Agility Window Interfaces Cut Entry Time, Increase Profitability

Agility, the flagship product of DMSi Software, has seamless window interfaces to the most popular lines. Using information directly from the manufacturer’s system, Agility users can configure, quote and transmit orders. By retaining all of the job and window specific information, these interfaces cut down on order entry time, eliminate double entry, and increase order accuracy to make order processing even easier. Currently, Agility has interfaces to: Amsco, Andersen, Cascade, Ellison, Jeld-Wen, Kolbe, Loewen, Marvin, Silver Line, Simonton, and Windsor.

Window Classics of Hollywood, Florida is a strong user of Agility’s Marvin interface. Window interfaces create orders containing several window units, complete with line items, instantly. Redundant keystrokes, errors, and missing line items are eliminated with a direct correlation to the original order, including descriptions, prices, and reference numbers. Additionally, all credit, purchasing, receiving, shipping and billing ordering information is readily available within Agility. “Our Marvin window interface to Agility has been a major life saver. It has eliminated double entry and has helped us keep up during our company’s growth periods,” explains John Armbrust, Window Classics’ CFO. “We stepped out of the dark ages with Agility and its seamless Marvin interface.”

With Window Classics specialty ordered windows on the rise, Agility offers added flexibility. This accurate information allows Window Classics the ability to offer special customer pricing, print pick and delivery tickets, or track orders. “With our business consisting of 99% special orders, the Agility and the Marvin interface has helped us keep our inventory on hand to a minimum, yet provide better service by issuing purchase orders directly from our manufacturers order acknowledgement for non-stock items,” adds Armburst.  “We’ve noticed a time-savings in every order, regardless of complexity.”
