Project Overview
HealthCare, formed through a series of mergers and acquisitions, unites a diverse group of healthcare-related equipment Providers in the Nigerian region. Hence an automated solution was needed to accomplish the required push in current processes.
In the early stages of its formation, the health care five acute stores all functioned using their own enterprise resource planning and healthcare product selling systems, and we used smaller systems or manual processes with limited technology platforms for supply chain functions.
"As HealthCare continued to mature and build its network by acquiring additional entities, the need to implement Odoo ERP system - and a single source of truth for financial and supply chain data became critical to building a foundation for integrating these new facilities into one common platform.

How We Did It
Challenge: Implement An ERP System
Have one ERP system for the entire health equipment system that would serve as the source of truth for data and one supply chain team at the corporate level.
Solution:
Like almost enterprise-wise undertaking, implementing Odoo ERP Systems requires a lot of planning, effort, and monitoring to ensure success and minimize problems.
Addressing challenges head-on and making sure you’ve done your due diligence means that you’ll be able to feel confident in your organizational implementation and keep the costs and time down as much as possible.
Challenge: Pull Distribution
Use a single set of item descriptions system-wide, with one ERP item number for each item (one item master should be across the entire system for all acute entities).
Solution:
The pull distribution model operates according to the principle that the lowest node in the supply chain – the retailers or end consumers – order goods from the next node in the supply chain based off their needs.
This then ripples up the supply chain towards the factory or manufacturer who execute a production schedule based off the needs of their distributors.
Challenge: Procedure To Pay
Align the procure-to-pay process across all equipment entities.
Solution:
Make a procure to pay Approach, starting with the procurement side, include, first, a requisition order essentially, an internal request to purchase something which starts the ordering process during which a purchase order (PO) is created.
The next steps involve receiving the good, common documents created in this phase include an advanced shipping and order confirmation.
Finally, there is the payment side, which typically includes creating an invoice, arranging to pay suppliers and recording the transaction in the accounting system.
Challenge: Electronic Data Interchange
Dramatically improving the number of electronic data interchange transactions like: purchase orders, sales order, invoices, inventory.
Solution:
Manage Many types of documents that are typically exchanged between businesses. The most common documents exchanged via EDI are purchase orders, Sale order invoices and shipping.
But there are many, many others such as invoice, bill , customs documents, inventory documents, shipping documents and payment documents. These all make specific format wise.
