Help people to use our tools

We believe our tools like ERPNext can help organizations reduce waste and complexity. Frappe + ERPNext has the potential to be a “full stack” replacement for not only ERP (SAP/Oracle) but also the entire enterprise stack (Java/.NET). With this scope, we should help organizations by providing products and services to help them manage their technology platforms.

Challenges

  • Daily Rate Fluctuations: Shinka Agri faced a significant challenge in managing the daily changes in vegetable prices, which required a dynamic pricing mechanism that could be easily updated and tracked.
  • Stock & Order Management from Local Vendors: The company relied heavily on sourcing from local vendors, making it essential to have a streamlined process for stock tracking, order placement, and vendor coordination — all in real time.
  • Multiple Units of Measurement (UOM): With different crops being measured in various units such as kilograms, bunches, crates, and bags, there was a need for a flexible system that could handle multiple UOMs seamlessly without compromising accuracy.

Benefits

  • Dynamic Rate Management: Kanak configured ERPNext to allow Shinka Agri to update and manage daily vegetable rates efficiently, ensuring accurate pricing across procurement, inventory, and sales.
  • Vendor Stock and Order Module: A customized vendor management and procurement module was implemented to help the team manage stock intake and purchase orders from multiple local vendors — enhancing visibility and control.
  • UOM Configuration: ERPNext was tailored to accommodate different units of measurement for various crops. The system was optimized to convert, calculate, and report inventory accurately regardless of the UOM used.
