➢ Product and survey :-

• What is Oracle?

It’s database is also known as simply Oracle also. It is a multi-model rational database management
system, mainly designed for enterprise grid computing and data warehousing. It is one of the first
choices for enterprises for cost-effective solutions for their applications and data management. It
supports SQL as a query language to interact with the database.

Oracle designs, manufactures, and sells both software and hardware products as well as offering
services that complement them (such as financing, training, consulting, and hosting services). Many of
the products have been added to oracles portfolio through acquisitions.

Oracle’s E-delivery service (oracle software Deliver cloud) provides generic downloadable oracle
software and documentation.

• History of oracle company :

Larry Ellison co-founded oracle corporation in 1977 with Bob Miner and ED Oates under the name
software Development Laboratories (SDL). Ellison took inspiration from the 1970 paper written by
Edgar F. Codd on Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) named “A Relationship Model of
Data for large shared Data Banks. He heard about the IBM system R database from an article in the IBM
Research journal provided by Oates. Ellison wanted to make oracles product compatible with system R,
but failed to do so as IBM kept the error codes for their DBMS a secret. SDL changed its name to
Relation software, Inc(RSI) in 1979, then again to oracle systems corporation in 1983 ,to align itself more
closely with its flagship product oracle Database. At this stage Bob Miner served as the company’s senior
programmer. On March 12,1986,the company had it’s inital public offering.

In 1995,oracle systems corporation changed its named oracle, but sometimes referred it’s named
oracle, corporation, the name of the holding company

• Why do We Use Oracle?


It is a database management software product. A database contains an organized collection of
information. A database management system is not only used for storing the data but to effectively
manage it and provides high performance, authorized access and failure recovery features. It provides a
software solution that is easy to use and manage database operations, from personal to Enterprise level
applications.

• A Breakdown of oracle versions :-


▪ Version 10:- In 2004,oracle corporation shipped release 10g (g stand for grid) as the latest
version of oracle database. Application server 10g using JAVA EE integrated with the server part
of that version of the database. The application server was the first middle -tier software
designed for grid computing. The interrelation ship between oracle 10g and Java allowed
developers to set up stored procedures written in the Java language, those written in the
traditional oracle database programming language PL/SQL.
▪ Version 11g:- Released back in 2008 version 11g is an older release of the oracle database
versions.
▪ Version 12c:- In 2014,oracle officially released version 12c, which is the first in the C series,. This
High-performance RDBMS is designated with a C instead of G as its the first version of oracle
designed to work on the cloud. This Oracle version makes it super easy for businesses to
transition their existing oracle database information to the cloud. This version has 500 new
features into the oracle database. Most notable features are the pluggable database and
multitenant architecture.
▪ Version 18C:- Is one of the latest version to be released as an autonomous database. This self-
driving database is self-securing and self-repairing. This was released in 2018.
▪ The latest Oracle version, the 19c was released in early January 2019.Its been noted as the long
term release for the 12.2 product family of oracle database. This particular version will be
supported through 2023,with extended support available until 2026.

Oracle Database is an RDBMS. An RDBMS that implements object-oriented features


such as user-defined types, inheritance, and polymorphism is called an object-relational
database management system (ORDBMS). Oracle Database has extended the relational
model to an object-relational model, making it possible to store complex business models
in a relational database.

Oracle is a tool in the Databases category of a tech stack.

Oracle ( ORCL ) is one of the largest software player in the world, and competes with SAP
( SAP ), Microsoft ( MSFT ) and IBM ( IBM ) in this market. After acquiring Sun Microsystems in
2010, Oracle became a hardware player as well with products pertaining to enterprise servers
and storage hardware business. It competes mainly with IBM and HP ( HPQ ) in the hardware
business. Here we will analyse the three most important segments for Oracle and the value that
each contributes to our $38.16 price estimate for Oracle stock . Our price estimate stands about
20% above market price.

▪ The 3 Most Important Product Segments for Oracle

1) Database software - represents 37% of the company's stock value


Database is a data storage mechanism, which stores data logically and physically in the form of
data files. Front-end applications access the database to display data online. Oracle is the
largest player in the database software market with a market share of close to 50%.

2) Middleware software - 25%

Middleware is a portfolio of software products used to build and deploy software applications.
Oracle sells its suite of middleware products under the brand name "Oracle Fusion Middleware."
It acts as an interface between front-end applications like web-based applications-and back-end
applications like the database.

3) Application software - 24%

Oracle applications are the applications used by enterprises for employing cost-cutting
mechanisms and increasing sales. These include applications like customer relationship
management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP) and product lifecycle management
(PLM). See the top forecasts for applications software.

➢ Methodology
Oracle uses AIM (Application Implementation Methodology) to manage all of its Oracle
Application implementation projects. AIM can be used for many different software
implementations and not just Oracle Applications. However, the methodology is purpose built
for Oracle Applications and the detailed deliverables produced are designed with the Oracle
Application products in mind.

The following Oracle Applications are covered by AIM :

▪ Oracle Financials.
▪ Oracle Distribution.
▪ Oracle Human Resources.
▪ Oracle Manufacturing.
▪ Oracle process Manufacturing.

AIM incorporates two things. First, it is a methodology showing what tasks are required, what
order they should be completed in, and what resources are required.

Secondly, it provides deliverable templates for all the tasks that require them. The combination
of a methodology with a deliverable templating tool makes AIM a powerful product.

One disadvantage of AIM is that is very complicated. It involves over 200 deliverables. If you tried
to use them all you would be spending 18 months implementing a 3 month project. AIM is supposed to be
used by experienced project managers that pick and choose the tasks they require for each project.

Oracle’s AIM is a proven approach for implementing packaged applications. It comprises a set of
well defined processes that can be managed in several ways to guide you through an application
implementation project. AIM provides the tools needed to effectively and efficiently plan, conduct, and
control project steps to successfully implement business solutions.
AIM defines business needs at the beginning of the project and maintains their visibility throughout the
implementation. It defines internal, external, and time sensitive business events and maps each event to
the responding business and system processes. Using this method, the client gains an accurate
understanding of the business requirements that need to be focused on during the course of the
implementation.

▪ AIM Structure

AIM is a framework of related elements. It involves phases, processes, tasks and dependencies:

The following Oracle Applications are covered by AIM:

• A task is a unit of work, which results in a single deliverable. That deliverable may take
many different forms like reports, schedules, code, or test results for example.

• A process is a closely related group of dependent tasks which meets a major objective. A
process is usually based on a common discipline.

• A phase is a chronological grouping of tasks. It enables a flexible way to organise tasks,


schedule major deliverables, and deliver projects.

➢ Process :
A process in AIM represents a related set of objectives, resource skill requirements, inputs, and
deliverable outputs. A task can belong to only one process. Project team members are usually
assigned to a process according to their specialisation and background. A brief description of the
AIM processes are given below:

1. Business Requirements Definition

Business Requirements Definition defines the business needs that must be met by the
implementation project. You document business processes by identifying business events and
describing the steps that respond to these events.
2. Business Requirements Mapping

Business Requirements Mapping compares the business requirements to standard application


software functionality and identifies gaps that must be addressed to fully meet business needs.
As gaps between requirements and functionality emerge, they are resolved by documenting
workarounds, alternative solutions, application extensions, or by changing the underlying
business process

3. Application and Technical Architecture

During the Application and Technical Architecture you design an information systems
architecture that reflects your business vision. Using the business and information systems
requirements, this process facilitates development of a plan for deploying and configuring the
hardware required for a successful implementation.

4. Module Design and Build

Module Design and Build produces custom software solutions to gaps in functionality identified
during Business Requirements Mapping. Custom software solutions include program modules
that must be designed, built, and tested before they can be incorporated into the system.

5. Data Conversion

Data Conversion defines the tasks and deliverables required to convert legacy data to the Oracle
Applications tables. The first step of this process explicitly defines the business objects that are
required for conversion and the legacy source systems that store these objects. The converted
data may be needed for system testing, training, and acceptance testing as well as for
production.

6. Documentation

Documentation begins with materials created early in the project. Using detailed documents
from the project, the writing staff develops user and technical material that are tailored to the
implementation.

7. Business System Testing

Business System Testing focuses on linking test requirements back to business requirements
and securing project resources needed for testing. It supports utilising common test information
including data profiles to promote testing co-ordination and to minimise duplication of test
preparation and execution effort.

8. Performance Testing

Performance Testing enables you to define, build, and execute a performance test. Use the
results to make decisions on whether the performance is acceptable for the business and to help
propose tactical or strategic changes to address the performance quality shortfall. Performance
Testing is closely related to Application and Technical Architecture; they are interdependent.

9. Training
Training prepares both users and administrators to assume on the tasks of running the new
application system. It includes development of materials and methods as well as administration.
Instructors and courseware developers orient their material toward roles and jobs, and not
toward application modules.

10. Production Migration

Production Migration moves the company, system, and people to the new enterprise system.
Following production cutover, it monitors and refines the production system and plans for the
future. The Production Migration process encompasses transition to production readiness,
production cutover, and post-production support.

➢ SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis is a vital strategic planning tool that can be used by Oracle managers to do a
situational analysis of the company . It is a handy technique to analyse the present
Strengths (S), Weakness (W), Opportunities (O) & Threats (T) Oracle is facing in its current
business environment. The Oracle is one of the leading companies in its industry. Oracle
maintains its dominant position in market by carefully analyzing and reviewing the SWOT
analysis. SWOT analysis a highly interactive process and requires effective coordination
among various departments within the firm such as – marketing, finance, operations,
management information systems and strategic planning.

The SWOT Analysis framework helps an organization to identify the internal strategic
factors such as -strengths and weaknesses, & external strategic factors such as -
opportunities and threats. It leads to a 2X2 matrix – also called SWOT Matrix.

The Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats (SWOT) Analysis / Matrix enables


the managers of the Oracle to develop four types of strategies:

• SO (strengths-opportunities) Strategies
• WO (weaknesses-opportunities) Strategies
• ST (strengths-threats) Strategies
• WT (weaknesses-threats) Strategies
The primary purpose of SWOT matrix is to identify the strategies that a firm can use to
exploit external opportunities, counter threats, and build on & protect Oracle strengths,
and eradicate its weaknesses.
Step by Step Guide to Oracle SWOT Analysis
▪ Strengths of Oracle – Internal Strategic Factors
As one of the leading organizations in its industry, Oracle has numerous strengths that
help it to thrive in the market place. These strengths not only help it to protect the market
share in existing markets but also help in penetrating new markets.
• Superb Performance in New Markets – Oracle has built expertise at entering new
markets and making success of them. The expansion has helped the organization to
build new revenue stream and diversify the economic cycle risk in the markets it
operates in.
• Successful track record of integrating complimentary firms through mergers &
acquisition. It has successfully integrated number of technology companies in the
past few years to streamline its operations and to build a reliable supply chain.
• Strong distribution network – Over the years Oracle has built a reliable distribution
network that can reach majority of its potential market.
• Good Returns on Capital Expenditure – Oracle is relatively successful at execution of
new projects and generated good returns on capital expenditure by building new
revenue streams.
• High level of customer satisfaction – the company with its dedicated customer
relationship management department has able to achieve a high level of customer
satisfaction among present customers and good brand equity among the potential
customers.
• Successful track record of developing new products – product innovation.
• Strong Brand Portfolio – Over the years Oracle has invested in building a strong
brand portfolio. The SWOT analysis of Oracle just underlines this fact. This brand
portfolio can be extremely useful if the organization wants to expand into new
product categories.
• Strong dealer community – It has built a culture among distributor & dealers where
the dealers not only promote company’s products but also invest in training the
sales team to explain to the customer how he/she can extract the maximum
benefits out of the products.
▪ Weakness of Oracle – Internal Strategic Factors

Weakness are the areas where Oracle can improve upon. Strategy is about making choices
and weakness are the areas where a company can improve using SWOT analysis and build
on its competitive advantage and strategic positioning.

• The marketing of the products left a lot to be desired. Even though the product is a
success in terms of sale but its positioning and unique selling proposition is not
clearly defined which can lead to the attacks in this segment from the competitors.
• Days inventory is high compare to the competitors – making the company raise
more capital to invest in the channel. This can impact the long term growth of
Oracle
• Investment in Research and Development is below the fastest growing players in the
industry. Even though Oracle is spending above the industry average on Research
and Development, it has not been able to compete with the leading players in the
industry in terms of innovation. It has come across as a mature firm looking forward
to bring out products based on tested features in the market.
• Not very good at product demand forecasting leading to higher rate of missed
opportunities compare to its competitors. One of the reason why the days inventory
is high compare to its competitors is that Oracle is not very good at demand
forecasting thus end up keeping higher inventory both in-house and in channel.
• Limited success outside core business – Even though Oracle is one of the leading
organizations in its industry it has faced challenges in moving to other product
segments with its present culture.
• There are gaps in the product range sold by the company. This lack of choice can
give a new competitor a foothold in the market.
• The company has not being able to tackle the challenges present by the new
entrants in the segment and has lost small market share in the niche categories.
Oracle has to build internal feedback mechanism directly from sales team on
ground to counter these challenges.

• Opportunities for Oracle – External Strategic Factors

• New customers from online channel – Over the past few years the company has
invested vast sum of money into the online platform. This investment has opened
new sales channel for Oracle. In the next few years the company can leverage this
opportunity by knowing its customer better and serving their needs using big data
analytics.
• Decreasing cost of transportation because of lower shipping prices can also bring
down the cost of Oracle’s products thus providing an opportunity to the company -
either to boost its profitability or pass on the benefits to the customers to gain
market share.
• New trends in the consumer behaviour can open up new market for the Oracle . It
provides a great opportunity for the organization to build new revenue streams and
diversify into new product categories too.
• The new technology provides an opportunity to Oracle to practices differentiated
pricing strategy in the new market. It will enable the firm to maintain its loyal
customers with great service and lure new customers through other value oriented
propositions.
• Opening up of new markets because of government agreement – the adoption of
new technology standard and government free trade agreement has provided
Oracle an opportunity to enter a new emerging market.
• New environmental policies – The new opportunities will create a level playing field
for all the players in the industry. It represent a great opportunity for Oracle to drive
home its advantage in new technology and gain market share in the new product
category.
• The new taxation policy can significantly impact the way of doing business and can
open new opportunity for established players such as Oracle to increase its
profitability.
• The market development will lead to dilution of competitor’s advantage and enable
Oracle to increase its competitiveness compare to the other competitors.
• Threats Oracle Facing - External Strategic Factors

• Changing consumer buying behaviour from online channel could be a threat to the
existing physical infrastructure driven supply chain model.
• Rising pay level especially movements such as $15 an hour and increasing prices in
the China can lead to serious pressure on profitability of Oracle
• Increasing trend toward isolationism in the American economy can lead to similar
reaction from other government thus negatively impacting the international sales.
• Intense competition – Stable profitability has increased the number of players in the
industry over last two years which has put downward pressure on not only
profitability but also on overall sales.
• Rising raw material can pose a threat to the Oracle profitability.
• No regular supply of innovative products – Over the years the company has
developed numerous products but those are often response to the development by
other players. Secondly the supply of new products is not regular thus leading to
high and low swings in the sales number over period of time.
• New environment regulations under Paris agreement (2016) could be a threat to
certain existing product categories .
• The demand of the highly profitable products is seasonal in nature and any unlikely
event during the peak season may impact the profitability of the company in short
to medium term.
• Limitations of SWOT Analysis for Oracle

Although the SWOT analysis is widely used as a strategic planning tool, the analysis does
have its share of limitations.

• Certain capabilities or factors of an organization can be both a strength and


weakness at the same time. This is one of the major limitations of SWOT analysis .
For example changing environmental regulations can be both a threat to company it
can also be an opportunity in a sense that it will enable the company to be on a level
playing field or at advantage to competitors if it able to develop the products faster
than the competitors.
• SWOT does not show how to achieve a competitive advantage, so it must not be an
end in itself.
• The matrix is only a starting point for a discussion on how proposed strategies could
be implemented. It provided an evaluation window but not an implementation plan
based on strategic competitiveness of Oracle
• SWOT is a static assessment - analysis of status quo with few prospective changes.
As circumstances, capabilities, threats, and strategies change, the dynamics of a
competitive environment may not be revealed in a single matrix.
• SWOT analysis may lead the firm to overemphasize a single internal or external
factor in formulating strategies. There are interrelationships among the key internal
and external factors that SWOT does not reveal that may be important in devising
strategies.
➢ WHAT IS SCM IN ORACLE?
Oracle SCM (Supply Chain Management Cloud) is a cloud-based application built by Oracle. It unifies
end-to-end business processes considering the changing supply chain needs of the modern enterprises.

It incorporates the digital supply chain with capabilities that include product innovation, strategic
material sourcing, outsourced manufacturing, integrated logistics, Omni channel fulfillment, and
integrated demand and supply planning, which makes Oracle SCM Cloud the most comprehensive SCM
suite in the cloud. Oracle SCM Cloud allows to deploy functionality incrementally, with minimal risk,
lower cost, and maximum flexibility—all with the benefit of ongoing functional innovation and operating

• Logistics cloud,
• Order Management Cloud
• Procurement Cloud
• Product Management Cloud (PLM / PIM)
• Service Logistics Cloud
• Supply Chain Collaboration and Visibility Cloud
• Supply Chain Execution Cloud (Inventory, Maintenance, Manufacturing)
• Supply Chain Planning cloud

➢Conclusion :-
According to my information of the project I founded that we can conclude that oracle is a powerful
database server management software that can serve the requirements of Enterprise level and small
level applications as well. It includes almost all the features required to support modern applications
and therefore, is widely used.

To sum up all the advantages of using the relational database over any other type of database, a
relational database helps in maintaining the data redundancy to minimum or zero, data scalability, data
flexibility and facilities makes it easy to implement security methods.

With oracle autonomous database. Customers uniquely get the world’s leading database. Oracle
Database on the best platform. This combination provides the most secure, available, performant,
proven solution at the lowest cost as all operational tasks are fully automatic with embedded machine
learning and customers only pay for resource’s they use with universal credits or bring own
licence.TheAutonomous is also the safest cloud deployment because data is automatically encrypted
and security updates are automatically applied as soon as they are available.
Fishbowl Inventory

succession.

▪ Fishbowl’s corporate Brochure


In Fishbowl's Corporate Brochure, you'll find a broad overview of Fishbowl, including all of its services
and features. The Corporate Brochure includes testimonials from several satisfied Fishbowl users, and
information on the different training options to help you get acquainted with Fishbowl. You can also
learn about Fishbowl's ROI Tool, 100% Satisfaction Guarantee and Merchant Services. The brochure is
the perfect place to get started with Fishbowl!
There are many other intuitive features Fishbowl offers to make your job easier. Let’s go over 10
of them.

1. Notification of Vendors’ Required Quantities and Discounts

Putting together a purchase order isn’t always as simple as you might think. There are all kinds
of factors to consider, such as the case when vendors won’t ship items until they reach a certain
quantity, and other times when they offer discounts for bulk orders that meet a high threshold

It’s hard to remember all of these specifics, which is why Fishbowl has Vendor module
options to automatically notify you when you’re just short of the vendor’s minimum for shipping,
and when you could qualify for a discount by ordering just a few more. This helpful feature
ensures your purchase orders are successfully received and fulfilled, and that you get the best
deal possible on them.

