Organisation
The Organisation Module is used to define your enterprise, whether it is a single company or a group of companies, based in one location or multiple sites.
Define your Organisation
Pyramid ERP can be configured to fully reflect your physical organisation. You can define any number of locations which can contain any number or combination of offices, administration centres, factories or manufacturing units, warehouses or stockyards.
A location may be linked to mileage charts in order to calculate delivery charges using different delivery methods. Delivery prices may be rolled up into a delivered product price, keeping your delivery charge from your customer, but still charged to delivery in the finance system.
Factories can hold products. A factory can be further defined in the Production Module to the physical plant, machinery or workstations within it. The route through the factory each product takes, including where it is stored and the processes that add value can be recorded.
Warehouses can be divided into as many bays or locations as required whether it be a single Bay or Bin to an unlimited number of locations.
Products may also be attached to a warehouse, enabling Pyramid ERP's powerful stock control system to help you manage your stock levels.
The organisation set-up can define the high reporting level breakdown such as profit from a factory and sales from a warehouse.
User security is assigned at a factory level. A user at one factory does not have access to see another factory unless the appropriate rights are assigned. Consequently this also reduces the number of menu choices the user has available keeping the menu to just the operations they require.
Set-up and Security
The Set-up and Security Module allows users to define how modules behave, document flows and user rights.
Controls
The controlling module allows system administrators to define how modules operate to suit the business rules of the organisation.
· With Pyramid ERP, you can define document flows in order to specify what stages are required for Order Processing, configuring the system to suit you.
· Define which user groups can create order documents, who can approve them and who can post invoice to the ledgers.
· Each user has a unique ‘login’ to the system. Passwords can be set to change at defined intervals.
· The menu options’ a user sees depends on which forms they have access to. This gives the user a clear, uncluttered work environment, removing menu options they don’t use or should not have access to.
· Using the Access Levels, administrators can set which factories or offices users can access and define what rights to which forms and functions a user can have access to.
· A full audit trail is provided recording the user and the date against all transactions.
· Restrictions of access to forms and functions allows a clear and definite segregation of duties to be defined.
· Approval processes for Purchasing and Sales Orders can be created with Order Entry Clerks having no approval rights.
Approval limits can be set on orders. This provides a mechanism for orders that fall below minimum pricing levels or not at a customer’s defined price level for authorisation to be required by a more senior user.
