25 Jun 2011
Apparel21, a leading ERP solutions and services provider tailored specifically for the fashion production, wholesale and retail trade, today announced the release of its latest solution, Apparel21 V2011.1.
Already used by innovative fashion houses such as Accent, 2XU, Stitches and JETS Swimwear, Apparel21 empowers organisations to improve product margins, reduce costs, increase revenue and optimise the production process.
With the release of Apparel21 V2011.1, companies will have access to even more powerful functionality that will enhance sales with trade partners, tighten control over the product makers, allow retail planning across all channels, and support customer loyalty programs.
Apparel21 V2011.1 sees the inclusion of Apparel21 SalesNet, a secure online wholesale channel for trade partners to quickly and easily place orders from real-time stock levels whilst seamlessly tapping into Apparel21’s business rules. Permitting buyers to access relevant products and prices as well as analyse historic sales orders….Apparel21 adds to the competitive advantage in a challenging market.
“In the fashion industry it’s important to make doing business with you easy. With the addition of Apparel21 SalesNet we are providing our wholesale customers the ability to sell to their trade partners easily and cost effectively,” said Luke Haites, Managing Director, Apparel21.
Following extensive client and industry workshops, the new release has redefined its grading rules module to increase its flexibility as well as control over the making process.
“The sampling process is critical within the production environment. With Apparel21 V2011.1 our customers will now be able to communicate more effecitively with their makers as well as manage the production lifecycle more accurately for improved quality and greater output”, said Luke.
Other enhancements within the release include data capture capabilities at the point of sale as well as improved stock receipting processes that will ensure stores do not suffer from any sales downtime.
