Sales Pricing support in MILAS using BESTMIX data
It goes without saying that cost prices are very volatile in the world of agricultural commodities. This makes it quite challenging to determine the price of the finished products. Due to the nature of this business (raw material price volatility) the product formula can often differ and change in a formulation software such as BESTMIX and should always be based on the most recent data.
MILAS, Adifo’s ERP Solution, helps companies to address this challenge. By using formulation software, for example BESTMIX, users can easily send the data related to ingredient cost price to MILAS after optimizing a certain feed and receiving a new version. This data is the most recent data available and will be used to formulate.
Once MILAS receives this data, it is quickly converted into the quotation available to your customers. It’s possible to add certain discounts and charges plus the expected margin. There is a range of different possibilities how to send such quotations to the customer, MILAS can print and/or email an appropriate business document. Nonetheless, the most important aspect is that the quotation is based on the recent, valid data. As soon as the quotation is confirmed by the customer, MILAS converts the quotation into an effective price list – making sure you have a correct price and discounts/charges available in the system. A price list can be valid for a certain period/quantity and once available in the system, users will never have to enter the price again.
With this BESTMIX/MILAS sales pricing support, Adifo would like to help companies in the nutritional supply chain to manage that important business process in a standard way.
