Generating sales orders is key to the success of every business. A Mobile field sales force spends most of their time in the field visiting customers and placing orders on their behalf. With Field Pre-Sale Solutions salesmen can quickly create and submit orders while at a customer location to enable immediate fulfillment at the distribution warehouse.

With the use of wireless (WWAN) mobile computers and application software that have access to enterprise ERP data sales professionals have the data they need to make the most of every face to face meeting. Having access to this information allows a mobile sales professional the resources to process orders, submit new orders, view inventory levels, promotional information, provide the customer with expected delivery timeframes.

Features and Benefits include:

• Pricing & Promotional Discounting
• Inventory by Store Location
• Unlimited Sales History
• Manage drivers' delivery schedules for orders and returns.
• Create orders based on inventory, restocking levels or need.
• Empower sales personnel to collect customer payments at the invoice or account level.
• Signature Capture - Provide a digital proof of order which can be accessed and printed at any time.

Whether you are delivering perishable or non perishable products automating your delivery process not only eliminates dual entry but can also greatly affect your bottom line and speed up your overall collection process. Arming field delivery professionals with wireless enabled mobile computers and portable printers allows the driver to print invoices, capture a signature as a proof of delivery and manage all the functions of delivery products as well as handling returns.

Some organizations only request their drivers to deliver products to their appointed routes print a receipt or capture a signature on the mobile computer for proof of delivery and some organizations will allow the driver to have more responsibility. The pure Delivery portion of Direct Store Delivery (DSD) is associated with only delivering the products and providing proof of delivery.

Direct Store Delivery (DSD) Full Service solutions combine the functionality of Field Pre-Sales and Delivery. In a pure Pre-Sales a field sales professional would go to each of his remote customers with a mobile computer and determine what needs to be restocked and learn what the customer would like to order and use the mobile computer to place the order whether batch or real-time using wireless communications. In a pure delivery model of DSD the driver is only responsible to delivering the products that are scheduled for that stop and getting signature or print a receipt for proof of delivery

In a Full Service DSD model both of these tasks are combined allowing the field professional to become a full service arm of the company he/she represents. In a full service DSD model the field professional has a loaded truck and has the ability to up-sale, offer promotions, provide discounts, make adjustments to inventory to best serve their customers. In this model he/she is the sales person and the delivery person.