2. Category Capacity Planning Report

Fishbowl’s Category Capacity Planning Report allows you to manage your manufacturing
schedule and daily capacity. It shows the daily limit, in terms of hours, you are able to dedicate
to a variety of manufacturing tasks. You can add work orders to specific days and even split one
across multiple days. The report will warn you if you have scheduled too many things on a
particular day. It will also give you the option to reschedule.

3. Sales Production Demand Report

The Sales Production Demand Report shows the suggested start dates and inventory demand
generated by open sales orders. You can quickly see how many finished goods you have on
hand to fulfil each sales order and if there are any short quantities. That way, you’ll see exactly
how many finished goods you need to manufacture or order before you have enough to fulfil the
orders.

4. One-Step Order Fulfillment

Receiving is typically a two-step process. First, receive physical goods. Second, reconcile to
confirm costs and shipping match the vendor bill. A Receiving module option allows you to fulfill
the order in just one step through the Receiving Data CSV import. By clicking the box in the
Fulfil column, you can receive an item without having to go through the reconciliation process.

5. Calendar Categories

It’s easy to create categories in the Calendar module to ensure your work orders, purchase
orders, sales orders, and more get processed and completed in a timely manner. When you
create categories, everything in your calendar becomes color-coordinated by category so that
any worker looking at it can instantly see what types of tasks are scheduled at specific times.

6. Manufacture Order module option

There is a Manufacture Order module option that lets you automatically match a newly created
manufacture order’s number to the number of the sales order that created it. This might seem
like a small thing, but it has far-reaching consequences. Manufacture orders are frequently
generated by sales orders to make more of an item that is short. By giving them the same
number, you make it super simple to track down their corresponding orders and see what their
status is.

7.Notification to Update Orders to Reflect a Revised Bill of Materials

When you make a change to a bill of materials, do you ever worry that any open work orders or
sales orders that rely on that bill of materials could be at risk of not being performed correctly?
You don’t have to worry about that at all when you use Fishbowl Manufacturing. It automatically
generates a notification soon after anyone modifies a bill of materials, prompting users to make
those same changes to all open orders that are affected.

8. Hot Keys

If you want to navigate the Fishbowl software even faster than you thought possible, all you
have to do is make use of Fishbowl Hot Keys. These are combinations of keystrokes that
perform the same function as mouse-clicks on buttons in the interface. We all use hot keys to
quickly copy, paste, and highlight text, and do other tasks in Word, for example. Once you
master them in Fishbowl’s various modules, you’ll be able to fly through inventory management
tasks!

9. Custom Fields

Fishbowl gives you the ability to customize basically all of its modules by adding custom fields to
them. Rather than having to squeeze your company into a one-size-fits-all box, you can modify
Fishbowl to fit your company’s unique way of managing inventory. You have the option to
rename fields, create entire new ones, and do many other things. The types of custom fields
you can create include: text (up to 30 characters), long text (up to 512 characters), date, money,
checkbox, dropdown list, URL, quantity (allows decimal points), and count (no decimal points).

10. API

Fishbowl is famous for its seamless integration with QuickBooks. Because of that, we see the
value in opening our software to other developers in order to create new integrations.
The Fishbowl API allows both customers and third-party developers to build integrations to their
business solutions. At the API link above, you will find links to sample code and the Fishbowl
Developer Hook, which will let you connect with Fishbowl and begin the process of integrating.

Fishbowl Ranks High on Capture’s Inventory Management ShortlistCapterra, a free online service
that helps organizations find the right software, named Fishbowl one of the top inventory
management software products on its 2021 Capterra Shortlist. This inventory management
shortlist is a ranking of market leaders, based on an independent evaluation of their products’
online search activity and verified user reviews.

Four Shortlist Categories

Software products receive a score directly tied to their online popularity and user ratings.
Capterra then uses those scores to place each product on a graph with popularity as the Y axis
and ratings as the X axis. There are four quadrants of the graph that software can be placed in,
and their category names are:

• Top Performers (High Popularity and Ratings Score)


• Established Players (High Popularity and Lower Ratings Score)
• Emerging Favourites (Lower Popularity and High Ratings Score)
• Noteworthy Products (Low Popularity and Ratings Score)

Fishbowl is just slightly to the left of the Top Performers quadrant, landing in the Established
Players one. Here is how Capterra describes this category: “Established Players are popular
products that are well known in the space. These could include products that have been around
for a while or are widely used.”

Indeed, Fishbowl has been around for 20 years, and it was one of the first inventory
management solutions to integrate with QuickBooks. It has maintained its elite status as the #1
selling inventory management software for QuickBooks since 2004, so it’s fair to say Fishbowl is
widely used by a large number of companies.
Most of the products on the graph are in either the Emerging Favourites or Noteworthy Products
quadrant, meaning they are below Fishbowl in popularity. Capterra defines popularity as a
product’s Web search trends and overall Web presence. They weight user ratings by their
regency and total number.

Fishbowl has 636 reviews on the site, far more than the vast majority of the other software
listed. One of the highest-rated ones has just 21 reviews. It makes sense that you will find a
huge variety of opinions on the software from that many voices chiming in, compared to just a
handful for others.

▪ Why You Need Inventory Management Software?

Excel spreadsheets and pen and paper are not enough to meet your complex inventory management
needs. With a manual inventory system, you spend far too much time hunting for the information you're
looking for, correcting data errors, and having goods slip through the cracks. What you need is inventory
management software to help you save time and money by organizing your inventory information and
keeping it constantly up to date.

Fishbowl is the inventory management software for QuickBooks, and it offers the following features to
benefit manufacturers and warehouse owners:

Track inventory with lot/serial numbers, expiration dates, and more to efficiently manage multiple
warehouses

Organize complex manufacturing jobs with multilevel work orders, manufacture orders, bills of
materials, and production stages.

Use barcode scanners to accurately perform batch picks, cycle counts, and other essential warehouse
tasks.

Seamlessly integrate with QuickBooks to keep your accounting and inventory records in sync.

Set up automatic reorder points on all of your items to avoid shortages and overstocks.

Create custom fields to tailor the Fishbowl software to your specific business requirements.

Fishbowl offers many other advanced inventory management features. Sign up for an online demo

and the shopping cart.

• Big Commerce
• eBay
• Shopify
• Magneto
• 3dCart
• Collusion

▪ Production Stages

You can create multilevel work orders that utilize production stages or sub-assemblies in FBM.
This lets you check what stage each manufacturing job has reached to see if everything is on
schedule and to make adjustments when something falls behind. FBM helps you build only what
you need and avoid unnecessary waste, but if you do have some waste, it helps you track that,
too.

▪ Multilevel Bill of Materials

Fishbowl's robust Bill of Materials module can work for almost any industry and product, from
manufacturing food and drugs with complex units of measure and FDA requirements to creating
advanced electronics that require multiple serial numbers. Build BOM's with multiple stages,
sub-assemblies, complex units of measure, and multiple finished goods. Fishbowl's BOM's can
be as advanced or as simple as you need.

Fishbowl has the ability to:


• Add production stages to a BOM that must be completed in a certain order.
• Create and fulfil multiple BOM’s at the same time.
• Replicate a BOM as many times as you like.
• Easily update quantities and parts in a BOM when necessary.
• Create detailed instructions and even attach pictures for each step of the BOM.
• Attach documents to each BOM via the Fishbowl Drive plugin
▪ Multiple Locations

Fishbowl tracks inventory across multiple warehouses, and it can also drill down to minute bin
locations on a per-shelf level. Get as granular or as broad as you need to. You can even set pick
route settings so that no time is wasted walking back and forth between locations. Control who
has access rights to specific location groups, and designate a purpose for each sub-location.

Fishbowl helps you manage multiple locations by allowing you to:


• Check inventory levels across multiple locations.
• Analyse inventory valuation and sales trends at each of your warehouses.
• Auto replenish inventory levels by transferring products from one location to another.
• Automatically generate purchase orders with the aid of reorder points.

▪ Advanced Work Orders

FBM is an ideal inventory solution for many types of manufacturers. It allows you to create
build-to-order work orders for a variety of tasks. You can also group multiple work orders into
overarching manufacture orders, add step-by-step instructions, categorize, prioritize, and
schedule work orders, and attach pictures, documents, and notes to them.

With Fishbowl, you can:


• Create build-to-order work orders for products that must be picked to fulfil specific
sales orders.
• Create work orders one at a time or in batches.
• Use them for assembly, sub-assembly, disassembly, repair, and other jobs.
• Create work orders for every kind of job, from simple to multitier.
▪ Labour & Job Tracking

Fishbowl Time is a cloud-based timekeeping solution for tracking employees' hours, overtime,
vacation time, payroll, tax status, labour on work orders, available hours for production, and
more. A combination of Fishbowl Time and Fishbowl Manufacturing gives you accurate records
of labour costs for work orders and other projects.

Fishbowl Time lets you:

• Incorporate labour costs into total costs on work orders.


• Budget labour costs and then compare them to the actual numbers.
• Clock in and out from any Internet-connected device.
• Use GPS tracking to check where employees clock in and out from.
• Calculate taxes and meet other IRS requirements.

▪ Serial Numbers & Lot Numbers

You can use FBM to track each part’s quantity and status by using serial numbers and lot
numbers. In addition, expiration dates, revision levels, and batch numbers are available to show
you how many raw materials and finished goods you have on hand. These also help with returns,
warranties, and recalls.

