1) Answer Customer Questions Quickly
We’ve all had the experience of calling a customer service line to ask about a particular item and being put on hold for ages. Employees may scramble to ask their manager for permission to price adjust an item or call the warehouse to check inventory. With Microsoft Dynamics GP, you can leave those snafus behind. Sales representatives will be able to access inventory availability, shipping times, item pricing including margins or discounts and even customer history. All in one screen. This wealth of information will enable sales representatives to best serve the customer’s needs as quickly as possible.

In fact, employees can monitor orders through every step of the process. Customers who call asking about the status of an order will be answered easily in regards to combining orders, shipping schedules and the like. It’s necessary to answer the inquiries of customers quickly and accurately to meet their high expectations.

You know more than anyone else how important Key Performance Indicators are to improving the performance of your sales team.

Instead of using a different software system, Microsoft Dynamics GP functions as a tool for sales managers. They’ll be able to monitor sales variations and work with other departments in response to these changes. This software not only allows you to evaluate the productivity of your sales team but also use that data to counsel marketing and production departments.

In a world where technology reigns supreme, having the most interactive and multifaceted accounting software available puts your business at an advantage. Being able to customize the system for employees, better meet the expectations of customers and analyze sales data will create the hyper-efficient, smooth-operating workplace you’ve always hoped for. With Microsoft Dynamics GP, static accounting software is truly a thing of the past.
