Order entry software is designed to give you a centralized set of tools to manage your business from inventory to delivery. A web-based order entry platform offers you flexibility and convenience. Let’s take a look at five of the reasons you will love having a web-based system for your business:
1. Automation
As a business owner, you know that the adage “time is money” is very true. The growth of your business means more paperwork, more data entry, and increased workloads for your employees. Order entry software reduces this by automating much of the process, freeing you and your employees to focus on customer needs. This automation leads directly to the second reason to love this beneficial software:
2. Reduces Errors
Besides taking up employee time, manually entering and re-entering data creates the opportunity for human error. Every time information has to be re-entered, the possibility of error grows. An order entry system automatically populates data where needed, eliminating manual entry errors. In addition to data re-entry, handwritten sales orders can create a problem – which leads to reason number three:
3. Provides Clarity, Convenience, and Speed
An order entry system solves the problem of deciphering handwritten notes and order forms from your sales reps or customers. Being web-based, your customers can create and check their orders whenever and wherever they wish. With web-based forms, orders are clear and instantaneous. Your customers and sales reps can access information in real time without waiting for replies or being held to your business hours. Since the order entry software automates the process, the orders are fulfilled and delivered faster and more efficiently. This convenience and speed lead to the number four reason to love it:
4. Gives You a Competitive Edge
Money and time saved on administrative duties through an order entry system can be put to better use to sustain and grow your business. You will have happier customers because they know there is less chance of error in their orders and will appreciate the system's convenience. A happy customer is a loyal customer. Customers can get order questions answered themselves, which means less back-office work for your employees, yet customer service won’t suffer. With less paperwork, sales reps can spend more time selling, and with access to customer records, they will understand customer needs better.
