Everything at a glance with the "advanter 7 workbench"

With advanter 7, your order screen becomes a “workbench”. On your personal workbench, you maintain an overview and stay in the flow of your processes. You have a complete overview of the entire order, including the live status, on one screen.

All relevant functions, information and status messages can be found in the document screens, organised by subject area. Sorted chronologically according to your workflow sequence.

You receive live information on the respective task area at the click of a button and can take action directly from here: issue approvals, communicate, plan and monitor graphic files and their deadlines. This allows you to intervene more quickly with minimal effort, fulfil tasks or set the course for a smooth process flow.

With the advanter 7 mail function, you can generate an e-mail from the order. The addressee receives an HTML e-mail notification with the relevant information, your message and a button. A click on this button takes the recipient directly to the relevant document.

Data and its interpretation and analysis are becoming increasingly important these days! The success of flexible planning and short-term optimisation and adjustments is often based on processed and readable data. No decision should be made without a sound data basis. All information comes together in the “advanter 7 MIS” (Management Information System).

From all areas. In real time.

With the information from the new order backlog analysis, you can define the roadmap for the future of your company. The intelligent dashboards for management or production visualise your data at the highest level and constantly provide you with new approaches for optimising your workflows.

advanter 7 – print+sign exclusives

The industry edition print+sign has been enriched with numerous new features and functions. Particularly in the area of costing, there is hardly anything left to be desired for large format printing or digital printing. Here you have numerous new options for optimising your margins:

  • new, more detailed options for pre- and post-calculation
  • import of Excel lists for job creation
  • variant selection
  • precise price calculation
  • time-saving, intelligent auto-calculation: the parameters for the calculation are adjusted and advanter automatically converts the changed target format into the appropriate print and cutting formats. Always optimised for the best possible benefit: minimum material costs and minimum waste. All information on waste, efficiency, time and consumption costs is displayed immediately after changing a parameter.
  • stock reservation: when the final costing items are stored, the required materials are reserved in the warehouse directly for the production of this order. In the event of non-availability, corresponding feedback is provided.
  • campaign orders (import, administration, delivery, invoicing), processing as if by itself, standard campaign orders can be processed almost completely automatically.
  • automated assignment of print files/motifs to the order items
  • framework calculation 2.0
  • optimisation of ancillary cost invoicing
  • sub-format creation
  • creation of collective production orders
  • automated production planning
  • Based on the entry of the delivery date, production is automatically pre-allocated and digitally planned. Including timing of all sub-items as well as upstream and downstream trades, including consideration of capacities, capacity utilisation, set-up times, etc. Of course, there is every possibility for flexibilisation. In the event of rescheduling, the upstream and downstream trades are taken into account and rescheduled accordingly.
  • Logistics planning: advanter 7 provides you with a valuable tool for utilising the numerous potentials in the logistics sector. From the automated printing of all label variants, the issuing of digital transport orders for goods movements, “advanter parcel creation”, the seamless connection of carriers or multicarrier software to the automatic feedback of all logistically relevant items and expenses for post-calculation in the “shipping and freight cost list”.
  • Picking & parcel creation: with advanter 7 you can also pack your goods virtually: select material, retrieve weight from connected scales, print label, finalise parcel by entering the user code. No information is lost. Everything is transparent. Error rate: almost zero.
