NETSTOCK INTEGRATES WITH MICROSOFT DYNAMICS
Netstock is built to drive agility and growth
Integrating with Netstock enables you to optimize your supply chain planning while anticipating dynamic market demand and supply risk.
Your current reality
While your inventory control is near perfect in Microsoft Dynamics, many businesses still export data, manually compute safety stock, reorder levels and inventory orders, and then transfer the information into spreadsheets. Manually adjusting forecasts and inputting and updating of product classifications is time-consuming and can result in costly mistakes. Relying on analog tools in a data-driven world can put your business at a disadvantage, limiting your ability to meet demand and expand your operations.

Forecasting
Netstock uploads historical data from your Microsoft ERP and Netstock’s forecasting engine will automatically create a base forecast for every item at every location, taking trends and seasonality into consideration. Netstock allows you to override these forecasts at any level based on industry knowledge.
Item classification
Netstock automatically classifies and continually reclassifies every stocked SKU according to its sales value and velocity. The classification matrix will automatically enable you to focus time and resources on the high-performing items that matter most to your customers and drive profits for your business.
Safety stock
Netstock achieves dynamic safety stock levels, providing accurate calculations for each item based on the item’s classification. If something changes to an item, for example, the supplier becomes unreliable, Netstock will automatically increase the safety stock level needed. This guarantees you never have too much or too little safety stock.
Measure supplier performance
Lead times can be uploaded from your Microsoft ERP or set directly in the Netstock App. Netstock will automatically measure lead time performance and adjust safety stock based on supplier risk calculations. Reviewing previous supplier data allows you to plan for longer lead times, ensuring your customers receive the right items on time.
Manufacturing planning
Netstock automatically explodes dependent demand from the finished goods through Bill of Materials [BOM], using projected consumption demand to optimize inventory at the raw material level. Netstock also offers finite capacity planning based on a bill of resources.
Top-up orders
When placing recommended orders, there is often space left in the container that should be topped up with other orders to make shipping cost-effective. Netstock scans your inventory and selects items close to replenishment, enabling you to top up with the right products instead of manually adding to your container based on gut feel and incurring excess stock.
Experience rapid ROI
Netstock is designed to shorten the road from rollout to ROI. Experience value from day one with a customized monthly subscription model that offers advanced solutions as your business grows.

Our customers say it best
Our biggest challenge before implementing Netstock was the clean-up we had to do with our ERP data before the implementation process could begin. We had open purchase orders, suppliers not assigned to items, and other data cleansing issues. Once we got our internal housekeeping and data right, the actual Netstock implementation was smooth sailing. We appointed production champions in each region, who ensured that the change management at user level went smoothly, and once the users saw how much easier Netstock made their jobs, they were quick to embrace it.
