So in our continuing “series” of videos for Manufacturers and Distributors, we’ve just done a video demo showing how certain manufacturers and distributors can manage Inventory on the Salesforce Platform using Accounting Seed.

Managing your inventory on the salesforce platform gives you a single place to store, analyze and manage your business data.

For many manufacturers, and distributors, inventory management can be a daunting task. ordering components, building finished goods, allocating inventory to orders, and then repeating the process on a large scale is a daunting task.

There is usually one option for this – integrate to your ERP. As we have said in many videos, this is possible and works well for most companies, but what if you want visibility to all of the data beyond sales data – Inventory by location, allocated vs on hold vs available? and – because its inventory – you want it to be real time? In many cases, because of the API’s to various ERP’s – this becomes impossible. Enter Accounting Seed…

And Accounting Seed has taken that flexibility and built a world class Accounting and Inventory Management solution – right on the platform.
