What this solves

What a dry fruits and nuts wholesaler deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it

01Today

Rates move daily and the rate list sent to parties is late or wrong, so deals are lost or sold too cheap. Credit to retailers and sub-wholesalers slips past 60 days, and festive dues roll into the next year.

02In MatruOS

MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 2 workflows, 4 registers and 9 licences for a dry fruits and nuts wholesaler, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.

03What changes

The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
