Food & Beverage context

Why Business Intelligence works differently in Food & Beverage

In Food & Beverage, food production center on sector-specific concepts such as batch/lot traceability, shelf-life, recipe and blending. In food production, batch/lot traceability, shelf-life and regulatory compliance are mandatory; in a recall, every function must be able to show the whole chain from raw material to customer.

Qera ERP's Business Intelligence module is set up around how the food & beverage sector works: Business intelligence integrated with Microsoft Power BI. View your ERP data on dashboards; monitor finance, sales, production and inventory performance in real time, and base decisions on data with role-specific reports.

Without batch/lot-level traceability, identifying affected products quickly in a recall becomes impossible.
When shelf life and expiry dates aren't tracked, products nearing expiry turn into waste.
When recipes and scrap rates aren't calculated clearly, the true product cost is unknown.