▪ Shipping

Shipping is a basic function of any business, whether it's receiving inventory, transferring items
between warehouses, or sending finished goods to customers. Fishbowl integrates with a variety
of shipping solutions to automatically generate shipping labels and sync shipping costs, tracking
numbers, customer address, weights, and multiple cartons. This ensures your packages get to
the right places at the right times.

carriers and makes sure you are getting the best deal.

automatically generate purchase orders and manufacture orders, and set up pricing tiers for

1.PURCHASE ORDER

A Purchase Order is a document that a buyer sends to a seller to specify the products and/or services
that they would like to receive from the seller. It also includes the total cost the buyer will pay for their
order. Fishbowl has a Purchase Order Module that allows you to instantly generate Purchase Orders for
a variety of uses, including:

▪ Vendor purchases
▪ Credit returns

2.MANUFACTURE ORDER

A Manufacture Order is a way of organizing multiple Work Orders, Sales Orders, Bills of Materials, and
Finished Goods. This is extremely useful when dealing with multi-step manufacturing processes and
large orders. Fishbowl Manufacturing's Manufacture Order Module allows you to create
Manufacture Orders to:
• Build
• Disassemble
• Repair
• Maintain
With this module, you can organize manufacturing jobs into stages so one task won't begin
until an earlier one is complete.

3.SALES ORDER

A Sales Order is an internal document that a company creates after receiving a customer’s Purchase
Order. Sales Orders help companies standardize their paperwork so they don’t have to rely on external
documents, like Purchase Orders, for their record keeping.

Fishbowl's Sales Order Module allows you to create Sales Orders for:

▪ Credit returns
▪ Drop shipping products
▪ Duplicating orders
▪ Printing invoices

4.BILL TO QUICKBOOKS

QuickBooks is the most popular accounting software for small businesses in the United States. Its user-
friendly features enable people with even just a passing knowledge of accounting to manage their
finances effectively.Fishbowl’s Accounting Module allows you to export data from its inventory
management software to QuickBooks. You can either export data manually or schedule automatic data
exports as often as you like. The information you can export to QuickBooks includes:

▪ Customers
▪ Vendors
▪ Bills
▪ Invoices
▪ Sales receipts
▪ Payments

5.RECEIVE/RECONCILE

Receiving means accepting new products into your inventory. The Receiving process occurs when a
shipment you ordered arrives at your warehouse or any other of your locations. You scan new products
into your inventory so they instantly show up in our electronic database.

Fishbowl's Receiving Module allows you to:

▪ Receive full and partial orders


▪ Void orders
▪ Reject inventory
▪ Reconcile inventory
Reconciling in Fishbowl means that when you receive a shipment, but the costs, quantities or product
types are different than you specified in the original order, you update your records to reflect those
changes. You can reconcile items in Purchase Orders and Transfer Orders, but not in Sales Orders.

6.INVENTORY

Inventory is made up of the products you have in stock to sell to customers and the parts you use to
manufacture products. Fishbowl tracks inventory items, quantities, locations and other things to help
you stay organized.

Fishbowl’s Inventory Module lets you:

▪ Search for parts and products


▪ Transfer inventory
▪ Adjust tracking information
▪ Perform cycle counts
▪ Add inventory
▪ Eliminate inventory

7.PICK

Picking is the process of gathering the right parts and/or products to fulfill an order. Fishbowl’s Picking
Module makes it easy to find items in your warehouse and ensure you have the required amount on
hand.

Fishbowl also allows you to:

▪ Pick items for a Sales Order, Transfer Order, Work Order or Consignment
▪ Pick partial quantities if you don't have enough to fill an order right now
▪ Choose the warehouse to pick from if you have multiple locations
▪ Add serial numbers or other tracking information to ensure products are delivered

8.TRANSFER ORDER

A Transfer Order is a form used to ship items in a company’s warehouse to another location or to simply
move them to a new area within the same warehouse. Fishbowl’s Transfer Order Module allows you to
assign default locations for specific parts and products to be sent to. You can also set automatic reorder
points, so a product will be replenished from another location when it gets too low.

Transfer Orders perform three main tasks:

▪ Ship – This is the most complicated of the three tasks. It involves picking, packing, and shipping
items to a specific destination, and then receiving those items when they arrive.
▪ Move – This involves much less documentation than the Ship option. You simply pick products
from a shelf and transfer them to a desired location. No questions asked
▪ Put away – In this case, an item is transferred to its default location in a warehouse. This makes
it easy to find later, thanks to Fishbowl’s inventory tracking tools

9.BILL OF MATERIALS
A Bill of Materials is a list of parts and raw materials that are required to build a product. There are
many different types of Bills of Materials. Some are food recipes while others are blueprints for building
simple and complex products.

There are four main jobs that you can use a Bill of Materials for:

▪ Manufacturing
▪ Repair
▪ Disassembly
▪ Maintenance

Fishbowl allows you to create Bills of Materials for all of the above purposes. It also generates Bill of
Materials templates, which you can customize with optional parts. Depending on your preference, you
can use one Bill of Materials to build several products, or one Bill of Materials per product.

10.CONSIGNMENT

Consignment occurs when one person sends a product to someone else, but the sender remains the
legal owner of the product until it’s sold. Consignment can involve selling products at auction or through
a second-hand store.

▪ Create Consignment locations


▪ Manage inventory at each Consignment location you set up
▪ Fulfil Sales Orders on inventory that has been consigned
▪ Create Transfer Orders
▪ Create Purchase Orders

11.RMA

RMA stands for Return Merchandise Authorization. As its name implies, it is used to keep track of
customers’ product returns. Products can be returned for a variety of reasons, such as if they arrive
damaged, if they break soon after they arrive, or if they are the wrong size/colour/type/etc.

With Fishbowl’s RMA Module, you can offer four return options to customers

▪ Replacement
▪ Repair
▪ Substitution
▪ Refund
▪ You can also track products, vendors, and other data in Fishbowl's RMA Module

12.PACK/SHIP

Packing is the process of selecting the number and size of cartons to put your Picked items into, and
then putting the items into those cartons. Shipping is the process of transferring products from one
place to another, often from a warehouse to a customer’s location.

Fishbowl's Shipping Module allows you to:

▪ Quickly find items in your warehouse(s)


▪ Transfer products between warehouses
▪ Calculate shipping costs
▪ Integrate with FedEx and UPS
▪ Automatically generate and print UPS shipping labels
▪ Automatically create packing lists

13.INVOICE TO QUICKBOOKS

QuickBooks is an accounting software solution for small and midsize businesses. Fishbowl integrates
seamlessly with QuickBooks. When updates are made to Fishbowl’s inventory management records, it
transmits that data to QuickBooks so it will update the accounting records.

As part of the Packing and Shipping processes, Fishbowl’s Accounting Module sends QuickBooks the
data on each sale it records and asks QuickBooks to print or email an invoice for the customer.
QuickBooks uses the data on the cost of goods sold to update the company’s Assets, and it uses the total
balance due to update the company’s Accounts Receivable

• What is inventory control ?

Inventory control is the process of keeping the right number of parts and products in stock to avoid
shortages, overstocks, and other costly problems.

Inventory control focuses on cutting the number of slow-selling products a company purchases while
also increasing the number of high-selling products. This saves businesses time and money because they
don’t have to spend lots of man-hours reordering and receiving goods that they don’t really need. Plus,
they avoid devoting precious warehouse space to hold those products, which cuts down on carrying
costs and affords more room for faster-selling products.

By using inventory control, you are able to protect against making rash decisions and you also avoid the
pain and expense that come from overstocking on inventory. As its name suggests, inventory control
helps you maintain control over your inventory levels so that you make the best use of your resources
and avoid product spoilage and obsolescence.

▪ Manufacturing

➢ SWOT Analysis
• What is SWOT analysis?

A SWOT Analysis is a powerful tool to develop business strategies for start-up firms as well as
for existing companies. This simple framework is used to evaluate the positioning of a firm in a
competitive market. SWOT analysis of The Fishbowl Effect can lead the company towards
making effective and wise business strategies.

The SWOT stands for-

• Strengths
• Weaknesses
• Opportunities
• Threats.

The internal environmental analysis can help an organisation to identify its core strengths and
weaknesses. Whereas, external environmental analysis can help the organisation to identify
opportunities and threats that must be considered to ensure long-term business survival. The
Fishbowl Effect can adapt and control its strengths and weaknesses (internal factors), but it
cannot control the external factors (opportunities and threats):

• Some examples of internal factors (strengths/weaknesses) are- leadership competencies,


intellectual property rights, locational advantages and geographic presence.
• Some examples of external factors (opportunities/threats) are- customers’ changing
tastes and interests, competitive trends, inflation and population growth.

The Fishbowl Effect can use the SWOT matrix to exploit the opportunities and minimise the
threats by leveraging its strengths and overcoming its weaknesses. Usually, it is presented in the
two-by-two grid form. The framework is based on developing four types of strategies, including-

• Leveraging strengths to exploit external opportunities.


• Overcoming weaknesses to exploit external opportunities.
• Leveraging strengths to minimise the threats.
• Overcoming weaknesses to minimise the threats.

• Conduct SWOT analysis?

SWOT analysis is a subjective approach, and there is no standardised way to conduct the analysis.
Usually, the SWOT analysis involves three steps as given below:

• Step one involves gathering the right people to take the input from them. The right people
may involve from employees, managers, customers and other important stakeholders that
have detailed know how of organisation's internal and/or external environment.
• Step two includes arranging the brainstorming session with the identified people and
asking them to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. It is better
to make small teams and ask all team members to make the lists individually.
• After getting the bulk of information and a long list of identified internal and external
factors, it is important to fill the gaps, avoid repetition and provide an additional
explanation where required.

• SWOT Analysis of The Fishbowl Effect

SWOT analysis of The Fishbowl Effect can be based to make important strategic decisions and
accomplish the business objectives. The four components of The Fishbowl Effect SWOT analysis
are given below.

▪ Strengths of The Fishbowl Effect

Strengths of The Fishbowl Effect is the first element of the SWOT matrix.

