Translectric, Inc. The Heavy Duty Parts Pros

At Translectric it is our goal to ship all orders the same days as they are received.

While not always possible, we work very hard to achieve this goal. The biggest challenge

in achieving this goal is knowing what to stock. Many of our thousands of products are

seasonal, and with so many products it is near impossible to make sure that you have

just the right amount of everything to satisfy our customers’ needs.

To aid in our purchasing process we use an inventory planning software package created

by Valogix. This software (know around here as “Valogix”) is an amazing program. It

integrates with our business software (SAP Business One), looks at inventory levels, sales

history, and many other factors, and decides what needs to be ordered. You are then

presented with a very customizable interface from which you can review the recommendations

to be purchased. Once you’ve reviewed (and approved) the proposed orders, Valogix even

creates the purchase orders for You!

Many times when placing an order you don’t quite meet the free freight requirements of

the vendor. Valogix can even help with this. It knows each vendor’s requirements, and

makes suggestions about other items that will need to be ordered soon. These items can

then be added to the order to meet free freight.

While the software is a great tool, it’s the people who work at Valogix who make it an

awesome tool! They are continuously working to make their software better, and if you

need help with setup, or if your requirements change, they are only a phone call away.

If all software companies were like Valogix, the IT world would be a much better place.
