The company, which imports and distributes a variety of processed meats, uses third-party cold storages and trucking companies for their inventory. This allows them to operate remotely from laptops. However, as their business flourished, QuickBooks alone was not sufficient to handle their growing needs. One of their third-party cold storages also functioned as a manufacturer, making assembly a major requirement for the company. QuickBooks lacked the bill of material functionality needed to track raw materials in the manufacturing process used to make a finished product for inventory, which is an assembly product. Read More
