Kewill Integrates Financial and Forwarding Systems

Kewill is making global trade easier for its customers with the integration of Sage AccPac Financials to the former’s Forwarding Solution.

The integration will deliver forwarders with an industry standard solution. Users will save resources and money, as data will no longer have to be entered into two separate systems - information entered into the operational system is automatically transferred to the financial system.

This also means that there is only one version of data within the business, crucial for informed decision making. Processes are streamlined as data is no longer duplicated.

Forwarders will be able to bring new customers on board more quickly, which will in turn make their proposition more attractive to new clients, as this will speed up the transit of goods.

Additional enhancements include the Document Packet tool, which allows the user to define which documents to group together to send in a ”bundle” to clients or partners, rather than having to go through one by one. The automated process removes the reliance on the user to remember to send out relevant paperwork.

The Autoresponder tool allows users to manage automatic scheduling of “follow-on activities”. Operatives can define the services to be triggered after a certain milestone has been completed. Alerts can be set for each milestone, which act as a trigger for the next action, and these can also be sent to the customer to inform them of the progress of the delivery.
