Odoo Inventory Management

About Confiserie Jonas

Started back in 2010, Confiserie Jonas is mainly into the production of the hard confectionery and chocolates. Lately, they have been trying to produce vegetable-based products to sustain respect for animals, people, and the environment. The traditional and sustainable way of production has gained them popularity, also resulting in increased customer liability.

The
Challenges

Organizing Operations​

Before our collaboration with Confiserie Jonas, they were using XLS. They were doing manual data entry of stock intakes, sales, invoices, etc. If we consider this process, it is undoubtedly a time-consuming task, which is also directly proportional to low productivity.

Inventory Management Solutions

Odoo being a cloud-based ERP was capable of catering custom business solutions for the chocolate shop. With the help of certified developers at Aktiv Software, they were able to switch to the basic Odoo system. However, we performed a lot of tweaking to suit their business issues, especially invoicing and stock management.

Inventory and Management Issues

  • Improper accounting of Sale/Purchase transactions in Business
  • Unnecessary Workload due to XLS style of maintaining accounts
  • No track of inventory records, which involved the theft of physical inventory items and misstatement.
  • Delayed information about out-of-stock issues drew them away from the customers.
  • Due to no access to business analytics, they were not able to fetch product performance information.