• The geographic presence in different regions can act as one of the major strength of the
organisation. It determines the business’s reach to the target market and ensures the easy
accessibility.
• The wide product portfolio can allow the organisation to expand the customer base and
offset the losses from one product category with benefits obtained from the other.
• Strong online presence on different social networking sites and efficient social media
management can enhance the effect of positive e-WOM and develop strong relationships
with customers.
• Strong financial position and health can allow the firm to make further investments.
• Access to the suppliers that offer raw material at a lower cost can improve the overall
business efficiency.
• The locational advantage can improve the competitive positioning of the firm in various
ways, such as- lower cost, improved accessibility or enhanced brand image.
• The well-developed and efficiently integrated IT infrastructure can improve the operational
efficiency and increase knowledge of the latest market trends.
• Competent and committed human capital can act as a powerful source of competitive
advantage, particularly when business is service oriented in nature.
• High product quality increases brand loyalty and improves The Fishbowl Effect's
performance in a competitive market.
• Workplace diversity can also act as a major business strength, particularly when the
organisation intends to operate in the international market.
• The horizontal and/or vertical integration can increase the control over whole value chain,
result in improved access to raw material and quick product delivery to the final customer.
• An organisation may own different intellectual property rights that can make the product
offerings unique and exclusive, making it difficult for competitors to imitate.

▪ Weaknesses of The Fishbowl Effect

Weaknesses of The Fishbowl Effect is the second element of the SWOT matrix.

• The organisation can draw the criticism from the environmentalists for its poor waste
management practices and inability to integrate sustainability in business operations.
• The company may lose efficiency due to poor inventory management practices. The
shortage or excessive inventory can either result into
• The cash shortage or insufficient current assets negatively affect the liquidity position and
harms the overall business performance.
• Insufficient budget for the marketing and promotion activities weakens the firms’ ability
to expand the customer base and encourage repeat purchase.
• Less expenditure on the research and development activities can weaken the company
performance due to poor local/international market knowledge

▪ Opportunities of The Fishbowl Effect

Opportunities of The Fishbowl Effect comes into the third column of SWOT matrix. The Fishbowl
Effect. The organisation currently has the following opportunities available in the market:

• The exponential growth in the population, and particularly in the existing or potential
customer segments is a great growth opportunity for the business organisation.
• The changing customer needs, tastes and preferences can act as an opportunity if the
business organisation has good market knowledge.
• The development of new technologies to assist the product/service production and
delivery process can be exploited to embed the innovation in business operations. The
advanced technological integration can decrease costs, improve efficiency and result in
the quick introduction of innovative products.
• Rise in the customers’ disposable income and increase in the affluent customer base can
be taken as an opportunity to introduce more high-end products.
• Reduction in the interest rates makes the fund raising and financing at lower cost easier
for the business organisation.
• Customers may start preferring new and creative products/services as a result of
changing tastes.
• The emergence of e-commerce and social media marketing as a trend can be a great
opportunity for The Fishbowl Effect if it can ensure strong online presence on different
social networking sites.
• The emergence of new market segments and new niches provide business and product
line expansion opportunities.
• The diminishing boundaries and rising global interconnectedness allow the organisation
to get into the international market; target geographically dispersed customer base and
increased profitability.
• The subsidies provided by the government and other policies to make the business
environment more friendly is a positive external environmental factor for The Fishbowl
Effect.
• Improvement in the customers- lifestyle and standards mean more consumption on
consumer goods and services, and more opportunities to encourage the purchase.

The Fishbowl Effect can improve its performance by exploiting the above-mentioned
opportunities. However, it must also recognise the threats presented in the next section.

▪ Threats of The Fishbowl Effect

Threats of The Fishbowl Effect comes into the fourth column of the SWOT matrix. The Fishbowl Effect.
Besides different opportunities offered by external business environment, the organisation also faces
some threats as presented below:
• The changing regulatory framework and introduction of new stricter regulations impose a
major threat to the The Fishbowl Effect. It makes compliance with legal standards more
complex and challenging for the business organisation. Inability to comply with changed
regulations raises the risk of expensive law suits.
• Shortage of skilled labour in the market can make it difficult for the organisation to attract
talent with the right skills set.
• The increasing number of direct and/or indirect competitors affects the organisation's
ability to sustain and expand the customer base.
• The deteriorating economic conditions affect business performance when they directly
influence the customers' spending patterns and purchasing power.
• The rise in inflation increases the cost of production and affects the business profitability.
• The growing environmental sustainability trends act as a major threat when offered
products/services are not environment friendly. It draws the negative publicity and
criticism from the environmentalists and affects the brand image in a competitive market.
• The globalisation pushes the organisation to cross national boundaries and deal with
cultural diversity, which may have a detrimental impact if the organisation lacks the
cultural intelligence.

The Fishbowl Effect SWOT Analysis requires The Fishbowl Effect to differentiate between threats
having short-term or long-term implications. Threats with immediate implications need to be
addressed on a priority basis to avoid any possible harm. While threats with long-term
implications can be tackled after addressing the immediate threatening factors.

• Advantages and Limitations of SWOT analysis for The Fishbowl Effect

The detailed SWOT analysis can help the Fishbowl Effect to exploit the opportunities by
leveraging internal strengths quicker than competitors. SWOT analysis offers various Advantages
to the Fishbowl Effect as explained below:

• It can provide useful information for developing wise business strategies.


• It enables the Fishbowl Effect to maximise its strengths, overcome the weaknesses,
reduce threats and exploit opportunities.
• The Fishbowl Effect can identify the core competencies, do market projections and do
future planning.

However, SWOT analysis of The Fishbowl Effect has certain limitations that the company must
consider to achieve its strategic objectives.

• Sometimes, it is difficult to recognise the difference between opportunities and threats as


the same opportunity can act as a major threat if the firm is unable to exploit it in a timely
manner.
• It oversimplifies the process of identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and
threats. The identified factors are not ranked according to their importance and urgency,
due to which SWOT provides only limited information.
• The complex interdependency between the internal (strengths/weaknesses) and external
(opportunities/threats) environmental factors make the analysis more difficult.
• SWOT analysis does not consider the dynamic nature of a quickly changing environment.
• The SWOT analysis does not offer solutions or provide alternative strategies.
• The identification of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats generates a bulk of
information which may only be useful to a limited extent.

warehouse management solution designed for small and midsize companies. Key features include

NetSuite company
➢ Introduction :
NetSuite Inc. was an American cloud computing company founded in 1998 with headquarters
in San Mateo, California that provided software and services to manage business finances,
operations, and customer relations Its software and services were tailored for small and
medium-sized enterprises with solutions for ERP, CRM, PSA, inventory/warehouse management
and e-commerce Oracle Corporation acquired NetSuite for approximately US$9.3 billion in
November 2016. The newly formed Oracle NetSuite Business Unit is managed by Executive Vice
President Evan Goldberg as "Oracle’s Cloud ERP for Small and Mid-sized Enterprises. On
November 7, 2016, Oracle completed the acquisition of NetSuite, the very first cloud company.
In 1998, NetSuite pioneered the Cloud Computing revolution, establishing the world’s first
company dedicated to delivering business applications over the Internet. Today, NetSuite
provides a suite of cloud-based financials / Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Omni
channel commerce software that runs the business of more than 24,000 customers in more than
200 countries and territories.

▪ History
NetSuite was founded in 1998 by Evan Goldberg under the original name NetLedger, which offered
web-hosted accounting software. The company was seeded with both start-up money from Oracle
CEO Larry Ellison as well as a host of key staff previously employed at Oracle. The company’s
Chairman and CTO and other management transitioned from Oracle to NetSuite. At one time the
NetSuite solution was licensed by Oracle, branded The Oracle Small Business Suite, however, that
experience was short lived and the program was cancelled. NetSuite is widely seen as the first cloud
computing software company, with the company’s 1999 founding pre-dating that of Salesforce.com
by about a month. Goldberg was the chairman and chief technology officer up until the Oracle
acquisition.
In July 2002, Zach Nelson was appointed CEO. Prior to joining NetSuite, Nelson ran an early
provider of business applications over the Internet called MyCIO.com, a division of McAfee
Corp. This experience led him to the belief that all software would be delivered over the internet,
and he left McAfee to join NetSuite. He led the company from about $1 million in revenue to a
billion-dollar run-rate prior to its acquisition by Oracle Corp.
On January 4, 2007, NetSuite named Oakland A's General Manager Billy beane (of Money
ball fame) to its board of directors. Evan Goldberg cited Beane's ability to combine facts with
instinct as an important factor in the decision to involve him in the company. ]
NetSuite became a publicly traded company after its initial public offering (IPO) of 6.2 million
shares on the New York Stock Exchange in December 2007.
One quarter of employees are based in its Philippine office. NetSuite has additional offices
in Denver, Las Vegas, Austin, Chicago, Atlanta, New York City, Boston, Toronto, the United
Kingdom, Spain, the Czech Republic, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, and Uruguay.
• Relationship with oracle company
In 1998 Evan Goldberg received approximately $125 million in initial financial backing from Larry
Ellison, founder and chief executive officer of Oracle Corporation through Ellison's venture
capital entity Taco Ventures. Other initial investors were Star Vest Partners, ADP and UBS
PaineWebber. The NetSuite software also relies on database software licensed from Oracle.

Ellison and family members owned approximately 47.4% of NetSuite's common stock as of
December 31, 2014. The firm's 10-Q filing on March 2, 2015, stated that "Mr. Ellison is able to
exercise control over approval of significant corporate transactions, including a change of
control or liquidation.
On July 28, 2016, Oracle announced it had offered to purchase NetSuite for $9.3 billion. The deal
faced intense scrutiny because Oracle founder, Larry Ellison, owned nearly 40% of NetSuite. This
conflict of interest has led the board of both companies to establish independent committees to
review the deal from the perspective of independent shareholders. Some major NetSuite
shareholders, such as T. Rowe, notified Oracle they would not be tendering their shares under
the current terms of the proposed deal. In early October 2016, Oracle extended the deadline for
shareholders of NetSuite to tender their shares to November 4. The deal closed Nov. 7

➢ Methodology and Process

Enterprise resources planning (ERP) solutions are designed to support an organization in just about
every aspect of business operations by centralizing data and through automation. These platforms control
internal processes, facilitating the business planning of financials, vendors, materials, goods, services,
customers and employees.

