It’s happened to everyone – duplicate order entries. It wouldn’t happen if only one person worked in the office and handled everything from order execution to accounting, but that isn’t how businesses are run in the real world. In the real world, of course, more than one person is needed to get the job done, and so duplicate entries can be a problem.
Duplicate entries are most likely to happen when a company is doing business the old way: with legacy systems like Excel, Word, and Outlook. Duplicate orders are difficult to avoid when using this older technology because files, orders, invoices, etc. are often spread out amongst various staff members in various offices on various computers – making it very difficult to keep things organized.

If your fixed assets aren’t recorded, monitored, and disposed of properly, fixed asset accounting can be an inefficient process. Not keeping track of serial numbers and warranty information on those fixed assets can cause many problems when it’s time to do the books.
Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word are no longer the go-to software programs for fixed asset management. Many operational supervisors are locked into these antiquated methods, from paper files to notations in notebooks to Excel spreadsheets to Word documents. Those things are apt to be disorganized and crowded with data, making it difficult for decision makers to find what they need when they need it.

Distribution and supply chains rely heavily on information to keep the conveyors moving, products flowing, and customer orders filled in a timely manner.
Sometimes, though, such information isn’t available when you need it – it can only be found after the fact: a line shuts down because a part must be searched for to see if it is in inventory or a custom order must be filled immediately.

Your employees are a long-term investment for your company.The cost of workshops and continuing education is far less than the cost of interviewing, onboarding, and initial training. Choosing a program that will offer program-specific training is a big step. Training can be the link between company goals for keeping pace with industry trends and improving employee morale and reduced attrition rates. Employees who feel valued are more likely to be committed to the organization and will take a sense of 'ownership' in their role.
