“very simple to use”
Pros
During a very busy stretch with forecasts changing often, one of the biggest benefits for me has been how simple the software is to work with. It helps a lot with planning by clearly showing when items are needed and what quantities to expect.
Cons
Once the inventory sites were changed in the system, the reporting started showing incorrect information and too many planned orders which threw off the inventory balance.
