ERP for Food and Beverage.
Food and beverage businesses face regulatory, traceability, and perishability requirements that standard ERP cannot accommodate. Sage X3, deployed by Mysoft, handles batch traceability, shelf-life management, recipe costing, and compliance reporting as core capabilities — not add-ons.
What Food and Beverage ERP Must Handle
Batch Traceability
End-to-end lot traceability from raw material receipt through production to customer despatch. Recall readiness requires the ability to identify every affected batch and every customer that received product within minutes — not days.
Shelf-Life and Date Management
FEFO (First Expired, First Out) picking, best-before date management, and automated near-expiry alerts integrated with procurement and production planning. Reduces waste and prevents recall exposure.
Recipe and Formulation Costing
Variable recipe costing, yield management, and co-product and by-product accounting. Accurate product cost calculations that update automatically when ingredient costs change — not quarterly manual recalculations.
Regulatory and Certification Compliance
BRC, SALSA, and retailer audit documentation. Allergen management, label compliance, and specification control integrated with production — so compliance documentation is a system output, not a manual exercise.
Promotional Pricing and Customer Management
Complex customer price agreements, promotional pricing, and retrospective discount management — typical in food retail supply — handled natively within the sales order management module.
EDI and Retailer Integration
Purchase order, despatch advice, and invoice EDI with major UK and European retailers. X3CloudDocs handles electronic notification and acknowledgement within the Sage X3 environment.
Core Capabilities for Food and Beverage Operations
Sage X3 has a strong installed base in European food and beverage manufacturing. The core platform handles the sector-specific requirements listed above without requiring third-party add-ons for batch management, shelf-life, or recipe costing.
Mysoft's food and beverage implementations are scoped around the specific compliance and traceability requirements of the business — not a generic manufacturing template. We work with your quality and operations teams, not just finance.
Document Automation for Food and Beverage Purchasing
Purchase Invoice Automation
High-volume supplier invoice processing for raw materials, packaging, and logistics — capturing, coding, and matching against purchase orders with minimal manual intervention.
Supplier Statement Reconciliation
Automated matching of supplier statements against the Sage X3 ledger — critical for managing the high supplier transaction volumes typical in food manufacturing purchasing.
Electronic Notification and Acknowledgement
EDI-based purchase order acknowledgement, despatch advice, and invoice submission — directly within Sage X3 for retailer and major customer trading relationships.
