Study #2: National Cosmetic Retailer

Stock Ledger Balance Problem

The Challenge:

This national retailer needed to balance the stock ledger to the inventory valuation report before the auditors came and before the end of year. Several software contractors had tried but not achieved the expected results. Master files were corrupt with invalid departmental hierarchy and store information. The stock ledger had to be rebuilt without interrupting nightly posting of sales.

The Solution:

The Great Woods Group corrected the master files and simulated the rebuild in order to bench mark the window needed for the live rebuild.

The Results:

The stock ledger balanced to the penny. The ledger file rebuild was performed on the weekend with a dedicated system in order to not interfere with regular business operations. Business was up and running Sunday afternoon ...ahead of schedule.
