Process Automation and Workflow
Unleash the potential of Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains)
Where To Start? Youngland can help!
While it is impossible to have employees work 7 days a week, 24 hours a day making consistent decisions according to business rules without incurring additional cost, workflow technology can eliminate constraints of time, economics, resources and human limitations by automating business processes that would otherwise require an impractical level of time, money, resources and capacity to execute.
Workflow is defined as “the computerized facilitation or automation of a business process.” Developing an automated business process requires both tools and materials. The workflow system is the tool that is used to easily assemble an automated business process. It uses specified events, business rules, conditional routings, predetermined tasks and data from the enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to seamlessly integrate that business process “structure.”
ERP workflow tools can be used to automate internal processes, as well as customer and supplier interactions. It enables event management in various forms such as supply chain management, customer interactions, quality initiatives, inventory reduction programs, faster new product introduction, and reduction of outstanding accounts receivable, etc. The application of workflow tools is specific to a company’s business strategies and objectives.
Here are some of the typical real world samples:
Order Administration: Workflow notification to be sent via e-mail to a salesperson whenever a customer places an order. It is verified against the original quote and a sales order is created. As a result, salespeople are able to quickly check order accuracy, taking into consideration the products, quantity, pricing, and terms.
Accounting: Process by which an invoice is generated and mailed to the customer after the product has shipped. Workflow automates the accounting procedures where documents, information or tasks are passed between participants according to a defined set of rules.
Customer Service: Detect and track new customer service requests from start to completion. The process automatically routes the request to the most appropriate customer service representative (CSR) with the required data. Reminders are sent to the CSR when issues are not closed in a timely manner, they can be escalated to higher levels of management if needed, and customers are notified of changes in the status of their service requests.
