Continue readingWelcome back, enthusiasts of process efficiency and streamlining! Let us dive into the digital ocean of Cin7 Core, the modern evolution of DEAR Systems, and explore a game-changing feature fresh off the development lines. With a striking balance between simplicity and complexity, Cin7 Core is set to redefine business efficiency with its suite of tools. And, the icing on the cake is our focus today – the ‘Awaiting Approval’ status filter.
In this era of relentless innovation, Cin7 Core unveils the ‘Awaiting Approval’ status filter. This newly launched feature is engineered to drastically alter how you oversee your sales and purchases. A feature that was once solely accessible when Core to Core Networking was enabled, is now ready for action irrespective of the status of order or quote approval.
Visualize the convenience of efficiently segregating your sales and purchases based on their ‘Awaiting Approval’ status.
This innovative update isn’t just a feature change; it’s a paradigm shift that guarantees a fluid and hiccup-free workflow, proving to be a boon for all Cin7 users!
Before you leap to harness the power of this novel feature, some prerequisites require your attention. Start by logging into your Cin7 account. Once inside, enable quote approval by navigating to ‘Settings’, selecting ‘General settings’, then proceeding to ‘Sale process customisation’ or ‘Purchase process customisation’.
For the ‘Awaiting Approval’ filter to function, it is imperative to set user access rights accordingly. Essentially, the approval setting must be disabled. If this sounds complex, don’t worry! Cin7 Help, available through Cin7 Academy, can guide you through this process, ensuring a smooth transition.
The functionality of this feature is simple yet robust. The ‘Awaiting Approval’ status can be selected from the status filter dropdown menu when examining your sales or purchase list. This addition significantly simplifies the tracking of your orders awaiting approval, thus enhancing your control over the sales and purchase processes.
To illustrate the practical application of this feature, consider this workflow scenario: When logged in with a limited user account, the creation of a Quote enables its Authorisation. However, an additional layer of approval is still required. This sales order or quote now becomes visible in the list of items requiring approval, making it easy for managers to swiftly locate and approve or reject orders.
Cin7 Core’s comprehensive design also allows you to approve or reject an order using the mass action menu when listing orders. The API ensures that these processes run seamlessly, adding to the charm of this versatile feature.
Our journey from Dear Systems to Cin7 Core is laden with innovations like the ‘Awaiting Approval’ status filter, tailored to smoothen your workflow. As we walk into the future together, we’re excited for the limitless possibilities Cin7 Core opens up for your business. Remember, the key to success lies in innovation and productivity.

It is extremely frustrating for delivery drivers to collect signatures on paper from customers.
What’s the point of signing on paper when you can sign on glass?
Moreover, paper must be kept for the next five years, and retrieving it when needed is another nightmare.
Our application helps solve that problem.
We created an application that lets drivers (or people who pick up) collect signatures as proof of delivery.
It is possible to capture a signature or a photo with the application.
You can take a photo of the goods delivered, or you can take a photo of the signed delivery document.
ALL OF THIS IS SENT BACK INTO DEAR, INTO EACH SALES ORDER AS A PDF DOCUMENT & DATA FIELDS.
A barcode on your delivery document can be scanned with a scanning device, making the application even easier to use.
Although the application does not require barcodes or barcode scanners, it does speed up processing and reduce errors.
We have three different devices to choose from. Devices are optional but recommended.

