Customise to your
needs
The ability to easily create and customise your entry screens and documents
means that you can tailor the system to suit your needs. For example,
you can:
- Tailor order entry screen layouts, with as
much or as little information as you need
- Customise “zoom in” screens for extra
information (for example, stock status)
- Unlimited form designs for invoices, statements,
picking and delivery dockets
- Choose the number of decimal places in prices and
costs, and much more

No more “out of stock” lost
sales
What do you do if you’re taking a customer order and there's too
little stock to fill it? You might know of similar products that you
could suggest, but do new staff or casuals? With Attaché, you
can easily look up a list of alternative products, complete with stock
levels, prices and comments. Particularly if your business employs casual
staff or deals with thousands of products lines (for example, spare parts)
being able to link alternative products can turn enquiries into sales.

Powerful back-order facility
The comprehensive back-order facility handles items that are not available.
Back-orders can be manually or automatically generated into orders
once stock is received, and selected by product, delivery date range,
location, customer range or selected customers.
|
Invoicing negative stock
Attaché removes one of the major frustrations of some “off
the shelf” systems by allowing you to sell stock that you know
you have, even when the system says you are out of stock, without the
need to adjust stock levels first.
|
Advanced sales
analysis
Any combination of customer code, location, product group and the three
customer sales categories can be selected to provide simple or complex
sales reports. Customised reporting can be developed using Attaché ODBC to
extract data into spreadsheets or specialist reporting tools such as PowerLink or
Presenter. Whilst detailed analysis of sales opportunities, sales staff
and sales mix is available using Salesmatrix.
|
Services
Attaché lets you standardise the descriptions of services by creating
service items. This speeds up data entry, reduces errors, and assists
with the reporting and sales analysis of services provided. You can even
add additional descriptions using comment lines.
|
Run
numbers
Attaché enables you to print picking slips, delivery notes and
invoices in run number sequence. This makes it easier to pick and deliver
goods to customers, saving time, delivery costs, and provides drivers
with more time to sell.
|
Multiple
delivery addresses
Each customer can have an unlimited number of delivery addresses, from
which you can select during order entry.
|
Head
office accounts for split delivery/billing
The head office facility means that goods can be delivered to a branch
while the invoice and statement are sent to head office. Sales details
remain by branch.
