Optimized MRP list for SAP

System requirement: SAP ERP (ECC or S/4HANA)

The optimization simulates the increase of the minimum reorder point allowing purchasers or MRP controllers to optimally benefit from scaled conditions, which simplifies the entire purchase order processing. The procedure increases the delivery capacity and reduces the purchase order costs. The clear display in a user interface is an additional advantage. In this way, the purchaser or MRP controller enters all information relevant for MRP at a glance.

Cash sales processing with SAP

System requirement: SAP ERP (ECC or S/4HANA)

To facilitate the master data maintenance of irregularly sold products, FIS provides the option to create one-time articles. In the master record, they include a rudiment of fixed data (e.g. material group) which is enriched by specific material data when entering sales documents (e.g. vendor, material short text, prices etc.). Together with the purchase requisition, this data will then be transferred to the purchase order where it will be available for further processing. Next, a sales price calculation based on the vendor prices can be executed easily in the sales document.

The tracking monitor is an optional enhancement of the FIS/LastMile app and is used to check and analyze outbound deliveries with your own car pool. As a result, it is possible to track the current location of the delivery vehicle as well as the drivers’ adherence to break times.
