Powerful, Flexible

The stock control screen is user configurable so extra information can be added or non-applicable information removed. Up to six screens of stock information can be added and searched on.

Unique Tracing & Tracking

Stock control also supports Unique Stock Tracing, the ability to maintain serial/batch numbers, sizes, colours, styles, and up to 250 user definable ‘extended’ properties. Unique Stock Tracing allows CAPITAL to handle tracking challenges such as stock consigned from suppliers, product versions/revisions, multiple bin locations, variations in purchase prices from suppliers and many other applications. CAPITAL can automatically create purchase orders based on low stock levels, customer orders, sales history (performance) and back orders. Lead times and supplier minimum order quantities are also considered. In organisations where ordering is a major task, up to 90 per cent of the manual work can be eliminated.

Stock Kits

Stock kits allow you to assemble an unlimited number of components that can be combined in a single stock item, then sold or ordered as required. To use an example, a company distributing chemicals might purchase in thousands of litres, then re-package and sell in 50 litre, 5 litre and 1 litre containers. Stock levels can be managed effortlessly both for the original quantity of chemical and the supplies of containers. Kits can also be ‘exploded’ directly onto transactions, providing an instant way to input a set of product codes. They can also be used to create an unlimited number of short-cut codes and cross-references to other products. For example, a 20 character part number could be given a two or three digit short reference. When the short reference is entered, the full product code and its details appear. Kits may also be embedded within other kits and there is no limit to the number of levels of embedding you can create.

Assembly Management

Many firms involved in manufacturing, engineering and repair, often need to modify or add value to stock they already own, or perhaps assemble components into a new product, or strip or disassemble a product into its component parts. When serial, batch or engine numbers are involved, the task can be even more complex to manage. The Assembler is designed to take the hard work out of these processes. Assembly tasks can also be customer order driven, hence automatically generated.

Stock Archives

If your organisation deals with large price lists, spare parts catalogues or handles essentially the same product under different part codes, then CAPITAL's cross-referencing and computerised ‘microfiche’ features will prove essential. If your supplier has a price list data file, CAPITAL can either merge it into your existing inventory, or keep it separate from your stock file but have it readily available for searching from within stock control. Import price lists in a variety of formats (ASCII, CSV, Excel, dBASE, etc.) You can also place old or rarely needed stock in archives. Performance is not affected when printing reports or automatically generating purchase orders, etc., as huge data files are managed separately.

Stock Forecasting

Inventory requirements forecasting based on sales history (average turn-over), current stock levels, back orders, deliveries pending, lead time and minimum supplier order units. Let the system calculate your reorder levels for you.

Warehouse Management

Fully integrated with CAPITAL's Warehouse Management System.
