Althea Suite Offers Custom ERP Solutions for Retail
Digital integration has made businesses run more effectively, but it also created the need for businesses to manage a host of business software. While, in one way, these different software solutions are solving a problem, the management of all this software can easily reclaim the time supposedly saved by the software.
Fortunately, there are Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) services. ERP is a business solution that integrates the management of common business processes, to ensure the maximization of data collection, representation and results.
Althea Suite is one of the best ERP service providers, offering a comprehensive, custom suite of software management to fit their clients’ specific needs. Whether you are a smaller business in the Bellevue, Washington area, looking to expand or a large corporation, looking to manage your range of software, Althea can accommodate your needs.
What is Althea Suite?
Althea is an experienced, dynamic, team of more than 20 skilled developers, who are ready and able to build your custom solution quickly and efficiently.
One of the prime reasons for Athea’s success is that the company integrates a state-of-the-art, cloud-based HDPOS billing with customization that is created for your individual business.
Instead of building a one-size-fits-all ERP and making clients pay an exorbitant amount for solutions and integrations they don’t need, Althea’s developers work with you. This way, you get exactly what you need at a price you can afford.

All this is helpful information when curating your SMS and email marketing campaigns.
Book Keeping
Book Keeping is often the hardest (and arguably the most important) part of owning a business. Sometimes, it can feel completely overwhelming. After all, the more business you have on a daily basis, the more Book Keeping you need to keep up with. Therefore, Athea has developed a system for helping automate these otherwise repetitive, daunting, and time-consuming tasks:
- Daily collection
- Auto transactions
- Data entry corrections
- Customer aging
- Credit limits
- Tax management
Manage Sales
Sales management is another portion of a business that often falls under the umbrella of redundancy and time-consumption projects. However, it is also a pertinent part of keeping the business healthy, organized and profitable. Fortunately, Althea has found a way to integrate sales management software, so that you can keep track of sales and returns, multiple price lists, customer groups, and loyalty programs with ease. By implementing this integration, you will always have real-time access to this important information, without the constant upkeep that comes with it.
Inventory
Althea developers can wrangle your wild inventory with the company’s extensive inventory management system. This integration provides your items with serial numbers, batch numbers, expiration dates, a Bill of Materials, stock transfers,
stock in transit reminders, and stock audits.
Therefore, you can spend your time on the inter workings of your business, while Althea takes care of the monotonous, yet vital job of keeping your inventory under control.
