Fashion Inventory Matrix provides a powerful solution for wholesale and distribution companies dealing with multi-dimensional inventory items. The Fashion Inventory Matrix helps companies provide top-of-line customer service, better manage inventories and improve the purchase ordering process.
If you have ever worked in apparel, footwear, luggage, or any industry that has complicated dimensions, then you’ll know how frustrating it is to create purchase and sales orders.
For example, a footwear wholesaler will need a specific item number for each item that specifies its style, size, and color. A brown hiking boots size 11 will have a different item number than a size 12; or from a black hiking boot of the same size; or even brown dress or shoes of the same size. In short, a change in each dimension will create a distinctly independent item number.
As you can see this means a simple order has become a frantic scavenger hunt for the item numbers needed to fill an order. Luckily, we have a solution that renders this tedious process obsolete: The Inventory Matrix for Microsoft Dynamics GP.
