Challenges:
During the growth of the company, the following needs arised:
- Automated backbone system
- Recording the data for better managerial decisions.
- They did not have an integrated system for each department which made it tough to coordinate.
Solutions
The major requirement was a complete transformation of the system to an automated and integrated system for better management of the entire business.
- 1. End to end purchase Process including Indent, Purchase Order & GRN. We have captured the end to end process in SAP – right from the beginning of Raw Jute/Stores Items when it first arrived in the factory , to the overall Purchase Process. This sets a standard purchase process.
- In SAP B1 we have maintained stage wise Production which ensures a set standard of production and good quality products.
- Earlier they did not have any integrated processes for Raw Jute, Stores , Sales and Production , after implementing SAP B1 now they have a total integrated process for all the departments. This has eliminated data duplicacy and ease of information access
- After implementing SAP, now they have better traceability and tracking of every Raw Jute, Stores Items in the system, which was not possible in their previous software.
- E- Invoicing for Sales Invoice/ Debit Note /Credit Note . This helps them generate IRN No & QR Code in a single click.
- We have also implemented Export related Documentation i.e. Custom Invoice, Commercial Invoice, Packing list, Single Country Declaration, Packing Declaration etc.
- Inter departmental dependency also reduced, now with the development of department specific reports, the one department can access all the desired /required reports from SAP directly .
- Different MIS reports can be procured as per management requirement , which helps the management to analyze their business in a better way.
The implementation of SAP correctly has ultimately led to an increase in cost efficiency, Saves time for the employees and also reduces manual & repetitive tasks and also helps in identifying challenges for productivity of both humans and machines.
