These include: Electronic query
management, supplier price lists, price comparisons
based on supplier price lists, bidding management,
order monitoring including approval, reminder and warning features, materials tracking by serial numbers
and lot IDs, account management features, and
monitoring of invoice payments.
Purchasing features and related data are integrated
with other CANIAS ERP system modules. It is also
possible to allocate all order items against projects,
cost centers, cost objects, sales orders, and
production orders.
As it is the case with other CANIAS ERP system
modules, the Purchasing module provides businesses
with advanced analytical tools. Documents and reports
can be customized to specific needs.