The central feature of all ERP systems is a shared database that supports multiple functions used by different
business units. In practice, this means that employees in different departments, such as accounting and sales
and human resources, can rely on the same information for their business process needs.
▪ What is the ERP implementation process?

Every ERP implementation is slightly different with no standard template, but overall, the
implementation process has core similarities in each instance. At a high level, an ERP
implementation strategy includes similar phases to get from purchasing the solution to installing
licenses or software, transferring financial and transactional data, and mapping business
processes and system access for each department, user group or business role.

▪ ERP implementation methodology stages

The methodology of an ERP implementation can be simple or complex, based on factors like
size of the organization, the project’s complexity, and whether you’re implementing an on-
premises or cloud solution.

On-premises solutions have the added steps of including hardware infrastructure installations as
well as adding staff to maintain the infrastructure. Because all support activities, such as
configuration hosting and setup, are managed in-house, these added phases can change and
often prolong the implementation
Cloud ERP implementations can skip some of the traditional steps that an on-premises
deployment involves. The solution provider manages the infrastructure, allowing businesses to
focus on data migration, process changes and employee training. The added steps of hosting,
servers and maintenance are typically managed by the ERP vendor.
▪ ERP implementation budget

The success or failure of an implementation project can hinge on establishing a realistic budget,
and the main reason companies go over budget is because they expand the scope of the ERP
project. ERP implementation budgets can be broken down into three categories: technical costs,
workforce costs and data migration costs.

Technical costs incorporate all software, licenses, hardware and known technical
implementation costs. This will include factors like infrastructure hardware and software
upgrades, database configurations, maintenance and support, customizations and even hosting.

Workforce costs include internal and external people-related costs, which include education and
training costs, project management costs, consulting costs and other change management
costs such hiring as additional employees.

ERP data migration costs will include areas such as legacy system data extraction and
sunsetting costs, as well as transferring clean data to the new ERP solution.
▪ How much does an ERP implementation cost?

There isn’t a simple number for ERP implementation costs, but you can estimate based on
factors like business size, number of users or licenses required, training sessions,
customizations needed, app and data migrations, and whether the ERP is an on-premises vs. a
cloud solution. AS a rule of thumb, best practices suggest planning for at least one percent of
the organization’s operating budget. This figure increases and decreases with the size of the
organization.

The change management plan should have a detailed roadmap that defines the specific
goals of the new processes with some of these elements:

▪ Analysis – Analyse the new platform’s readiness to identify opportunities and risks.
▪ Role Assessment – Look at your current workforce and recognize personnel gaps.
▪ Communication plan – Develop a detailed communication plan that defines objectives,
milestones, deliverables and transition processes.
▪ Workforce enablement – Help employees thrive in the transformed organization by
implementing new roles and a training plan.
▪ Training execution – Perform onboarding training for the new systems.

business relies on its supply chain to be able to build products and bring them to market; a
business may itself be a crucial link in other companies’ supply chains.

Your company’s performance and brand reputation depend on your supply chain’s cost, speed,
quality and reliability. The timely flow of information across the supply chain is critical to align
product development, procurement, manufacturing and shipping.

Virtually every company that manages a modern supply chain will be doing so across multiple
continents and time zones, but how do you do that with a single application? NetSuite's
manufacturing, distribution and supply chain management capabilities are all built on the
premise that the physical location that a product is made or stored in should be irrelevant to
your decision making process—it may add to your lead time, but we let you manage all with
ease.
▪ What Is a Supply Chain?

A typical supply chain integrates functions such as designing a product, procuring needed raw
materials and parts, estimating demand, planning the product introduction, arranging supply,
selecting sales channels, delivering support and providing customers with visibility into orders.

A pharmaceutical industry supply chain, for instance, would link a drug maker with companies
involved in supplying raw materials, manufacturing, packaging, regional warehousing, wholesale
distribution, retail (in hospitals, clinics, pharmacies and online), recycling and returns. A retailer’s
supply chain might involve variations on this basic structure, while also routing some products to
a giant ecommerce marketplace.

▪ Why Is a Supply Chain Important?

Your supply chain affects many aspects of your business:

▪ Profitability: For many companies, the cost of planning and managing the supply chain
can reach 10% to 20% of overall revenue, according to management consulting firm
Oliver Wyman. Excessive costs here negatively affect profitability.

▪ Cash flow: Poorly run supply chains can tie up cash—with excess inventory or
expedited shipping charges, for example—that could be better used in other ways.

▪ Competitive advantage: Especially with today’s customer demand for next-day and
even same-day delivery, a high-performing supply chain can provide a competitive
advantage.

▪ Risk management: The supply chain is a major source of risk, since anything from bad
weather to an unanticipated spike in product demand can disrupt operations.
Reputational risk runs especially high; these kinds of disruptions can tarnish a
company’s track record for dependability.

▪ Revenue: A well-run supply chain can help businesses respond faster to demand,
resulting in higher revenue.

• Supply Chain Roles


At some companies, the supply chain has risen in importance to become a C-suite responsibility, headed
by a chief supply chain officer. Other supply chain roles include logistics manager, materials manager,
purchasing manager, procurement manager, planner and master scheduler. In smaller companies, a
single person may perform many of these roles.

Features

1. Planning

Planning your supply chain is a delicate process of trying to balance demand and supply, potentially
across the globe, in a way that provides your company with the right combination of cost control, lead
times and service level. NetSuite uses advanced inventory management and demand planning
techniques to help you make the right decisions and increase your on time delivery metrics. Each
location where you store inventory can be set up with unique parameters to deliver unprecedented
control over your supply chain.

2.Execution

Considering supply chain management as a whole, executing your plan is probably the most important
phase and in a global economy, it can also be the most complex. When your manufacturing can take
place on any continent and across multiple time zones, you need a simple but effective way to
communicate with your distributors, partners, suppliers and contract manufacturers to make sure they
know what you want and you know what they are intending on delivering

3.Collaboration

Being built in the cloud and accessible from anywhere on any device with a browser and internet access
is vital to modern businesses who manage supply chains of any size and complexity. NetSuite's
collaboration platform begins with automatic and instantaneous communication options via email,
continues through the ability to provide portal access to your supply chain partners to view / update
order or product information and can mature to integrated system communication through web service
or REST let APIs. Many customer build their own collaboration system on top of the NetSuite platform to
fit their specific requirements.

4.Support

Supporting your customers throughout their journey with your products, especially when things don't
necessarily go as expected, is a critical part of developing relationships. The ability to enter, route,
escalate and resolve issues is exactly what NetSuite's case management system was designed to do.
Cases can also launch sales orders to ship replacement units, coordinate with warranty claims and
initiate a repair process when necessary.
➢ Conculsion

NetSuite is the jack of all trades. With its combination of accounting , CRM, ERP and ecommerce
programs, its functionality out weighs QuickBooks hands down, however because NetSuite puts such an
effort into being able to do everything must be sacrificed. NetSuite is perfect for medium to large sized
companies looking for a program that integrates all business functions. There is no customization by
industry which makes some of the features useless depending on the company. Overall, NetSuite is an
expensive program, but if a company can utilize all of the features, it will be better with NetSuite.

➢ History
Ilonggo Veera founded Foysonis in 2015 to provide a cloud-native Logistics platform that will help
organizations modernize their supply chain operations for the 21st century. With deep knowledge in
technology and real-world supply-chain operational knowledge, his focus is to build a scalable
distributed supply chain platform that will operate globally and be reliable around the clock for 24/7,
365 days a year.

Prior to founding Foysonis, Ilonggo worked as an Independent WMS consultant for Fortune 500
Companies. He implemented WMS system for globally recognized companies like Valeant
Pharmaceuticals, Owens & Minor, Penske Logistics, Starbucks, Navistar, Wawa, Lowes, Makita, and
Mars.

Before working as a WMS consultant , lingo worked as a Senior Project Leader for Red Prairie (now JDA)
leading implementation teams and providing technical leadership for many Fortune 500 companies.

Prior to his career with Red Prairie, Ilonggo worked as a Principal Engineer in the Research and
Development division at Manhattan Associates to develop TMS and WMS applications. He had also
worked as a Senior Software Engineer for The Vanguard Group.

After graduating with a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Alabama at Birmingham in 1998,
Ilonggo began his career with Camber Software as a Software Engineer.

Like most new businesses, Foysonis began as a reaction to a problem. Our company's founders spent a
combined 40 years implementing and maintaining WMS systems for Fortune 500 companies, and after a
lifetime of WMS experience, they walked away with one clear thought. The system was broken. WMS
software was rapidly becoming outdated and sluggish, despite the fact that it was becoming more
expensive. The result was diminishing returns on investment year over year. There had to be a better
way. The founders of Foysonis, began exploring potential opportunities for improving these systems and
very quickly discovered the solution. Cloud-based computing. A way to cut virtually all extraneous cost
out of the WMS process and offer these types of systems to warehouses of all sizes, including those
which previously wouldn't have been able to afford WMS for themselves.

Foysonis was born. However, the founders weren't content simply repacking outdated WMS
technologies in the cloud. Instead, they sought to improve on every facet of user experience and
efficiency, updating their WMS interface with human-centered design philosophies learned over the
past decade. The end result is a WMS that improves speed and efficiency of workers, while offering
flexibility, accuracy, and extreme affordability to managers.

The cloud-based subscription WMS is the first of its kind and it is something we at Foysonis are
incredibly proud of. The world is changing at an incredible rate, and industries of all kinds are being
disrupted by new technologies. WMS is no different. It is time to step into the 21st century, and
Foysonis is here to help you do it.

