MAKING A PURCHASE SHOULD BE EASY! Then why is that not always the case in ERP applications? In many big companies every employee is from time to time a purchaser. Overtime food, flowers for the anniversary, a new mobile phone, a new pc bag and so on. These are all purchases that in an ideal world should be registered as such in the ERP system.

With SharePoint being the frontend and IFS as your backend, this is now possible. With considerable experience and thought, our product greatly simplifies these processes. For the end user data input is quick, accurate, and as easy as possible.

The big challenge is that users performing purchases like this most likely do it rarely, thus they might not be familiar with how it is done in the purchasing system. 

We decided to solve this challenge by finding out what works when it comes to online purchasing. And the answer is rather obvious; web stores. Everyone is used to making purchases through online shops. So why not make the purchasing process of your ERP system look like a web store? Well, that is exactly what we have done. The backend is still the traditional purchase requisition or order. But the front end is an easy to use web store directly in your SharePoint intranet! 

QUICK PURCHASE

What are the most time consuming purchases your organization have? Through many interviews we have found that surprisingly this is not the big professional purchases you do on a regular basis. It is the small, non important purchases of for instance flowers for an employee’s birthday or the new pc bag for your sales rep. In amount these are small, but in volume they are big. And these purchases are often also handled manually, outside the normal purchase process of requisition/order. The solution to this challenge is here; Din ERP quick purchase. A simple process to help you utilize your ERP system for all kinds of purchases!
