Inventory Control

Protecting Your Investment in Inventory

Make Every Inventory Dollar Count!

Inventory….the bane of the VAR’s existence!

Inventory obsoletes almost as fast as it takes to ship it, so control is critical. Changing prices require serialized tracking of inventory; FIFO and LIFO just won’t cut it in the technology industry. You need to drop ship this order, but this one needs to be configured. Partial billings are okay for this client, but the next wants ship complete. Did you get the special bid price, what about the rebate? Don’t forget the EDI reporting so you can maximize your backside dollars. And all of this tracking when you don’t even want inventory. Yet, these issues and many others require an accounting package with a robust inventory tracking system… SouthWare^_®'s Inventory Control is the answer.

When you have a large inventory you must manage your inventory well if you want a successful business. Your inventory is just like stacks of dollar bills sitting around - you've got to make sure they don't "walk off" and you can't afford to leave them sitting idle for too long.
