Modules presentation #
ALIX is divided into several modules :
The different modules are accessible in the menu on the left.
Let’s see them in detail in the next pages.
Home #
The ALIX Home page is divided into two sections: Attendance and Dashboard.
The Attendance section contains a digital time stamp that allows time management, lateness, absences, breaks and meals.
The Dashboard section can be customized according to your needs.
Items #
Items are the products or services you process in your business. These can be made and/or sold and/or bought. It is important to create your items and configure them well to be able to use ALIX to its full potential.
Every time you create transactions for your customers or suppliers, you can add these items and their details will be filled automatically.
Sales #
In the Sales module, you can manage everything related to sales orders. Create orders for your customers by adding items configured in the previous section. Then, take care of this order by creating manufacturing orders, assigning it to a shipment and invoicing it.
Purchases #
In the Purchases module, manage inventory supply. Create purchase orders, send them to your vendors, then receive your goods and add bills.
Planning #
The Planning module allows you to have different recommendations :
- Inventory planning provides inventory recommendations to produce or order.
- Shipment planning allows you to view sales order items and whether they are ready to ship or not.
- Project planning allows you to visualize the items needed to complete a project and whether or not they are in stock in sufficient quantities.
Depending on the recommendations, it is then possible to create purchase orders, manufacturing orders or shipments.
Operations #
The Operations module presents a board allowing you to see, in a very visual way, all of the production operations. This is where employees on the floor work moving cards across the board through the different stages of production.
Inventories #
In the Inventories module, manage the stocks of your items. This is where you can also manage the receipt of your goods and the shipment of your sales orders.
Talents #
Talents represent the employees of your company. In this module, besides creating your talents, you can manage all talent information in addition to timesheets, pay sheets, departments, positions and shifts.
Equipments #
Equipments can represent any machine or tool used during the manufacturing process. Their creation is essential for managing their maintenance and obtaining data on their performance.
Dashboards #
In the Dashboards module, the data collected in all other modules is transformed into analytics that provides you with the business insights needed to enable decision-making.
