BLUE TRADING (Ink and toner cartridges Recycling and Online Retailer)
Take-away: Reverse Logistics and how to seamlessly integrate SAP Business One to become an Online Retailer
Alfredo Alvarado, CEO at Blue Trading, will be sharing his incredible story of how Consensus adapted SAP Business One to his Reverse Logistic model, overcoming multiple logistic challenges that no out-of-the-shelf ERP could solve. In his session, attendees will also learn about how he was later forced to completely reinvent himself to become an online retailer in order to survive, and how, together with the Consensus Team, he integrated SAP Business One with Channel Advisor and other online tools, making that new business model a reality and going from 6 hours of work to just pushing a button to get the reports he needed to make fast and informed decisions in his day to day.

INTERGLASS CORPORATION (Wholesale, Distribution and Fabrication of Glass and Mirror Products)
Session take away: Using the Power of Excel as a Reporting Tool for Business One
Consensus implementation of SAP Business One as the center of all transactions and data collection because of the ability to cover all areas of the company for Interglass was a success, but when it comes to organizing all the information into a dynamic report that could have the form of a list, a dashboard, or a graph, Miguel Juliao, Finance Director at Interglass decided to connect Excel directly to B1’s SQL database. Join Mr. Juliao in his session to learn how Interglass succeeded at creating a culture where employees do not us Excel to input data. If that were to happen, it would negate the benefits of using a centralized data source in B1. By connecting Excel directly to SAP Business One and using it for reporting and data visibility, Interglass has all the benefits of Excel without any of the drawbacks.
