Infor SyteLine/CSI ERP Inventory Control
Also known as CloudSuite Industrial (CSI), the Infor SyteLine ERP system gives you more control over your inventory by providing greater accuracy and immediate access to inventory information throughout your company. SyteLine automates the process of tracking parts by adjusting inventory whenever you create a transaction involving a part.
SyteLine updates and maintains raw materials, work-in-process (WIP) and finished goods inventory quantities and costs. Inventory items can be designated as purchased, manufactured, or transferred so that you can immediately place a purchase order or issue a job order when you need a particular item.