➢ SMART WAREHOUSING
Welcome to the Foysonis Smart Warehousing Blog! Check out our latest posts to keep up to date on
trends in smart warehousing, warehouse management systems (WMS), and inventory control in the
cloud. We’ll explore current trends related to modern warehouse software, the different types of
warehouse management systems and how it is being used effectively in logistics. We offer the best
warehouse management system, most affordable wms pricing relative to business value, and the most
innovative wms software for small business (and larger companies too!) in the world. We also get that
warehouse management is just one piece of the complex and ever evolving (and more tech- and IT-
infused) global logistics supply chain and growing e-commerce revolution. We are leading the innovation
and keeping abreast of the evolution in warehouse management and inventory control space -- tune in
and join us on the journey!

helping distributors and manufacturers tackle their most complex pain points, cloud WMS provides
new ways of improving efficiency, optimizing labour, enhancing productivity, mitigating risk, and
reducing errors.

A series of interconnected processes focused on reducing the time it takes to get an order from the shelf
to the loading dock, the “smart warehouse” is getting a lot of attention right now. Grappling with
challenges like the trade wars, the massive uptick in e-commerce, the persistent labour shortage, and
the need to cut costs, organizations need modern solutions that optimize their operations.

They’re not getting what they need from their existing systems. That’s because many of them still
depend on old legacy “green screen” systems to run their operations. These platforms continue to do
the bare minimum that they did 10 or 20 years ago, but they don’t help distributors leverage smart
warehousing, nor do they propel manufacturers in the direction of Industry 4.0.

▪ THE WAREHOUSE AS THE STRATEGIC DIFFERENTIATOR

• The persistent and unpredictable trade wars. Companies are literally going out of
business because their current technology solutions can’t keep up with the constantly-
changing tariff situation.

• Keeping up with delivery demands. Both B2C and B2B customers want their orders as
quickly as possible—usually within a day or two. The company that falls behind risks losing
market share to a competitor that’s literally one mouse click or screen tap away.

• Managing high return volume. Driven by e-commerce, return volume will cost $550 billion
this year, up from $381 billion in 2018. As this number continues to mount, companies need
cloud technology solutions that help them efficiently manage this aspect of their business.

• Poor inventory management. In the absence of real-time information accessible on a


mobile device, employees and customers are left to “guess” at the accuracy of their inventory
data.

• Systems that don’t integrate. Built in silos, older legacy systems weren’t designed to
integrate well with other systems. A cloud WMS, on the other hand, can easily be connected
to other operational systems, thus creating a complete smart warehouse or Industry 4.0
information loop.
• Inability to compete on a global scale. When a manufacturer or distributor starts doing
business on a global scale, it needs robust shipment planning and shipment cycle tools that
support these initiatives.
• No robust data analytics to work from. Too many distribution and manufacturing
operations rely on historical data to make forward-looking decisions. The problem is that if
you’re always looking in the rear-view mirror, how can you see what lies in front of you?

As a discipline, warehousing looks simple enough on the surface: identify a product, pick it, package it,
and ship it out the door. In reality, these operations are extremely complex animals that require good
orchestration and deserve high levels of attention.

Add the complexities of same-day and next-day delivery; the rapid uptick in e-commerce; the demands
of Omni-channel fulfillment; and the Amazon Effect to the mix, and it’s clear why a cloud WMS has
become a must-have for any successful operation.

Along with solving the pain points outlined above, cloud WMS also helps the smart warehouse or
Industry 4.0 operation by:

1. Being affordable. No Capex investment required here; just a monthly subscription fee.
Cloud WMS offers “out of the box” functionality that helps to immediately lower the total
cost of ownership (TCO) for the software, with upgrades included in the monthly
subscription.
2. Not eating up internal IT resources. Because it runs in the cloud, there’s no need for a
dedicated IT team to monitor and maintain your WMS, nor will you need expensive
hardware or servers.
3. Getting up and running quickly. The system can usually be configured and branded
within a few weeks (the timeline may be longer for more complex operations).
4. Letting you focus on what you do best. Instead of worrying about running their WMS,
distributors can distribute goods, manufacturers can make great products, and retailers
can focus on serving their end customers.
5. Using devices that your employees already know (and love). With Foysonis’ cloud
WMS, you can choose between iOS or Android, both of which are native to the
application. Deep-six the green screens and the “F1” and “F2” key punches and instead
leverage the advanced user experience already available in today’s smart phones.
6. Updating systems in real-time. With Foysonis’ API (application programming
interface), you can pull data from your cloud WMS and use it to update your systems in
real-time.

▪ MANAGING IN THE FACE OF COMPLEXITY

As more and more companies are impacted by the trade wars, labor shortages, geopolitical events, and
other disruptive forces, the need for technology systems that can adapt quickly is growing exponentially.
Add to this the complexities of e-commerce, omni-channel, and the labour shortage and the need for a
full-featured WMS in the cloud becomes even clearer.

As the fourth industrial revolution continues to take shape, and as more companies invest in smart
warehousing capabilities, demand for robust, cloud-based technology that meets the demands of the
modern facility will also continue to grow.
Unable to flex quickly, on premise legacy systems will no longer be the answer for most companies.
Knowing this, more organizations will look to cloud-based systems that enable high levels of flexibility
and adaptation— all while providing a full suite of services that today’s competitive business
environment demands.

• Good design makes a product useful


What you find as your business grows, and when competition heats up is that you need to scale up and
at the same time keep operational cost for your warehouse operations in check. You can do that only
with a modern warehousing software like Foysonis. And how efficient your supply chain becomes drives
the competitive advantage and the long-term business strategy for your business growth. Using
technology is the only way you can move products from Schengen, China to a consumer in Charleston,
SC in today’s globalized world. By having a modern cloud-based WMS system like Foysonis, you will
bring up new warehouses live in weeks, and view supply chain information in real-time through one
single web interface across your whole network.

Foysonis comes in two flavours; A Premium Plan and an Enterprise Plan. For a plain vanilla single
warehouse operation, the Foysonis Premium plan is the ideal product. However, if you want to expand
your business with much more sophisticated operations and dynamic business rules, and integrate to
enterprise systems, Foysonis Enterprise plan is the best choice. The Enterprise plan has the flexibility to
extend the base functionality, automate the integration of supply chain business data, build custom
reports and labels, provide a REST-based API interface and power-up warehouse workers with industrial
grade RF devices.

In this blog post, we are going to break down the features and functionality of our enterprise plan and
why it would make sense for customers who are growing fast to sign-up or upgrade to our Enterprise
plan.

• EXTEND THE BASE FUNCTIONALITY

Foysonis product design and development philosophy is to make implementing a warehouse


management system as simple as possible. That is the reason for configuring and setting up Foysonis
WMS to run a warehouse takes only a few weeks. However, our product is still very much functional and
useful to the end users, what matters is the fact we get the job done at the end of the day for a
warehouse worker.

Our user interface screens are clean and simple to navigate. We have added only the absolutely
essential fields to the business objects for a core warehouse operation. If you decide to add new fields
to any of these objects, we have our own advanced configuration tool to do so.

This Tool consists of the following key components.

Dynamic Fields

Event Driven Programming

Let’s look at what each of these components does. Using Dynamic Fields, a developer can add custom
fields to a base business object like a Receipt/Item/Order etc. and have it come up on the right UI
screens on the Web Interface and Mobile Devices. End users will be able to add values to this field and
will see it displayed on the relevant user interface screens. You can make the field searchable on the

Web applications or the Mobile applications that run on iOS/Android and the RF devices. 15 16:01

• Enterprise Plan Features and Benefits

With an intelligent even driven programming architecture, we have the flexibility to plug-n-play custom
groovy script throughout the lifecycle of a warehouse operation. Warehouses have different operational
events happening all the time during a daily operation, like a pallet being received into the warehouse,
or a pallet being picked from the storage location for shipment. Events, clearly identify the timeline of
the specific action by a user or system and identify the data or the business object involved in it. If a
pallet is being received, we will know the Pallet ID or the License Plate Number (LPN) it was associated
with the “Inventory Received” event. Using this data the Groovy script will execute a code to direct the
user to a QA location or print special LPN labels for specific Item ID as per the custom business
requirement. The simplicity of groovy and a robust Foysonis SDK let solution engineers implement a
complex workflow for receiving or picking processes without having to restart the Foysonis server
environment, and provide the ability to execute on the fly these scripts. Foysonis SDK provides
programmable logic to plug-into the Foysonis platform to operate on various business service layers like
Receiving Service, Inventory Service, Picking Service and Shipping Service.

▪ INTEGRATION

We have seen so far how easily you can add new fields or plug-in custom groovy scripts to extend the
base functionality. The other key feature you will need when you grow in volume is how you integrate
data externally from your customers and suppliers. That is where the Business Data Exchange server
that is part of the Enterprise Plan will be a huge lifesaver for your operation. Once we configure this
server with the external systems, it will be a system to system communication for receipts coming into
the warehouse, orders that need to be fulfilled or shipment notifications to external systems. You will no
longer need a team of employees in your shipping or receiving office to do manual data entry. This
automation of data not only saves time and money, it will improve any data entry errors that occur in a
manual environment. The data formats will be in CSV, XML, JSON, Flat File, etc. The server will handle
EDI transactions as well. In terms of ERP system integration, you can integrate to SAP, Oracle and
Microsoft business applications. We can also quickly build mapping plug-ins for proprietary homegrown
systems.

With an Enterprise plan, if you plan to extend your distribution network to multiple warehouses, you
will set up and then configure each individual warehouse separately on Foysonis. Once that is done, you
would then use the portal application that provides a real-time view to all of these warehouses in a one
single web interface. Users would be able to look at the inventory levels, the number of products
coming into the warehouse and how the orders are getting fulfilled in each warehouse. It is a 360’ view
of all your operations. If you are a fast-growing 3PL or a CPG company, managing multiple warehouses
across different states, this portal will give you the complete visibility and help you gain deep insights as
to how well your logistics operations is performing.

