Goal: All Important Data Available in Real Time
“The introduction of the new software in our company aimed to solve three critical issues. We needed to move away from various isolated solutions that were not interconnected. Additionally, it was important for our field service team to have all the important data available in real-time while on the go, and for our route planning to be efficient and smooth.”
Important Improvements summarized
- Replacement of isolated solutions with a combined solution
- Mobile access to all data
- Reduction of manual effort by capturing all data in one place
- Simplified and digitized route planning
- Automation of order processing
Previous Condition: Work with 4 Different Island Solutions
Until now, we have been using four separate programs that were not interconnected. Working with these isolated solutions consumed a lot of time due to the necessary switching between applications and multiple data entries.
Another issue arose from the fact that we did not have articles and inventory in the traditional sense, as we deal with live animals. Consequently, it was a challenge to represent this uniqueness in the program while still considering various billing cycles.
Our route planning was also suboptimal. Many pieces of information and processes were not reflected in the system but rather stored in the minds of employees. As a result, there was an increased reliance on additional Excel spreadsheets and paper documents. These documents then had to be scanned again after processing to be sent via email. This process cost us a lot of time and resources and errors occurred too often.”
Challenges at a Glance:
- Working in four separate programs (time-consuming and error-prone)
- No access to real-time data while on the go
- No traditional articles and inventory (but live animals)
- Various billing cycles
- Suboptimal route planning
- Processes and information are not 100% represented in the system
Which Products are Used?
Result: An ERP Solution for All Processes
This has solved the interface problems. The programming effort has proven to be very worthwhile from our perspective.
Optimizing Field Service with the Anveo Mobile App
Through a mobile solution from Anveo, our field service team can now access real-time data. The data is continuously synchronized and immediately visible in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. This eliminates coordination processes: since the app was implemented, there have been fewer calls from field service employees. They can now pull much of the information they need from the program themselves. The reduction in calls saves time on both sides. In addition to flexible data retrieval options, we also have many analysis options with various Microsoft programs.
Improving Route Planning
Our route planning is now easier and more efficient. We automatically have an overview of all orders planned for a week. Previously, we had to create these manually. Additionally, route planning, including sending the plan to the responsible parties, is completely electronic through the system without any printouts. Here, once again, the significant advantage of Dynamics NAV over other ERP systems is evident, along with the integration of the solution with many other Microsoft programs.
Our conclusion is undoubtedly that Microsoft Dynamics NAV is perfectly tailored to our company. The company anaptis enabled the customization of the program, thus extending the standard package.”
