How Gleematic Helps

Our first approach was to understand the processes and workflow implemented by M&P International Freights sales team. Within their needs, we customized several “scripts” (a set of instructions for the bot to follow).

Next, our bot collects the three types of documents in a word format. Our bot then converts all the documents into PDF files. After that, our bots will convert them again into excel files. Then, our bot combines all three types of documents into one master excel file.

Following that, our bot consolidates the sell-in and sell-out database, then it will make sure all the data are balance on the inventory stocks sheet. All the stock reporting processes can be done 5X faster. The warehouse administration staff are also now happy to work on their job.
