In the current context of business digitalization and automation, effective order management between companies, clients, and suppliers requires precision, traceability, and seamless document flow. This is where solutions like OpenKM, a powerful document management software, make the difference.
This use case demonstrates how to implement integrated order management, optimizing relationships with clients and suppliers through modules such as Workflow, EDX, and Doc Request. The approach combines process automation, document control, traceability, and security, aligned with the current challenges organizations face.
The solution aims to streamline document and process management involving three key actors:
Through an efficient document management system like OpenKM, traditional exchange complexities (emails, local folders, scattered documents) are transformed into a structured, digital, and secure workflow.
/Clients/{Client Name}/Orders/{Order ID}/
Document management is essential for any organization dealing with multiple interactions between departments and external agents. Using document management software boosts efficiency by 30% and reduces paper dependency.
With OpenKM, you don’t just manage orders—you can control contracts, manage purchases, implement time tracking, and automate complex workflows. It's a document management software that integrates with existing systems and is accessible from anywhere thanks to its cross-platform design and remote access features.
Unlike other document systems or free managers, OpenKM offers a robust solution with multiple integrated modules. While generic tools like Google Drive or Dropbox allow storage, they lack features such as automated workflows, digital signatures, or full commercial management.
Additionally, as part of the Digital Kit program, many SMEs can finance its implementation.
Implementing OpenKM with EDX, Workflow, and Doc Request modules allows you to transform a complex process into a scalable, traceable, and professional solution.
This solution:
Whether you're looking to digitize invoices, scan documents, or build a robust document database, OpenKM is the ideal document management software to make it happen.
