Microsoft Dynamics NAV in wholesale and trade.

Success Story:

As a wholesaler and retailer, Fliesen Hüning has been a reliable partner for many private and business customers for more than 50 years. The requirements for the ERP software had risen steadily over the years, so that the previous solution had reached its limits. New paths had to be created with Dynamics NAV and anaptis.

Initial situation

“The main problem was our old software, which we have been working with since 1999. Although it was easy to use, which was also the main criterion when it was introduced, it offered too few opportunities to manage the daily business satisfactorily. There were particularly strong shortcomings in the areas of logistics, controlling and purchasing.

It became increasingly difficult to manage inventories and the integration of batch management is unthinkable. There should be a fast and uncomplicated solution. First attempts by our old software supplier to implement the desired features using Typo 3 were not successful. A change of the ERP was therefore unavoidable.”

Challenges at a glance:

outdated software, which no longer meets the requirements
missing functionality in purchasing, controlling and logistics (e.g. stock cannot be managed, missing batch management)

Objective

“Our goal was to introduce a system that would map our day-to-day business satisfactorily. In particular, logistics, controlling and purchasing. We also needed to make it easier to manage our inventories and integrate batch management.”

The investment was necessary and we expect synergy potential in the medium and long term. NAV is an excellent tool with which the areas of CRM, controlling, logistics and purchasing can be managed very well. We hope that we will be able to react faster to changes in the market in the future and will always be one step ahead of the competition in terms of efficiency and innovations.

Result

„With anaptis, we have found the ideal partner for the introduction of software. The main reason for the collaboration was the professional approach and expert advice. Dynamics NAV has convinced us with the many features in the standard version. Anaptis then found out step-by-step with which adjustments the efficiency could be increased.

The team never lost sight of the practical aspect: the software should be easy to use. The project manager is extremely professional, competent and committed – this has been confirmed during and after the project. We are more than satisfied with the result.“

clear stock levels and easy management at various locations
