Order Guide

Designed to cut the time it takes to enter an order by 50% or more, salespeople will actually want to enter orders while they're on the phone!

Customers want answers fast. Salespeople want to take the order and move to the next call even faster. The key to the interaction between salesperson and customer is what can make it easier to get the information for the customer and faster to take the order.

The Astra Order Guide lets the salesrep look at the items the same way a customer sees them. Pull the items right into an order form by:

Customer Price List with the customer's item numbers and descriptions,

Last order,

History of item purchases,

Any prior invoice,

Look-up of any specified criteria.

Once you're in the Astra Order Guide, you can answer key questions immediately from the screen display of date of the last sale, the last price paid, the quantity of the last purchase and the current price and product availability.

If more information is needed, the Order Guide gives immediately access to detailed sales history, pack information and the availability in other warehouses. The salesrep only has to key in the quantities being ordered and the system will do the rest!
