Tracking Inventory

caffeinated — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 13:52:58 GMT

Can anyone recommend some affordable inventory software? One that illustrates trends and can assist in forecasting? I am an owner of a gourmet coffee shop and am finding it difficult to track what I have left in storage. Come reordering time, I find myself overstocked with certain items, and understocked with others. Telling a customer I'm all out of large cups and having them order a medium is money out of my pocket.

accounting software with inventory management

Currently using Quickbooks Premier (Wholesale/Distribution) but it doesn't allow for multi-warehouse inventory tracking. Any suggestions for software that does? Quickbooks recommends Velocity Inventory which is an add on to Quickbooks Enterprise (somewhat expensive at $3,600+). Looking into Peachtree and Sage DacEasy - any experience with either? Please let me know.

Thanks so much!!!

Any recommendation on product sales reporting tools?

Can anyone recommend some sales reporting tools for managing the business? We input all our orders into a computer system and categorize them by basic product codes. I can download the basic sales information by timeframe, but I'd like to do some more sophisticated analysis on the revenue and profit that is generated by product type as well as potentially track the product inventory and average amount of time it takes for the product to sell. I know that the insight I will get is only as good as the data I input into the tool, but I want to make sure I pick a tool that can grow with me before I go to all the trouble to start entering the all the data. Thanks for helping me grow my business!
