The Pain Point: Manual Data Entry and Its Drawbacks
For many distributors, sales order entry is one of the most critical tasks, directly impacting the order fulfillment process. Yet, the process can be tedious and prone to human error. Traditionally, when a customer sends in a purchase order (PO), your team has to manually enter each item into your ERP system, double-checking for accuracy and consistency. Even with experienced staff, the manual entry process often comes with risks—errors can slip through, delays can accumulate, and employees are bogged down in repetitive tasks.
Enter QuickParse, a game-changer designed to address these challenges head-on.
What is QuickParse?
QuickParse is a powerful, intuitive feature within 10X ERP that allows users to seamlessly drag and drop a customer’s purchase order (in PDF format) directly into a sales order screen. The feature automatically extracts relevant information from the PO and maps it to the corresponding fields in your ERP’s sales order entry module. The result is a swift, accurate, and efficient sales order creation process that saves time and reduces costly errors.
How QuickParse Works: A Closer Look
The process of using QuickParse is as simple as it gets. When a customer sends in their purchase order, you no longer need to key in each line item manually. Here’s how QuickParse streamlines this workflow:
- Enter Customer ID: Before using QuickParse, enter the customer ID to ensure the extracted information is correctly mapped to the proper customer account. This step helps establish a reference point for the purchase order data.
- Drag and Drop: Users simply drag the PDF of the customer’s PO and drop it into the designated area within the 10X ERP sales order entry screen. No special training or technical know-how is required—just a quick, intuitive action.
- Automated Data Extraction: QuickParse scans and intelligently extracts vital information from the PO, including the customer’s details, line items, quantities, pricing, and more. Leveraging advanced parsing algorithms, it automatically identifies these fields, drastically reducing the chances of human error.
- Field Mapping: QuickParse automatically maps the extracted information to the corresponding fields within your ERP’s sales order once the data is extracted. It’s designed to seamlessly integrate with your existing sales order processes, enhancing efficiency without disrupting workflows.
- Review and Confirm: After the data is parsed and mapped, users can review the extracted information for any discrepancies or special notes from the customer. With all the critical details filled in, the sales order can be saved and finalized with a click of a button.
The Benefits of QuickParse
The addition of QuickParse reflects our commitment to empowering our users with tools that drive productivity and profitability. Here are some of the key benefits you can expect from this innovative feature:
