The warehouse management system requires further improvement. Right now, there is no built-in application for using barcodes or QR codes by the warehouse or operational teams. Customers often rely on third-party add-ons for such features. There should be a mobile-based handheld application, especially for the warehouse team or the operational team, to use barcode-based or QR-based scanning. In additional features, it would be great if the mobile application supported barcode and QR code usage. If this feature is available, it would be very useful.

Well, we have made some improvements like making new rules or new fields that we need for our business process. Overall, though, the processes that already exist in the tool have been very useful for us and we have been using them the way that they are and just making little customizations for our company. Adding an HR feature would be great. SAP has another model that is only HR, but it works separately more for big companies instead of ones like ours that use Business One. If we could have something to manage HR stock, that would be great. I would also be interested in a model that would manage travel expenses. The solution has a feature that shows you the purchase order that you put on a project and requires you to approve it to be applied to the project, but it doesn't let you move the purchase order to another project. That would be a great feature to have, because if you don't approve it, you have to delete everything and make it again, instead of just moving that purchase order to a different project. That would be really useful for us, because our company works by project, so if a purchase order is on an incorrect project, we have to delete everything and then start the process again with the new project.

There are a couple of significant challenges we're currently facing. First, our production team can't make use of the production planning features, as they require a Professional license and we only have access to the Logistics license, which is limiting our capabilities. The majority of the reports we generate are intended for managerial purposes. While most reports are straightforward to comprehend, there are a few exceptions that can be quite complex. It would be beneficial to have access to real-time data from our machines. This is crucial for monitoring all activities within our manufacturing processes, from software operations to the machinery used.
