Automating inventory planning processes

Edco was managing its inventory by extracting static sales and stock data from their SAP B1 ERP and pulling this into a spreadsheet for further analysis. Once they had determined their forecast using bits of data and a lot of gut feel, they would enter their orders manually into their ERP. This process was taking an immense amount of time, and the more the business grew, the more complex the spreadsheets became. Besides the complexity issue, there was a considerable amount of person-hours required, and human error when inputting data was inevitable.
