The UA Sales Forecasting solution connects your sales team to your production team. Sales managers can review historical sales and customer demand to produce sales projections, and can readily revise these forecasts as conditions change. In fact, managers can maintain an unlimited number of forecasts. From the forecasts, master production schedules can be created efficiently, without duplicity of data entry. Manufacturing and production orders can then be created, again without inefficient re-keying of information.
The UA Sales Forecasting solution also allows comprehensive what-if planning. In this way, production planning, materials requirement planning, and capacity planning, along with associated costs, can more easily be assessed.
With the UA Sales Forecasting solution, sales and production managers can predict and prepare for any eventuality, and coexist in harmony.