The Foysonis WMS platform itself is exposed as a REST style API so that 3rd party developers can easily
interact with our platform for warehouse related data in real-time. Making it easy to get inventory data,
the status of orders and shipments. In addition, the enterprise plan also comes with a custom report
development tool that lets you build customized reports to gain new insights into the operational data
of the warehouse. Not only can you build custom reports, you can also easily create the custom shipping
or picking labels specific to your operations.

• SWITCH TO A MODERN WMS

As you can see, the enterprise plan has powerful features to run a complex warehouse operation for
your fast-growing business. The enterprise plan starts at $1499/month for ten users. If there is
additional onsite visit and professional service you need to come up with a custom solution, our
professional service team which has experience working for Fortune 500 companies is there to help.
With our SaaS model, customers will save 40-60% compared to most of the competition. And to add to
that, we don’t tie you into long-term yearly contracts. If you don’t like our product or service, you can
stop paying the monthly premium and just get out of the contract. We know our product is strong that
customers will stick with us for the long-haul. Make the smart choice and run your warehouse in a
modern cloud-based WMS software from Foysonis.

Many businesses switch to a legacy on-premise WMS system from pen-and-paper thinking that it is the
right choice to simplify their warehouse operations. But they end up with more complex and a slower
warehouse operation than ever before. Not to mention about the huge amount of money they have
spent on the system implementation and the new IT hardware infrastructure consisting of RF scanners.

Worry no more! Because now with Foysonis WMS cloud, you can manage all your warehouse operations
right from your iPhone device.

Giving your iPhone more power to run your business than to make just business calls. We at Foysonis
have simplified your WMS operation in a super simple and cost-effective way. For this, all you have to
do is download the Foysonis WMS companion app, once you signup and implement Foysonis WMS
cloud software for your warehouse.

Designed specially for small and medium-sized warehouses, the app is changing the dynamics inside the
4-walls of a warehouse.

Here are some benefits of using your iPhone with Foysonis WMS companion app vs RF devices used in
legacy warehouse management systems.

Here’s how to use Foysonis WMS app right.

STEP 1 : Setup a Foysonis account through Foysonis WMS cloud with ‘User’ access rights.

STEP 2 : Download the Foysonis WMS companion app from the iTunes store.

STEP 3 : Log in with your credentials and you are good to go and manage your warehouse right
from your iPhone.
▪ NAVIGATION & FUNCTIONS

Once you log in to the app, you’ll be taken to the main menu shown in where you can select the task
you need to perform such as receiving, put away, picking or inventory movement.

With the app, you can decide and plan the warehouse operation for the day considering the priority,
based on the number of orders that you need to fulfil or the inbound products you will receive for the
day.

Do you know what is the best part of a cloud based Foysonis WMS? You can assign tasks to different
individuals or teams depending on the tasks you have to perform for the day. For an example, you can
delegate the receiving and put away tasks to a team of warehouse associates, and then the picking or
inventory movement tasks to another team. This will not only optimize the labour force wisely but also
will boost the efficiency of your warehouse operations.

▪ RECEIVING

Here’s how to perform a receiving transaction with Foysonis WMS app. Once the receipt details are
entered to the Foysonis Web Application, you can access the receipts from your iOS device (Fig 1.2).

Select the receipts you need to process for the day and pick the right receipt line. Then scan the pallets
in the receiving staging location. The camera on the iOS device (iPhone, iPod, Tablet) will scan the
barcode of the LPN. Or you can use a Bluetooth barcode scanner with MFi certification for this.

Following are the list of barcodes supported by our smartphone app.

1. Code 39
2. Code 128
3. Universal Product Codes (UPC)
4. International Article Number (EAN)
5. Interleaved 2 of 5

▪ PUTAWAY

When performing a put away, the app will suggest you a storage location available for scanned and
identified items. All suggestions are based on well-defined put away business rules for your warehouse,
so that you can take your pallet or case right to the assigned location without any need for you to pick
your own location manually.

You can also override the storage location to a space if you determine it to be appropriate for the item.

▪ PICKING

Once an order is allocated and has created the picks, you can perform the pallet and list picks from the
smartphone application. Choose the order you need to pick for. Then select whether it’s a pallet pick or
list pick you want to perform.
If it is a pallet pick, the app will take you through a location and pallet ID scanning process.

For a list pick, you will have to choose the appropriate order to complete the pick and the container to
move the case/item pick to. Scan and confirm the location and pallet/case id for the container. Move
the container to the staging location once a product is picked.

▪ SMART TO USE A SMARTPHONE IN WAREHOUSE?

Foysonis is a cloud-based WMS made for small-to-medium sized warehouse operations.


It improves efficiency and accuracy of logistics operations while utilizing a SaaS
software model that makes it the most affordable solution on the market today.
Foysonis, a technology start-up based in Cary, North Carolina, released a cloud-based Warehouse
Management System (WMS) to run small to midsized warehouses. Foysonis offers the solution in a SaaS
model for an affordable monthly subscription fee, enabling businesses to build a smart warehousing
operation powered by a cloud software platform.

To access the software, users only need a computer with the latest browser and an internet connection.
Setup is straightforward and normally takes a few hours or can take a few days, depending on the
master data setup. Customers running their warehouse in a pen and paper environment or in any legacy
WMS software can seamlessly move to Foysonis cloud-based WMS.

The Foysonis WMS platform automates receiving, put away, order fulfillment, picking and shipping
processes within a warehouse. Customers receive unmatched, world-class customer support from
warehousing experts to configure the Foysonis WMS to fit their warehouse operation as well as to
resolve any operational issues. Support is offered 24 hours, seven days a week to ensure projects
succeed.

Customers automate warehouses easily with barcode labels and use existing iOS or Android devices to
scan the labels. This is a time-saving measure for warehouse associates. Built specifically for mobile
platforms, Foysonis mobile apps take advantage of the touch-enabled user interface and the inbuilt
camera to scan the barcodes. Users can also employ special-purpose, Bluetooth-enabled barcode
scanners for the industrial environment in conjunction with their devices to improve the speed of
barcode scanning. With a warehouse-as-a-service platform from Foysonis, customers no longer need to
purchase their own servers to install and run a legacy on-premise WMS software or to hire a large IT
team.

With a classic electric utility model and an Uber-like, on-demand service to run warehouses, Foysonis
has democratized access to WMS software for small to midsized warehouses. One client example is
Headwin Logistics, a leading logistics services company in Dallas, Texas. The company chose the Foysonis
WMS platform to run its warehouses, which enables Headwin to deliver exceptional third-party logistics
services to its customers. Headwin USA Managing Director Ray Counter says, “Foysonis WMS is our
platform of choice to run warehousing operations to better serve our customers and rapidly grow the
warehousing side of the business.”

The team at Foysonis built the WMS platform from scratch for the mobile-first and cloud-computing era.
Foysonis Director of Engineering Srikaran Ariyakumar says, “We’ve designed Foysonis WMS to meet the
unique needs of small to midsized warehouses, with purpose-built applications for iOS/Android devices;
modern touch enabled user interface; and internet scale, cloud-native software architecture. Plus, we
made it affordable for any small warehouse operations.”

The Foysonis founders spent years implementing WMS systems for Fortune 500 companies; during this
time, they realized most legacy, on premise WMS solutions are bloated and expensive to install. They
solved this problem by designing a cloud-native WMS platform and simplifying the implementation of
the WMS. Foysonis is leading the revolution to digitize warehouse operation for the 21st century.

About Foysonis
Foysonis is a cloud-based WMS provider for small to midsized warehouses. Its vision is to simplify
warehouse management and make it affordable for all businesses. Foysonis WMS platform is based on a
cloud-native, service-oriented architecture capable of running thousands of warehouses and billions of
transactions in a highly-secured, cloud computing infrastructure. The product guarantees 24×7 uptime,
reliability, scalability and high performance.

In today’s market, almost all business applications are migrating to a SaaS solution with one big
exception, the Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). Most WMS vendors rehash their legacy
applications as a cloud solution, yet none provide a SaaS solution. The Foysonis team decided it is time
WMS is delivered as SaaS. A SaaS solution makes it easier for businesses to manage small-to-midsize
warehouses to access sophisticated warehouse management software.

Most experts think SaaS is out of the question for a WMS product. Foysonis thinks differently. In 2017,
SaaS will break out as a game changer in the WMS space. Industry experience leads our team to
understand the huge demand for a clean, simple software for warehouse management, one that works
right out of the box. Designed for an immediate launch, our product’s functionality is comparable to
QuickBooks’ straightforward financial management of small businesses.

• WMS CLOUD SOFTWARE CREATES DIGITAL SUPPLY NETWORKS

By moving warehouse operations to cloud, businesses transform their supply chain into a digital
network, mirroring in real time what happens in the physical world to this virtual world. This real-time
experience makes collaboration with external suppliers and customers effortless and enables users to
rapidly react to changing business dynamics at speed.

Once the supply network is connected, users drill down into data in real time, use analytics to gain new
insights and communicate with workforce in the field via smart mobile apps to deliver the right decision-
making information. The product offers a clear overview of current fulfillment activity and complete
control over logistics operations, almost like a control tower managing an airport’s landings and
departures

Once connected and now intelligent, the supply chain network is able to scale. Customers can quickly
add new business partners and suppliers as needed, to expand into new markets and geographies. The
digitized supply chain enables businesses to operate at speed amidst dynamic business environments.

Online warehouse management means businesses stay consistently connected to their inventory data
and the progress of warehouse fulfillment operation. The software can integrate with a whole
ecosystem of business applications, like QuickBooks as well as ERP systems, including SAP, Oracle and
others. The Foysonis Integration API is modern, flexible and easier to integrate than the legacy WMS
vendors.
