Materials management
Basic materials management functions like needs analysis and stores management are the key to successful sales, optimized purchasing conditions and cost-effective production. proALPHA guarantees full synchronicity of materials and value flows in the overall system. Inventories, inventory changes and materials consumption are mapped identically in both the financial and cost accounts.
In addition to conventional multiple site management, random access stores management and the special functions of goods received and quarantine stores are supported. Batch management is essential for many companies, at the same time acting as a quality assurance tool. proALPHA allows seamless tracing of batch origin and use.
Materials planning supports all known needs analysis processes for end products, modules, bought-in parts and operating supplies. The planning account gives a continuously updated period-based view of needs, while hypothetical inventory extrapolation provides immediate information on future delivery availability.
As well as data for inventory cut-off date, proALPHA supports all acknowledged inventory processes. Valuation of the company's own finished and unfinished products is exceptionally flexible and easy to use.
