OVERVIEW

What This Means for You

Stock is often a company's largest asset after cash, and also one of the hardest to control. Too little stock loses sales; too much ties up money; and inaccurate records make every decision harder.

SAP Business One manages inventory in real time. Every receipt, issue, transfer and sale updates stock and its value immediately, across as many warehouses as you need. Items can be tracked by batch or serial number, in different units of measure, and valued by FIFO, moving average or standard cost.

Reorder levels, stock reports and cycle counts help you keep the right stock in the right place.

Webtel configures inventory management in SAP Business One around your process, using standard functionality first and add-ons or reports only where they add clear value. Your users test with real data before go-live, and we stay on hand as they start working in the new process.
