Integral definition of order flow

The solution can be configured to manage the order process from when the order is placed by the customer until it is delivered. To do this, the only thing that is required is to define the model of the logistical sequence that the orders face. This model is processed directly in the application, communicating with those involved through e-mail alerts.

Visual order management application

Orders can be tracked globally and viewed through an exclusive OMBE (Order Management Back End) system. This interface warns of order delays, communicates with the end customer, changes the status of the items and gives indications to employees about the status of each order.

He is prepared to manage conflict, question and communicate in a way that reduces human effort in order management.

Automated Management of Payments and Dispatch

To simplify the logistical work, electronic payments (via ATM, Credit Card or MBnet) can be automatic and calculated according to the delivered items, and the money is transferred without delay.

For orders against delivery the system generates PDF documents to be printed directly on the post office forms, with all the details of the client and sender, as well as the amounts involved in the order and delivery fees.

Partial deliveries

If an article is out of stock, the system allows the customer to be partially charged in order to expeditiously deliver the available articles while waiting for the missing articles. The shipping calculation is done automatically, and the customer is informed that part of the order has already been sent.

Advanced Features

Other functionalities can also be implemented, such as accounting entries in other systems, requisitions to suppliers in the case of stock out, sending SMS/Fax, local printing, etc...

About the technology

The ud121 platform is based on a LAMP architecture (Linux, Apache, MySql and PHP), used today in numerous success cases, which allows the implementation of fast, effective and robust systems, without the need for any licensing costs.
