Morel

“Our sales process can range from a few hours to a few days. In this time our inventory is constantly fluctuating, and once an item is sold out, it usually never restocks. OLK simplifies our sales process; the integration with SAP Business One makes it easy to identify information related to the products in real-time while creating commercial documents, ensuring there are no oversold items, securing the validity of the documents, and giving our customers and us confidence in the information.”

– Jacobo Segman, General Manager Morel, S.A

Testimonials

With OLK we have achieved control and have information that we never imagined we could; for example, in the details of our sales based on territory, we follow contracts established with each brand we represent because we can sell certain brands to only specific countries or territories, and not to others. OLK allows us to stay within the rules, and not sell brands to Clients in restricted areas; it’s really efficient.- Ilan Segman, Purchasing Manager Morel, S.A.
