SmartB Ready-To-Use (RTU) Apps

SmartB Platform is a modular design, which enables to architect a BPA solution by combining many modules and incorporate the layer of customization to a precise extent as required in the scope of BPA. In the process, there are many apps that are not built for a specific industry or for a specific enterprise and that could work for many enterprises. Such apps are categorised under Ready-to-use (RTU) or Generic apps. Basically, we can combine set of modules and automate those processes which are common for most of the enterprises. RTU Apps are best to begin with (especially for small enterprises) and scale them by way of customization once they realise the benefits of such quick automation.




Major Ready-To-Use Apps

GoIT

For large enterprises, handling inter department queries would be a big challenge - tracking, accountability, managing responses, quality check, issue analysis and many more. Take for instance, IT department handling 500+ systems across 50+ locations could be a very cumbersome. GoIT module can make things lot easier. Imagine GoIT as Issue tracking system or ticket management app for an enterprise to use it among their own team. The best part is GoIT can be used department wise, which means each department can manage their tickets and have their team to process the tickets. Each ticket is a issue raised by a team member which has updates and status with time stamp.

Asset Management

A large department of a enterprise which manages lot of internal stock items would need a robust asset management app to make proper inward and track the locations where the items are deployed. Asset Management RTU precisely does that. Detailed data capturing along with associated documents can be done at the time of the item purchase and track the items and its present deployed location. This RTU has this amazing feature where in the items can be recorded either as individually deployed or can be assembled into another item and then deployed. Asset Management RTU also works BU wise (department wise) - which means each department can manage their assets separately.

Accounts Express

Accounts Express is a very interesting and important module that every accounts department especially medium and large enterprise would want. Accounts Express is an excellent complementing app for Tally Prime that would seamless interfaces end users and departments with accounts team. Accounts team would never like to give access to their core accounting software (in many cases Tally Prime) to end users. Capturing the transactions at the locations is often done in a spreadsheet or manual book, which is then physically or the softcopy sent to the accounts team. Broadly speaking, most of the accounts team are bogged of doing data entry which is laborious and prone for errors. Accounts Express can capture the data at the point of the transaction along with associated documents, which then can be verified by the accounts team. Once the data is validated, it can either be automatically pushed to the accounts software (Tally Prime) or manually enter only those information required for the purpose of accounting. Accounts Express is an important RTU that can eventuall lead an accounts team towards Zero data entry automation. Pls note Accounts Express is not a sustitute for an accounting software rather a complementing app that simplify and make the accounting processes more seamless and less stressful.

Lead Management

Any marketing oriented enterprise would need a strong lead management app, to track the enquiries, identify the leads and followup till the conversion happens. Lead Management RTU module has exhaustive features which empowers the team to seamlessly manage the processes from an enquiry to sales. Every enquiry is precious for the marketing team and a proper tracking system is vital to improve the conversion rate. The last thing a marketing team would want to do to its prospects is irritate them with unnecessary followups, which often happens due to lack of proper recording of the followup information. This RTU keeps track of complete followup history, so any team member who follows up the enquiry would know exactly what to do next.

Inventory Billing

Enterprises in trading business either use some retail POS app or the accounting software itself (like TallyPrime) for their inventory / billing purposes. Often these apps have many limitations and barely manages to handle unique scenarios each enterprise would demand. Special scenarios like integrated centralized purchase process, distributed multi location inventory / billing, inventory with serial number tracking, high volume billing, interface and communicate with customers with realtime updates / status - this RTU module in SmartB would prove it is a right choice. The ability of SmartB to customize the RTU and seamlessly integrate with any existing app or tool stands out in building a sucessful BPA solution.

NanoCMS

One of the most competetive areas in web development is CMS (Content Management System) and software options. Many content oriented websites use CMS (like wordpress) as the backend tool and a team of site admins would manage the content. The complication begins when the enterprise requires to integrate business data with the website - it could either be a public or members only content. An example for public content would be an enterprise which regularly hires people and keeps a detailed career page content in their website. Integrating the core business processes with the corporate website has many challenging situations - SmartB as a powerful BPA platform has everything to build a seamless functional website.
