Simplifying Meat and Fish Inventory Management - Image
Client Overview A leading wholesale distributor of fine foods and groceries in the Twin Cities, United States, the client specializes in providing high-quality meat and fish products to their customers. Their operations rely on precise inventory management to ensure efficiency and accuracy in their procurement and sales processes.
The Challenge Despite using Odoo, the client faced significant challenges in managing their inventory, specifically for meat and fish products:

Weight-Based Operations: All sales and procurement transactions were conducted based on weight (pounds), making accurate record-keeping essential.

Dual Inventory Tracking: While transactions relied on weight, the client needed their inventory records to reflect the number of pieces available for better visibility and operational planning.

Accurate Inventory Valuation: The client required their inventory valuation to be calculated based on the weight of the items, ensuring precise financial records.

Odoo Limitations: The standard Odoo system lacked support for dual units of measure, making it difficult to align their operational and inventory requirements.

The Solution: CatchW8 ERP The CatchW8 solution was implemented to address the client’s challenges and enhance their Odoo system. Key features included:

Dual Units of Measure: Allowed the client to track inventory in both pieces and weight, enabling operational flexibility.

Weight-Based Transactions: Automated procurement and sales workflows based on weight (lbs), reducing manual errors and improving process efficiency.

Inventory Valuation Automation: Integrated inventory valuation based on weight to provide accurate financial insights.

Seamless Odoo Integration: Enhanced the existing Odoo modules to support catchweight functionality across procurement, sales, and inventory.

The Results The implementation of CatchW8 transformed the client’s inventory management and overall operations:

Efficient Procurement and Sales: Automated workflows enabled seamless weight-based transactions, saving time and improving accuracy.

Accurate Inventory Tracking: The dual-unit tracking feature allowed the client to view inventory in pieces while maintaining precise weight-based valuation.

Improved Financial Reporting: Automated weight-based valuation ensured reliable financial records, supporting better decision-making.

Enhanced Operational Visibility: Real-time inventory insights helped the client plan their operations and meet customer demands effectively.

Adaptability for Growth: The CatchW8 solution provided a scalable framework to support future business expansion.