Looking to find answers about Xero Inventory management?
When it comes to accounting, Xero is exceptional online accounting software. In fact, the Xero mantra is synonymous with Xero and beautiful business. Of course, Xero is extremely powerful in terms of features and logic for calculating the GST, cost of goods sold, tracking categories, purchase order control, sales, and invoices, not to mention the excellent features for bank reconciliation and its many integration options.
But it must be kept in mind that Xero is primarily an accounting software that integrates with other software via API. This allows development teams and organisations around the world to focus on their niche and do it properly without trying to solve all the problems in one solution. Have you ever heard of SAP, or Oracle? Those giants are slow to move and labour intensive to feed every day, but yes they can do quite a lot and can deal with large organisations with complex and/or unique requirements.
Small business owners far and wide, potentially even you, are or will be trying to use Xero inventory to run your business. Our customers typically contact us to find out how they can use Xero for accounting and inventory tracking purposes, and then once they made a little progress they run into a few roadblocks like e-commerce integration, payment reconciliation, unique pricing, stock code and description management, customer-specific pricing and stock take issues to name but a few.
More and more retailers, wholesaler and distribution companies, especially as they grow, get to grips as to how important stock control and real time tracking is, but often fails to understand where, if at all, their Xero account is capable of handling their various inventory management requirements.
Now, we acknowledge that Xero inventory management is a thing, but it has limited capabilities, especially when comparing Xero inventory management with the likes of Dear Inventory, for example. Xero inventory management, unfortunately, lacks all the OOMPH and more tricky but necessary components business managers want.
Consider stock takes and inventory adjustments for example, or purchase orders with batch numbers or expiry dates. What about multi-location and tracking serial numbers. Not to even mention barcode scanning stock in and out or selling those items via eBay, Amazon or Shopify and let it automatically link to Courier companies when it needs to be delivered. So in short, if you ever even thought about using barcode scanners in your business, then Xero must make room for a specialised add-on module. Oh, and don’t even think about running a warehouse full of stock with just Xero. No.
Stock Control is a specialised task, and it should not be limited to rights reserved Xero and beautiful excel files. That is just plain dangerous as many Excel versions will be floating around and it will end up being 20 times more labour intensive than a proper solution, guaranteed. In the realm of specialized cloud-based systems, Xero is an amazing accounting software program, but there is a reason it promotes its accounting functionality. You need something better to manage your stock, and online sales.
Dear Inventory however and beautiful business are trademarks, not just for Xero anymore, but for almost everyone who uses Dear. People swear by the amazing integration capabilities of Dear Inventory and Xero (or Quickbooks) and how their new business software (aka Dear Inventory) and the way they do business is not limiting anymore. Rather Dear Inventory allows and promotes small businesses to grow exponentially in sales and revenue into large corporations and even then, can still cater for complex scenarios. We have clients with annual revenue of over 100 million dollars running on Dear Inventory.
So even though Xero is great for real time accounting software with simple steps to generate invoices, for example, it really offers little when it comes to inventory management. Software4Business recommend that you start using Dear Systems as your business operating software as it fully integrates back into Xero anyway. This will give you the best of both worlds. Best in accounting and best in stock control. Give us a call, we work with Dear Inventory all day, every day and have converted and implemented Dear projects for many businesses in Australia.

Continue readingWhat is Dear Systems you might say? Well, we are glad you asked. Most small businesses struggle with inventory management. It’s a time-consuming task and one that is often left to the last minute. This makes it difficult to optimize stock levels. DEAR Systems however automates the most time-consuming aspects of inventory management so you can focus on growing your business instead of just managing it.
In addition, Dear Systems has powerful reporting features that allow you to analyze sales trends and make better decisions about what products sell best at what times.
Dear System’s easy-to-use interface gives you instant visibility into stock levels and order status for up-to-the-minute knowledge of your inventory positions across all locations in real-time. Dear also provides automated processes that save you time while keeping your stock right where it needs to be – reducing costly mistakes like overstocking or understocking items based on past history by using predictive analytics from machine learning algorithms combined with human intelligence. What else?
Inventory management systems can be a necessary evil. They’re typically expensive, cumbersome to set up and require extensive training on how to use them. But NOT Dear Systems. Dear was designed to simplify business by making inventory management easy for everyone in the supply chain, including manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers and retailers.
Dear Systems is an inventory management system that provides instant visibility to your customer’s orders, stock on hand and supplier’s purchase orders coming in. With Dear systems, you will be able to track sales, analyze previous orders and manufacture from raw material to finished goods. All from within one cloud-based platform!
Wouldn’t it be great if you were able to see which products sell well, and which ones don’t? Wouldn’t it be better yet if your customers could buy online, at their price point without having to wait for them to come into the store, or emailing an order through? With Dear Systems this becomes a reality.
Stock replenishment is also easy. To get a better idea of the future, Dear allows you to look back at your history. This means tracking inventory and ordering patterns. What Dear Systems will allow you to do, is free yourself from pen and paper or clunky spreadsheets that don’t work with your workflow anyway, and optimize stock levels resulting in more free cash flow!
As a small business owner, you understand the importance of keeping track of your inventory. It’s not just about one more tool to help you succeed. Your ability to keep track of inventory is essential when it comes time to analyze sales trends, promotions and purchasing. These tools are critical in helping you assess where your money is going each month – which can be very useful for planning future purchases and sales, especially if you’re getting close to being out of stock on a particular item.
To facilitate optimization, Dear Systems creates barcodes that you can easily print out when stock arrives, and use them throughout the life cycle of your product, from warehouse receipting to retail outlet sales. The system works with all kinds of inventory types, such as physical, service, gift cards, bill-of-material and non-inventory items.
Barcode scanning and inventory management systems have been around for decades. They were originally designed to make tracking products easier on a large scale, but they’re also incredibly useful in smaller businesses where an employee is responsible for purchasing, picking, stock takes, and selling items directly to customers. Dear Systems will help almost everyone in the organization to use the barcode function and increase efficiency.
We can all relate to the annoying feeling when we run out of products to sell! But with Dear Systems, that will never happen. Dear allows you to stock up on products automatically based on the “Minimum Before Reorder” and “Reorder Quantity” fields.
The issue of running out of stock to sell is a serious problem that could easily be solved. Dear Systems is amazing in optimizing purchase order fulfilment. This allows you to optimize ordering and save money on the items that are most needed at any given time. By using Dear, you will be able to make sure that your inventory is always stocked when the orders come in.
