Vendor Management

Vendors that supply to your organisation are called 'Suppliers' and the vendors that supply to your clients and prospects are called 'Competitors'.

EFFICIENCY's Vendor Management Module holds all necessary information about products and services sold, marketed and maintained by suppliers and competitors.

When EFFICIENCY is used with a financial system, the data in this module can be updated from corresponding tables of the Accounts Payable module. The update may be performed at regular intervals as a Batch update or instantly via live link.

Some key points:

• Maintain the company, contacts and the communication details for suppliers and competitors.

• Maintain all the information about supplier and competitor products, including prices, discounts, last quoted values, technical details (character based or graphics) and direct reference to your products.

• Access to the technical and price details of supplier and competitor products when using the Quotation, Order Entry and Service modules.

• Update Product Cost and Prices based on the price changes of the supplier products.

• Maintain competitor performance against the quotations and orders.

• Attach unlimited data to each vendor record in the form of static, transactional, audio, video and graphics
