Van Moer Logistics counts on iTOS for handling complex paper business flow
Van Moer Logistics takes care of the storage and transport for a number of companies active in the paper industry. In order to ensure that the complex logistical processes run smoothly, the company relies on the powerful Order2Cash tool iTOS from iOnLogistics.
The applications for paper are extremely diverse. That is why paper exists in many shapes and sizes. And that is precisely what makes storing, loading and unloading it so complex. A separate product code for each possible combination of properties would be almost impossible. The majority of paper production companies organise their stock on the basis of properties.
iTOS makes inventory management by basic properties easy
There are not many warehouse systems (WMS) on the market that are flexible enough for a company to configure its range on the basis of properties. Van Moer Logistics found this option in the iTOS package from iOnLogistics.

This means that they do not have to juggle with different Excel files and can process their customers' orders without errors. And will there be a new customer in the future, who defines their offer on the basis of more properties? Then Van Moer Logistics simply adds them in iTOS.

Van Moer Logistics can easily and efficiently upload purchase orders in different formats into the system, without manual retyping. Also the communication with the customers goes more efficient and professional, because iTOS makes it possible to link back to the customer about when which goods were unloaded or loaded, on which transport, how much stock is left, etc. In this way, everyone is kept informed in real time.
Van Moer Logistics also benefits from more efficient invoicing
Thanks to iTOS the follow-up of the invoices and payments is much easier. For each customer, Van Moer Logistics can configure when an invoice should go out and can also determine the applicable rates for each 'movement' in the stock.
Another peculiarity in the paper industry: some companies only want to be invoiced when a transport has been loaded and unloaded, others pay after both loading and unloading. In addition, the complexity of the stock translates into a different storage price. All these factors make invoicing difficult.
