Quotes are the critical starting point in the sales-to-invoicing process. ABW's Configurator ensures precise alignment with customer requirements, while the Book It! feature seamlessly converts approved quotes into Work Orders — eliminating manual steps and accelerating order fulfillment.
Once Sales Orders are created, Picklists are easily generated for the shop floor and invoicing is supported by robust inquiry and reporting tools that ensure accuracy, control, and accounting integrity.
ABW also supports dual Item Code display: customer-facing documents show the customer's own Item Code for clarity, while internal documents retain yours — so your team always knows exactly what is being produced and sold.
"We have had the pleasure of working with Info-Power for many years, and they have consistently been a reliable and valued partner. They are exceptionally easy to work with, always responsive, and bring a high level of knowledge and professionalism to every interaction."
