P-Ex Supply Chain and More
Our Flagship Supply Chain Solution
P-Ex is the primary program in the P-Ex family of products.
It is designed for use primarily in the B2B environment, to enable you to take control of your purchase and sales orders, receipts and despatches, stock levels and locations, and invoicing.
It started life as a lightweight version of P-2, designed to allow remote users to work quicker and with less data transfer. It has since been where we have added all new functionality, and has become the main program that we offer you.
Implementation
P-Ex can be implemented just as quickly as P-2, i.e. in days, not weeks or months. A more complex implementation can control purchasing, stock and sales operations for a multi-company, multi-site, multi-currency organisation with many divisions and departments. It can be bought for use by just one user or for many.
We would be happy to talk to you about making P-Ex do what you want to do. We have a number of ways of configuring the software to your individual requirements. Also, if your requirements go beyond what the program can do out of the box, then we can add new screens, tables and processes in very short order and at a very reasonable cost.
Practical Information
P-Ex is written in .Net in Visual Studio 2022, and delivered using ClickOnce technology from Microsoft. It keeps itself up to date once installed. We tend to release a new build every few weeks.
Downloads
Order Management
You can create and edit sales orders, purchase orders and works orders all on the same screen in P-Ex
Stores Management
Once the orders are created and placed, the next step is one of these:
- Receive the goods against a purchase order
- Despatch a goods agains a sales order
- Update the quantity manufactured against a works order
This part of the program can help you carry out stocktakes and stock transfers and confirm despatches, and we can customise this extensively to add your own business process requirements into the process of receiving and despatching goods.
There is also an Advanced Stores Management function that lets you use the stock replenishment tool that lets you re-stock a main location by placing purchase orders on approved suppliers.
Invoice Management
This helps you to create a sales invoice or match up a purchase invoice, and create credit notes whenever needed. It also enables bulk invoicing and repeat invoicing.
Stock Management
This function provides shortage reports and reorder reports that highlight whether you need to bring stock in to fulfil orders and when you will need to reorder goods to fulfil outstanding orders.
Other Standard Features
P-Ex also features sales quotations, a paste and recognise function to help populate databases, a retail sales function, budget management and Intrastat.
It also replicates all the master file mainenance from P-2.
Customisation
As well as the main P-Ex functionality and the ten 'Other Features of P-Ex' mentioned in the P-Ex brochure, we have provided bespoke solutions for many of our clients, including:
- A Production Data Capture system, using Android devices and scanners to capture the progress of orders through the factory. This has a huge amount of master data and allows users to see where orders are in the system, and what capacity remains available. A manual data capture program complements this and allows corrections and supervisor data entry, for example about quality problems.
- A web-based reports package (the B2B Portal) so a client's client can look at what stock was on hand, how much of it was committed, and to which orders.
