Swedish Agro: A fully integrated store system

Using the ERP to the fullest

Swedish Agro’s ERP solution, Microsoft AX2012, was not up to date with the organization. This meant that there were flaws in the store processes, which imply that the order delivery process was slower. The solution simply did not live up to the industry, which meant that they did not use the ERP system to its fullest.  

Solution based on current ERP-system

It was important for Swedish Agro, that the system and change that was going to happen, was not too large. The solution was to implement a more suitable Dynamics AX system, hence the AX Retail and Enterprise POS in-store chains. This was done by using their current ERP system, AX 2012, as a basis, and then adding the Retail and Enterprise parts. Then it was possible to make the solution as smooth as possible for the organization. To get the best possible outcome, there was developed integrations to specific agricultural modules, simplified order management in stores and provided support for price management inc/exc VAT.  

A consistent system

After the implementation, Swedish Agro has now harmonized the store process and gained better control over the order to delivery process. Moreover, the new established parts make their system more transparent and supports the chain's business flows from order and finance to inventory and retail stores. Now Swedish Agro have a more consistent system, that supports all aspects of the organization – from stores to management.
