Once set up, you can get really great specific reporting. There is a some flexibility in getting your processes in place to capture all the required information and keep on top of production and inventory. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Because it's built on Saleforce, it's extremely limited by the core architecture. So comparison reports like looking at sales vs work orders isn't possible. You can make a kludge, but realistically you have to export information into excel or another package to process data.
For example we have to export all our sales data to set up sales forecasting that we then import back in to make MRP functional. This is because the MRP system assumes only the past and can't really reflect future projections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thank you for the review! A single system of record across financials, inventory, and production (GL, stock locations, and cost data in one place, with no more reconciling disconnected spreadsheets) is exactly what Rootstock Cloud ERP is designed to deliver, and it's the same Salesforce platform foundation that makes that unified data model possible.
On cross-domain reporting like sales versus work orders: we hear you, and we'd like to help before you resort to exporting to Excel. While SF reports do have certain limitations, there are likely ways to create the reports you are looking for. Some that come to mind are Joined Reports or Cross Filters, but without knowing the specifics of what you are trying to bring together in a report, it is difficult to offer a solution. Your technical account manager can connect you to resources that can work with you. Your feedback helps us prioritize making these comparisons easier natively, without having to look for an add-on to solve the reporting need.
Thanks for being a valued Rootstock customer!
