Reporting tools for food/drink businesses with UnityF8

The principle of UnityF8 food software is to capture all your business data into a single database so it is easy to manage and report on.

Flexible, in-built reporting

You can use UnityF8’s reporting tool to instantly report on any data in your business, such as:

  • Live factory floor data
  • Real-time stock & warehouse data
  • Data from finance and other departments
  • Data from suppliers
  • In fact all the data from across your business!

With UnityF8 you can present business information in a number of formats to suit your needs. You can build reports, graphs, or export information into a separate program if required.

UnityF8 also has Business Intelligence functions for advanced reporting.

Accurate information to aid effective decisions

Most importantly Formul8 ensures your food business has instant access to:

  • Accurate, usable reports based on up-to-date information
  • Reports are instantly accessible to all relevant users

This helps ensure your food business makes effective day-to-day decisions.

UnityF8 captures all your food & drink business data into a single database, so it is easy to manage and report on.

You gain easy access to all this information with Business Intelligence and Reporting tools and a configurable dashboard. This transforms your business data into information which can be presented graphically or in report format.

Access to information is immediate, whether for ad hoc enquiries or for automated reports.

Benefits include:

• Faster and more accurate reporting
• Improves decision making
• Improves customer service
• Management of KPI’s
• Improves control of your business

Supporting in-depth analysis and effective decision making, Formul8 management reporting tools offer real benefits across the breadth of your food & drink business.

Business Intelligence

Unlocking the data held within Formul8, the business intelligence tools provide you with visibility across all areas of the business, so that management remains informed and in control.

Historical and current business data can be analysed to provide a complete on-screen view of the business, in areas such as:

  • Customer buying patterns
  • Promotion analysis
  • Customer and product profitability
  • Debtors
  • Yields
  • Wastage analysis
  • Inventory

In addition, just one glance at the Formul8 dashboard of colour-coded graphs, KPI’s, tables and reports will quickly inform you of what you need to know.

With its visual displays and intuitive menus, business intelligence lets you put simple yet robust analytical capabilities in the hands of those responsible for running your business.

E-mail Utilities

To support the above, reports can be created and distributed via an e-mail attachment, either on an ad-hoc basis or at a defined time.

In addition, Formul8 provides the facility to send an e-mail alert to nominated users when a defined condition is met within the system. Alternatively, an SMS text can be sent.

Examples of such alerts include:

• Sales order put on credit hold
• Customer complaint received
• Stock suspended
• Production confirmed with a high / low yield
• Change to the preferred supplier against a raw material

Success Story

"The release of new products now generates alerts to relevant people including product status and costs. And after a few weeks we completely stopped the printing of any Purchase Orders, promoting savings in both time and paper. Formul8 has been a real success."
