Challenges

• The former accounting system was no longer meeting company’s growing business needs
• Constantly increasing stock nomenclature (~ 25,000) required a convenient search, and grouping by different criteria
• There was a lack of flexibility in managing price lists, and stocks
• The accounting system was not fully integrated with the WHM system, and e-commerce system
• The process of component procurement planning was complicated, requiring a lot of manual work
