Tracking & tracing
EASILY COMPLY TO THE DEMANDS OF YOUR CUSTOMERS AND GOVERNMENT
As a food company, you have to deal with tight schedules and deadlines, because you are
working with fresh ingredients and strict legal requirements (e.g. General Food Law
and HACCP) that you have to obey. In order to work fast, accurate and efficient, all quality-
related matters need to be integrated in a solid ERP system.
Quality control
Production and distribution companies in the food industry must have full control over all
incoming and outgoing goods. Quality controls are essential, just as checks on quantity.
You can manage this process by assigning an inspection status to incoming and
manufactured goods.
The outbound quality controls are defined immediately according to the inspection status.
This gives you control over the actual available inventory, FEFO based picking, insight into
the inventory available for planning and distribution purposes and thus enables you to
supply guaranteed quality.

Non - conformance
Compliance
Non-conformances
All issues can be followed up in a consistent and structured way. In the case of customer non-conformance, this is very important for customer retention
and customer satisfaction. If a complaint is related to a supplier, then financial consequences are of concern for your organisation. Transparency is
created for all employees involved as the non-conformance module is integrated with CRM, Financial Management and Quality. This makes the process
more efficient and decreases the chance of mistakes being made.
Product specifications
Specifications of the raw materials only need to be entered once and SI Foodware will automatically calculate the product specifications for your finished
products. This prevents errors to happen and saves a lot of work. Associated labels, including allergens and ingredient declarations are
automatically generated for your packaging.
Returns, recalls and tracking & tracing
In the event of a recall, all remaining batches of the product are automatically blocked and the Track & Trace procedure is initiated. SI Foodware allows
you to trace both forwards and backwards, so you can alert customers and suppliers. In this way issues can be explained and resolved fast.
Manage returns and establish efficient routines and controls to promote accuracy and higher customer satisfaction.
Create collection notes
Workflow to track return goods from pick-up request through to credit
Protection against double crediting
Fast search to find previous invoices
Full audit trail and traceability for rapid and easy management of product recalls
