How much of it there is; where it’s coming from and where it’s going to. These questions are virtually impossible to answer with entry-level systems, because entry-level systems are simply designed to manage bookkeeping functions and only capable of reporting on specific types of data. We believe: for your decisions to have an effective impact on growing your sales, cash; managing your inventory, customers and suppliers – that your ERP system has to be fully built-in from the start. For ERP to be effective, it needs to be built into your inventory, fulfillment, eCommerce, CRM and Customer Case Management.
Aplicor 3C built all of this in one system from the start. All information is collected and viewable from within a single database and is where you have an instant, real-time and accurate picture of the things impacting your cash: like inventory levels, purchase orders, fulfillment, outstanding quotes, returns and accounts receivables.

Young growing companies many times start with software to help record events in the business such
as invoicing, payments and balancing the bank account. In the beginning, these entry-level systems
do this quite well, but start to lack the depth of functionality required as the number of customers,
products and transactions increase. More volume and variability leads to more complexity and
eventually – chaos. To efficiently grow or scale, growing companies need to bring more order,
predictability and repeatability to everything it does, which means that new automation and
processes are needed to continue the growth in revenue, margins and profits.

intervention is designed to automatically keep the entire system in balance.
Balances and cash flow are also automatically calculated and updated without requiring extra steps of posting.
