A successful office, regardless of its size, product line, or even customer base, relies on the effective use of a limited number of resources. Your employees, projects, supplies, equipment, and other assets are just a few of these resources that you need to keep a close eye on. With only so many hours in the day and only so much attention you can give to every minute detail of your operation, you need all of your resources working in harmony to keep your business running smoothly. And with proper inventory software for your office, you can capitalize on every resource at your disposal.

Inventory

Even the most basic supplies of paper and toner keep an office running smoothly, so don’t let a simple stockout be a bottleneck. Auto purchase orders allow you to set reorder points and keep your day-to-day necessities available. Incorporate barcoding with a wireless device and make your first count be your last. Order, receive, move, transfer, and ship items while your inventory management software updates your records in real time.

Assets

From cubicles to chairs to electronic equipment, you have a lot of things in your office that need to be tracked, in order to make the best use of them. Asset tracking allows you to keep tabs on each of your locations, maintenance schedules, leases, part transfers, and even product returns. Combined with individual part information and the ability to track from multiple locations, and you have immediate reckoning for every asset, with corresponding maintenance and, if applicable, production reports.

Statistics

Don’t let office reporting rely on guesswork. Rather, let accurately gathered data guide your directions. Through the use of custom reports, you can access customer and vendor purchase histories, shipping reports and updates, work orders that update inventory quantities and production stage completion in real time, as well as traveling work orders and assignments for users of the software. Let this information provide insight for what works and what can improve.

Accounting

Keep your accounting books, physical supplies, and key personnel all on the same page with a seamless integration between your inventory software and QuickBooks. No more double data entry. No more jumping between software platforms. Just easy-to-use inventory tracking and accounting brought together into a unified hub. Your accountants will thank you for this invaluable tool at their fingertips, and you will be thankful, too, at the positive effects you will see as a result of using this type of system. Your inventory and accounting data will have even fewer errors, because you will not have to enter the same data twice by manually typing it in, but you can scan a barcode and enter sales and purchase orders into the system, which will then send it directly to your accounting solution.
