SAP Business One: Innovation tendencies in ERP design

If you are in the process of new small business ERP selection, implementation: business processes mapping, customization requirements, add-ons evaluation, then you should definitely review SB1, as this system has astonishing flexibility, intuitive user interface and good openness for integration and reporting. 

Let’s review some cool feature, without being too technical:

1.       Built-in CRM.  SAP BO has pretty surprising and advanced Client Relation Management functionality, where you begin sales process with the lead and then attach opportunity to the prospect or customer.  You can associate quotes and orders with the opportunity to make sales process transparent for supervisors and convenient for salespeople

2.       Picking and Packing.  Yes, SB1 has robust inventory and warehouse management functionality, where you track your shipments by boxes, if required

3.       Production or Manufacturing.  Here, you have surprising functionality – Disassembly Production Order.  This order allows you to get back assembled item, disassemble it and place components back on inventory shelves and bins

4.       MRP wizard.  This functionality helps you in inventory replenishment.  At the same time it doesn’t require you to have advanced degree in discrete manufacturing.  Couple of hours of training will do the job.

5.       Service Contracts.  Here you have such functionality as transfer to technician and return from technician – you may consider these inventory transfers as base for rental logic implementation

6.       Integrated eCommerce module.  If you are launching new e-commerce store, you can take advantage of integrated SB1 ecommerce module

7.       Accrual vs. Cash basis financial reports comparison.  Let’s have this nice feature to conclude this small article
