What is Item Master Management?
Product Master is a record that lists critical information about an inventory item, including products, raw material, semi-finished goods and services. Manufacturers can also define Bill of Materials (BOM), to create standard consumption templates.
Item Master Management is classified into 3 Categories:
- Inventory Item
- Non-Inventory Item
- Services
All items and materials managed in the enterprise can be grouped under various headings and can go up to the ‘nth level’ of the category. Product groupings can help you analyze stocks based on brand, category etc. Our ERP supports multi-level grouping with detailed analytics based on period, location, customers, agents and sales executives.
Item Master include information such as Name of the Items, Alias, Item Description, Cost of Goods, MRP, UPC (Product Code) and Safety Stock (Reorder) Levels. You could also specify physical dimensions of products such as size and weight of the product. User defined fields allow you to add more information like Brand, Color etc. based on your business requirement.
If your products require after-sales-service, you can also define warranty period and frequency of preventive maintenance. System will help you track support and maintenance call with integrated help-desk.

One of our clients was struggling to have a complete view of his sales of one particular item. This critical information was needed to decide on the purchase of that item. The struggle was because he was using a manual data, finding it challenging to browse multiple excel-sheets. There were delays in decision making leading to probable losses.

Every time he had to purchase an article that was needed, he had to go through the file of quotation, while in Accounts ERP, it was done on a single mouse click.
