| Inventory Consignment |
| Get your inventory closer to the consumer. With Stone Profit Systems your customers become part of your warehouse. Simply assign any of your customers as a consignment location, and transfer your inventory to them. The inventory remains your asset until it is sold to a consumer by that location.
This module keeps all of the consignment inventory very transparent to all your users. The consigned items are always available for sale when it is searched in the system. |
There is also a powerful consignment analysis engine that reports the profitability and average shelf life of items at each consignment location.
The built in bar-code features allows your sales rep to scan the consigned items to determine what has been sold when they visit the consignment location.

| Inventory Holds |
Keeping track of customer holds can be frustrating, but with Stone Profit Systems it's easy. When a product is placed on hold, the system records who the hold is for, the date it is created, the date it expires, and the exact slab(s) the customer might want. Stone Profits can also track the Homeowner, designer, and/or architect that might be associated with the project. Once the hold is created, Stone Profit Systems can assist in printing hold labels for the slabs; as well as printing/sending hold notifications with prices for the customer, and without prices for the other parties involved.
On the administrative side, Stone Profit Systems produce reports that allow you to see the inventory that is on hold with the lead time for each. Say good bye to forgotten holds taking up space in your warehouse. With Stone Profit Systems your sales team will be more productive and proactive with holds.

| Slab Sizes |
Stone Profit Systems gives you the ability to track the ever changing slab size each time the slab changes hands.
When receiving, Stone Profit Systems will generate a receiving worksheet so your warehouse employees can easily record the size of the slabs when they are unloaded. Instead of replacing the purchased sizes | the received sizes are recorded separately so you have a clear record of the changes in your order. The unit landed cost is adjusted according to the sizes; also factoring in the freight cost.
The system will also allow you to record new dimensions when the slabs are sold, and even if the slabs are returned.

| Slab Information |
| Stone Profit Systems stores detailed information for each and every slab/item in your inventory. Now it is easy to know purchasing history, holds, sales history, return history, landed costs, selling price, and much more. You can record notes and allowances; and store photos for individual slabs that have unique qualities or issues. Because the slabs are bar-coded in your warehouse the information you store in the system will always be paired with the right slab.

| Alternate Names |
In the Stone industry everyone has a different name for the same product or color, and your company might have a specific name in order to gain an edge on competitors. With Stone Profit Systems you can store and organizes all of the alternate names that you, your suppliers, and customers use for one product.
When purchasing Inventory, avoid confusion by sending a purchase order with the product name that you supplier refers to, while keeping your records clean with the name you refer to.
|
When it is time to search through your Inventory, it is possible to search by the name you use or the alternate name to get the same result.
When selling to customers who demand a specific name, Stone Profit Systems allows you to mark it as a "sold as" name on their Invoice in order to make the sale and keep your customer happy at the same time.

| Scheduling Deliveries |
We have made it easy to schedule, load, and route your delivery trucks. With Stone Profit Systems you can know exactly how much a truck can hold, what is loaded, and where each truck is going.
Each customer is given a route zone which allows the system to group the deliveries depending on location. After selecting the deliveries the system will produce a loading worksheet that shows the products in the “last in first off” (LIFO) delivery model.
Using a barcode scanner your team can reconcile the loaded slabs with the slabs specified for loading in the system. SPS will allow your team to perform swaps to keep your inventory records clean.
