In an industry that forces you to be flexible, it is important to be able to generate correct product specifications in a quick and efficient way. This is where specialized labelling software comes in. Adifo’s BESTMIX recipe management tool was designed for nutrition industries and supports R&D departments, QA units and product managers from first concept to final specifications. Moreover, it is fully integrated within Adifo’s ERP solution, MILAS (Powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations). This strong combination helps to overcome all the difficulties that the nutrition supply chain can encounter concerning the correct labelling of the products.
Label challenges
The most common challenges in that business process originate from legislation, recipe optimization, customer specific recipes, additives and multilingual labelling.
The labels in the animal feed sector (or “feed-tags” in the USA) contain important information about the composition and details about how to use the feed safely and effectively. Most countries require that this info is printed on or attached to all feed products to assist customers and guarantee that their animals are fed properly and kept healthy.
Easy and quick labelling with MILAS
To ensure that our industry specialised software supports our clients, Adifo developed an integration of graphic labels between BESTMIX, Adifo’s formulation software, and MILAS. This integration is now also available in the new MILAS release, which is already based in the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations.
The label is composed in BESTMIX for each recipe separately. Once a new recipe is sent to MILAS (via out of the box interface), a label is sent simultaneously. This prevents the composition of outdated labels. The label design is customer specific and can be tailored to the precise needs of your company. Thanks to the clear interface, labels are easily printed on the delivery documents, bags and more.
One of the biggest industry challenges is providing accurate label information after the addition of, for example, medicine. Adifo’s answer to this challenge is bulk blending – real time label composition for products with additions.
Adifo adds value to your labels
In short, with the solid integration between BESTMIX and MILAS (powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations), Adifo offers best practices and great efficiency improvements to the animal and human nutrition industries. The added value this creates for the broad Microsoft customer community and its partner network neatly fits in our mission statement “Adding value to nutrition industries”.
