Previous Issue: The CRM system might have inaccurately displayed the stock levels of components, such as circuit boards.
Consequence: A salesperson could commit to selling 100 units only to discover later that there is a shortage of circuit boards. This halts production and leads to customer dissatisfaction.
Solution with GUMU™: By using GUMU™, the salesperson can see how many circuit boards there are in real time before saying yes to the order.
Outcome: This makes sure the team making things has what they need to finish the order on time, making things go well.
Optimize Lead-to-Cash performance of orders: With the integration of orders in Dynamics CRM and Sage ERP, the manufacturer can make sure that every order is worked on fast and well. This makes it faster to serve customers.
For example, a furniture manufacturing company can use the integrated system and send orders from Dynamics CRM into Sage ERP at once. This means with the help of GUMU™ integration, the company making the furniture can start fast, so customers do not have to wait long for their orders.
Enhanced Production Scheduling: Integration enables accurate time management of products since resource availability can be managed in line with the current market data. This helps to ensure that production runs are kept to the shortest possible time to enhance efficiency greatly.
Products that can be achieved in this integration include the ability of an electronics manufacturer to link sales forecasts from Dynamics CRM with production plans from Sage ERP. This allows them to coordinate their production to match the increased demand for such goods as mobile phones during festive occasions.
Quality Control: Increase efficiency in product quality management since data must be integrated and can track issues such as defects, customer complaints, and suppliers’ performance. Such information can be useful when deciding about refinement of quality as well as the choice of suppliers.
