eReckoner now offers an innovative processbased
e-commerce solution, covering the entire
Order to Cash cycle through the web. e-
Reckoner is essentially an extension of Reckoner
Commerce that enables you to leverage your
external processes optimally, besides the
automation of internal processes through
Reckoner Commerce.
e-Reckoner gives your company efficiency in
supply chain management at every level of your
operation and provides users with a personalised
interactive merchandising experience. It provides
a platform for authorised buyers and sellers to
transact and benefit from a wide range of e-services.
In the Procurement process, e-Reckoner
integrates an organisation with supplier and
manufacturers. It improves the purchasing cycle,
makes available products at negotiated prices,
reduces purchase order costs, and cuts down
inventory levels. Further, it enables establishing
a direct relationship with the vendor, thereby
eliminating intermediary levels.
e-Reckoner tracks the entire procurement
process through formally initiated documents like
Online Vendor Registration, Online Enquiry and
Quotation Submission, Online Purchase Order
Monitoring and Tracking, Online Supplier Integration
and Online Invoice Acceptance.

The implementation of the sales cycle in e-
Reckoner integrates an enterprise with its
Distributors, Resellers, Branches and
Warehouses. Business transactions are
carried out online.
This reduces organisation’s sales costs,
expands market reach, creates new sales
channels, boosts sales and improves
customer satisfaction. The Customer can
have a 24-hour access to inventory availability,
realistic order delivery estimates, online order
placement and complete order tracking.
e-Reckoner records each Sales Transaction
through documents like Customer
Registration, Online Order Receiving, Online
Dispatch Monitoring and Online Invoicing &
Payment Receipt. Automated e-Mailers are
used for transferring relevant information.
e-Reckoner is a 30 MB size application to be
installed on the client machines in a WAN setup
through the internet or with a VPN with the
database installed on the server in a Central
Location. Its menu interface is similar to that
of Reckoner Commerce. This is meant for the
regional offices, Head Offices where all the
accounts, materials and sales functionality is
required.

For integration with the vendors, customers,
distributors, and remote users within the
organisation such as those in sales offices,
retail outlets,etc., where limited functionality
is required, the functionality is provided using
Kiosks. For using kiosks no application or
database is installed on the user machines.
Whereas eReckoner is primarily meant for an
organisation’s internal users, the kiosks are
designed for external users.
The most remarkable feature of e-Reckoner
is that it shares a single database with
Reckoner. Any transactions made through
either Reckoner or e-Reckoner
instantaneously update the database. There
is never any requirement of database
replication or uploading . This also means that
consolidation of data is never required which
automatically ensures complete accuracy of
information and substantial savings in time and
manpower costs. A direct connection is
established with the database located at the
server and any modifications whatsoever are
directly made to the central database.
For using kiosks no application or database is
installed on the user machines. For precisely
this purpose, the kiosks have been designed
in order to allow access to only the information
that is relevant to a particular type of user.
