QMC is a solution built for NetSuite to manage all costs related to procuring and distributing inventory. By managing these costs, your business will have entirely new insights into margin and profits. This provides users with the information they need to optimize pricing strategies and, ultimately, maximize profit.
There are no external integrations or tools required to utilize the application - most users won't even know QMC is an additional App.
The application is quick to install and configure and integrates into your standard NetSuite Order to Cash and Procure to Pay processes seamlessly. There is a wide range of configurable features to meet your unique business needs.
Eliminate Manual Entry of Transactions - with standard NetSuite any additional costs such as freight, customs, commissions and documentation must be added manually. This can be done as separate lines, or separate transactions - with QMC this entire process is automated.
Advanced Filtering - Determine when costs should be applied to transactions using advanced filtering and criteria. For example
If purchasing inventory from an overseas vendor to the Netherlands using the DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) Incoterm, the vendor will be responsible for all costs (including customs).
However if purchasing using the CIF Incoterm (Cost, Insurance and Freight) the buyer is responsible for handling customs clearance and any import taxes.
Automated Variance Management - QMC automatically identifies and reconciles discrepancies between budgeted and actual costs - minimizing manual intervention and providing accurate financial information
In-Depth Margin Insights - Gain insights into margin at various levels, which 20?? Pre-configured reports to support most use-cases. Our reports are configured utilizing all three of the standard NetSuite tools (Report Builder, Saved Searches, SuiteAnalytics Workbook) so can be configured further if required.
