# Access SupplyChain

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/239744/access-supplychain-erp

> Buildable, scalable manufacturing ERP software.

The Access SupplyChain ERP brings all your financial, MRP, and production software together in one cloud-based platform.

Key features of Access SupplyChain ERP include:

1. Marketing, estimating, and sales -

• Customer relationship management: gives your sales reps instant access to customer information; because CRM is part of a cloud ERP system, all the information they need is available to them on the move,
either via a browser or the Access Workspace app. CRM also allows your marketing team to manage data and analyze trends using every piece of data throughout the system; from the range of products a customer has
purchased over time, to geographical hotspots for your business.

• Improved customer communication: from the automated order confirmation, requests for feedback, and delivery updates, you can set up email communications to be triggered at specific points in your customer
journey.

• Estimates and quotes: using either actual costs or standardized costs, the estimating module will pull data from the stock record, where the real costs of purchasing and manufacturing can be rolled up. This provides you with total control over margins and pricing consistency, with additional facilities for special customer price lists or discounts, and approval settings
for specific products or pricing outside of standard criteria.

2. Manufacturing and operations -
• Product configurator: a bill of materials and routing for every part will be created so that purchasing demands are accurate and scheduling is realistic. Resources (tools, skills, equipment) are specified so that they can be allocated during planning.

• Project management: to maintain control of costs, resources and to track allocated time, functionality designed specifically for capital projects is included. This is ideal for businesses that run longer-term high-value projects, or to collate data for development
work into a single bucket.

• Stock and warehouse management: this provides total control over stock locations (for both single and multiple sites), inventory, lots and  batches, and traceability through your own and your sub-contractors
processes. Barcodes, RFID, and voice capture devices integrate with this module for usability. Optimum stock levels can be maintained using real-time demand, forecasting, and minimum safety levels, and can be managed in line with concepts such as JIT.

• Scheduling and production management: visual Gantt chart style software allows for intuitive scheduling around shift patterns, skillsets and equipment constraints, providing the most effective production plan and delivering a work-to list direct to workstations or individuals.

• Shop floor data collection and job costing: the amount of time spent on any production activity is logged through touchscreens at workstations for improved efficiency and accurate costing. Machine downtime,
unproductive working hours and scrap levels can all be monitored to enable the measurement of OEE.

• Purchasing and supplier management: POs can be raised automatically, deliveries tracked and managed, and invoices matched with PO receipts for traceability. If your ultimate goal is effective supply chain management, ERP software is the right solution with which to do this.

• Traceability for QA: raw material can be tracked at individual lot level to ensure full traceability of every component throughout the manufacturing process, including who made, inspected, and approved an individual product.

3. HR and accounts -

• Debtor management: automated invoicing and statements allow for close management of customer payments and credit control, with the easy maintenance of credit terms and better control over your cash flow.

• Human resources: attendance and shift pattern set-ups allow closer people management and identification of issues as well as more accurate and immediate payroll information.
