Distributors everywhere, large and small, are facing a multitude of challenges from continually changing customer demands and complicated product inventories to supply chain changes. To navigate this challenging time in the market, it’s essential that distributors find a distribution management ERP that they can count on. To help wholesalers find the best distribution software available we’ve compiled a list of the top must-read articles on the subject.
Successful wholesale businesses know what their customers want and keep their inventory optimized at all times. As a wholesaler, implementing the right distribution ERP is a critical component in ensuring your operations are streamlined, and inventory management is enhanced. Here are a few of the features to look for when selecting a distribution management ERP solution for your wholesale distribution business.
For wholesale distributors, an ERP must be accurate as to the quantity of any item on hand and the location of each item. It also must make sure every item is stored in the best bin location so that it can be quickly picked and shipped.
Many wholesalers go beyond merely storing inventory for their customers. Often they perform final assembly of products. For wholesale distributors to offer this light manufacturing to customers, their distribution management solution should include the bill of materials and assembly jobs features.
It’s essential that the ERP you choose allows the use of multiple warehouses, including those operated by other businesses. ERP for a warehouse business should enable orders to be shipped from any warehouse but generally will default to a single shipment from the same warehouse.
