Problems Faced By Them
01
Handling large data
-
With a large customer base and adding new clients continuously, the client faced the problem of managing large amounts of data. Added to it was the challenge to have all data in one place.
02
Handling their invoicing cycle
- The client wanted to have a system through which they can generate invoices and send that to their customers.
- The client also wanted to build a customer centric portal where they could allow their customers to view their invoices, statements and process payments.
How We Helped Them Using Salesforce
We analysed the requirements and came up with a full fledged solution to handle the use cases for their business:
- Built a custom application for uploading the data into the salesforce custom objects. This allowed the business to upload tons of data into Salesforce custom objects.
- Built a system which enabled the client’s finance team to simplify the invoicing process. Right from generating the invoices to handling payments, the system handles every aspect of their invoicing cycle. Following are some of the salient features of the system:
- Invoice generation and storing on cloud storage service
- Intimating customers via an email with their generated invoices.
- Enable end customers to view their invoices in a portal.
- Enable end customers to make payment against outstanding invoices.
- Enabling customers to add credit which could be used to make payments.
- Enabling customers to opt for auto pay.
- Enabling the finance team to track payments and perform other operations.
