Footwear context
Why Business Intelligence works differently in Footwear
In Footwear, footwear production center on sector-specific concepts such as size-color variant matrix, last/model management, leather-sole consumption. In footwear production, the size-color variant matrix, last/model variety and leather-sole consumption require functions to separate stock and cost at variant level.
Qera ERP's Business Intelligence module is set up around how the footwear sector works: Tracks sales and stock performance by model, season and variant on dashboards.
- When size and color variants can't be managed under one product code, stock and order tracking gets tangled.
- When the season and collection plan doesn't match capacity, deliveries are delayed.
- When leather, sole and accessory consumption isn't tracked clearly, the true model cost is unknown.
