Important change affecting auto-warehousing

Readysell

November 25, 2015

For our Readysell 8 customers utilising our auto-warehousing features, we’d like to make you aware of a change in the logic around how back orders are handled that will be in place starting tomorrow. This change is necessary to ensure consistency within Readysell and to make auto-warehousing work with additional customer back order scenarios.

If a customer card was set to not allow sales back orders, auto-warehousing used to wait until 100% of the sale order was allocated. In some cases this was not be ideal. As a result, we have changed the way Auto-warehouse handles customers that do not allow sales back orders. There are now two ways of handling customers that don’t want back orders:

Turn off the Back Order Allowed check-box
- As soon as one shipment is posted for the sale order, the sale order’s status will be changed to “Cancelled“
- Any order lines that were not supplied by the first sale shipment will never be supplied
- Auto-warehousing will:
  - wait until the sale order reaches the Min Allocation %, just like any other orders
  - wait after releasing one shipment. It will not release any more shipments for the order as long as one shipment exists for the order
Set the Max Shipments/Sale to 1
- The system will not allow any shipments for the order until all of the lines on the order are fully allocated
- Once all the lines are allocated, Auto-warehouse will release a sale shipment for the full amount ordered on all the sale order lines

More details (including screenshots of where to find these settings) can be found on our wiki.

Readysell 8.30: Work it harder, make it better…

Readysell

November 18, 2015

In Readysell 8.30, rolling out to all of our Readysell 8 customers over the next few days, we’ve continued our focus on improving the usability of the service module, addressed some long-standing requests from our backlog and added new integrations to help streamline your business processes.

Reduce costs and improve customer satisfaction with toner tracking

We’ve added toner tracking to our service module. Whenever you sell toner supplies to a customer, we’ll keep track of the sale so that you know how many toners your customer has used and how how long it’s lasted. We’ve even integrated FM Audit so that Readysell can automatically generate an order when toner levels are getting low.

Streamline your payroll process with Readysell Payroll

Today we’re introducing Readysell Payroll, powered by KeyPay. Readysell Payroll is an online payroll system designed to make payroll simpler. It’s quick to set up, easy to use, affordable and fully integrated into your Readysell system. With unique features such as a cloud-based employee portal, time and attendance and automated superannuation, Readysell Payroll can drastically reduce your payroll overheads. Contact us today to learn more.

Automate your meter read imports with Print Audit integration

To ensure our customers have a range of options when it comes to Managed Print Services (MPS) systems, we’ve added support for Print Audit. With a variety of scan, fax and copy tracking tools, Print Audit has solutions ranging from externally connected hardware terminals to software that runs directly on supported photocopiers.

Avoid keying errors and customer frustration with web-based count capture

To improve ease-of-use and reduce user error, we’ve introduced an option to send customers a web link for meter count collection (instead of asking customers to reply to emails). Each customer has their own unique web link where they can update their meter counts at any time.

Reduce errors and streamline end-of-month with automated period maintenance

We’ve received feedback that opening and closing periods can be a hassle, and if forgotten, can lead to errors such as back-dated transactions. Readysell will now automatically open periods and automatically close periods once they have been completed.

Don’t forget!

A quick reminder about our post last week. With this version of Readysell, our minimum .NET Framework requirement has been updated to version 4.6. If you do not have an up-to-date .NET Framework, you will be unable to open Readysell on your PC. If you are unsure of what version of .NET you are running – we have created a small utility you can use. Download and run this utility to ensure you’re up to date, or to get you started on the upgrade process if you’re not.

Questions or comments?

Our documentation is in the process of being updated to reflect the latest changes, but we know that it can be tough to wrap your head around what’s new and how it affects you. Please open a ticket through our Support Centre and we’ll be happy to help you out.

Readysell 8 Reporting Update

Readysell

October 21, 2015

We’re pleased to announce the release of the Readysell reporting best practices and standard reports.

Over the last few months we’ve been working hard in conjunction with the Office Brands ERP Steering Committee to develop and document a set of standard reports, ranging from transactional and operational reporting through to high-level management reports. In line with the Readysell reporting module, we have documented these standard reports in three key areas:

Form Reports

List Reports

Analysis Reports

We’ve also documented some best practices for reporting to help you decide which type of report to use in which scenario. In summary:

You may not need a report, often list views, particularly saved view variants, can give you live report like features without having to run a separate report.
Use form reports most of the time when you need a report. Particularly when you need presentation quality, external reports or custom calculations.
Use analysis reports to supplement form reports for things like ad-hoc reporting, cross tab views of your data, your custom management reporting requirements or where it is necessary to “drill into” the data in more depth.
Use list reports in special cases where you can’t get the result you want from a list view.

Over the coming months we will be sending a series of emails highlighting how you can deliver concrete benefits to your business by using the Office Brands standard reports. We also plan to make presentations about the Office Brands standard reports at the road show in early 2016.

In order to get the most benefit out of the Office Brands standard reports:

Consider referring to the reporting best practices documentation when you need a new report. You can save time and potential charges by using one of the standard reports where appropriate.
Keep an eye on our ongoing updates about reporting, there is sure to be one or two points that could help your business.
Get to the Office Brands roadshow in 2016. This is your chance to get some reports training and face to face discussion on how to benefit from those reports.
Schedule an hour or two report training with Readysell each year, to ensure you are up to date with all the latest developments.

If you have any questions that you’d like addressed, please contact Readysell support and let us know.
