Hosted DSD
With MIDAX, DSD becomes truly paperless!
Conventional DSD runs off an in-store file downloaded from a host. Receiving is batched for subsequent transmission and consolidation in A/P. In practice, the file is often wrong. The result is a pile of paperwork, debit notes and credit notes, the height of which is in direct proportion to the number of stores you have.
MIDAX DSD is a browser application running on Pocket PC terminals online to the central server.
If there are any problems at receiving, they are identified online. Any discrepancy is noted on the receiving terminal and subsequently rectified electronically in Buying or A/P. All changes are retrofitted to the deliveries so that the books balance.
Consolidation and vendor payment now becomes a simple task:
• Create vendor transactions online
• Select which items to pay and choose either vendor price or chain price
• Auto-posts the transaction(s) directly into A/P with MIDAX
As well as a saving in receiving of on average 10 minutes an order over conventional systems, the major saving is in A/P, where MIDAX Host Based DSD can save you up to 80% of clerical time over conventional receiving systems.
