Use VISCO be profitable! VISCO is a software company dedicated to improving the efficiency of companies that import and distribute through the use of software. Specifically, these are a few of the problems importers encounter and how we help:
Problem
Inability to track profitability at the transaction level - Because you are using a standard accounting system, you are either getting a standard or average cost when you need to know the actual cost at the shipment level.
Solution
By using the VIS all costs (actual and projected), are gathered at the transaction level, the matched against sales from that shipment, giving you profitability at the transaction level.
Problem
Manual Landed Costs Calculation - You are duplicating your efforts, and leaving room for human error by entering shipment related costs in a system outside your ERP system.
Solution
Landed Costs and Latest Projected Costs are functions of the system. We address both actual and accrued costs and compare them with sales for a given shipment to give you true profitability analysis on every shipment.
Problem
Hoping inventory meets customer specifications - You make sure your inventory meets spec before you ship, but your system does not do the work for you.
Solution
The system handles both your purchase standard specifications as well as your customer's specifications. This information is compared with actual product specs obtained from the Certificate of Analysis.
