Simplify Sales Order Entry and Tracking with 365WineTrade 

Wine and spirits distributors and suppliers are constantly navigating fluctuating demand, managing diverse product portfolios, and managing increasing pressure on margins. In this environment, outdated systems and manual order entry processes can quickly become a bottleneck, leading to fulfillment delays, costly errors, and unhappy customers. 

That’s where 365WineTrade can help. Built on the powerful Microsoft Dynamics 365 platform, 365WineTrade is a cloud ERP solution designed specifically for the wine and spirits industry. With intelligent automation and built-in industry functionality, this all-in-one platform helps suppliers and distributors streamline operations and increase customer satisfaction. 

Leveraging the Microsoft Ecosystem for Powerful Benefits 

Goodbye to Manual Entry and Errors 

Traditional sales order processes often involve multiple systems, spreadsheets, and manual effort. For wine distributors with numerous purchase orders and tight delivery schedules, the risk of errors—such as incorrect quantities, shipping delays, or misallocated freight—can be high. 

365WineTrade removes that risk by automating order entry from start to finish. Whether you’re processing direct orders from retailers or integrating with your eCommerce platform, the system automatically captures and processes orders, eliminating the need for manual data entry. That means fewer mistakes, faster processing times, and more time for your team to focus on customer service and sales strategy. 

Streamlined Order Tracking = Happier Customers 

In a business where customer satisfaction is everything, the ability to track orders precisely and communicate clearly with buyers can be a major differentiator. 

365WineTrade gives your sales, operations, and customer service teams complete visibility into every order, from placement to delivery. You can easily track order status, shipment details, and delivery timelines from a centralized system. That visibility translates into proactive service: your team can update customers in real time, respond quickly to questions, and resolve issues before they escalate. 

This level of transparency builds trust with retailers, helping you stand out in a crowded marketplace. 

Consolidate Orders to Simplify Logistics and Freight Allocation 

One of the standout features of 365WineTrade is its ability to consolidate multiple purchase orders into a single document, making logistics and freight allocation much easier to manage. 

For distributors who need to ship products from multiple suppliers or suppliers managing orders from various distributors, this consolidation reduces confusion, simplifies shipping, and ensures fair freight allocation across the board. That translates into smoother operations, fewer disputes, and lower costs. 

Free Up Time to Sell 

Sales teams are most valuable when building relationships and closing deals in the field, not bogged down in paperwork. 

By automating the sales order process, 365WineTrade gives your team more time to focus on what matters: selling more wine and spirits. Orders are processed faster, inventory is tracked in real time, and internal approvals and communications are streamlined. This creates a more agile, responsive sales operation that can move quickly to meet customer needs and market opportunities. 

A Comprehensive Solution Built for Wine and Spirits 

Unlike generic ERP systems that require extensive (and expensive) customization, 365WineTrade is built with the wine and spirits industry in mind from day one. That means it understands your business, your regulatory environment, and the nuances of your supply chain—right out of the box. 

From TTB compliance to distributor-brand-retailer relationships, 365WineTrade offers features that reflect how your industry works. Sales order automation and tracking aren’t just tacked-on features; they are core capabilities designed to deliver immediate value. 

The Bottom Line: Efficiency, Accuracy, and Customer Satisfaction 

For wine distributors and suppliers, managing sales orders efficiently is essential to staying competitive. With 365WineTrade, you can… 

  • Eliminate manual order entry and reduce errors 

  • Consolidate orders and streamline logistics
