You enter detailed information about each potential customer into the system, including the fact that they attended this tradeshow and may be interested in your new product. Now, one of those potential customers calls to make an order. You quickly find the customer contact card, and see that the last interaction was a sales letter for the racing bicycle. You check inventory in real-time and see that there are no bicycles in stock.Using the Order Promising feature, you let the customer know when he can expect it, based on production and lead times for the product. You see that the system recommends a certain pump, bag and water bottle to go with this bicycle. So while you’re at it, you increase the value of the sale. You also sell a service contract specifying details such as parts covered, preferred payment method and the duration of coverage, and enter it into the system on the spot.Plan for changeMicrosoft Business Solutions - Navision helps you plan and reorganize production to meet new and changing market demands.
