Industry Pain Points

Inefficient operations lead to delays, errors, and increased risk, which ultimately impacted the bottom line of the business. This further leads to challenges in retaining customers as well as acquiring new customers. Each office has its own additional challenges due to the standard template available in RightAngle, which are:

Inefficient Front-Office Operations

The deal template is incompatible to capture all the necessary data required by the business. The inability to enter internal purchase and sale deals within the system makes it extremely difficult to capture and manage internal trading activities between different departments or subsidiaries.

Time Consuming Middle-Office Operations

Middle office users spend a significant time matching physical trades to the movements, leading to an increased risk of errors and potential delays. With 3rd party tools, the process of capturing rack deals, scheduling them, and handling movements and related BOL files makes the entire process time-consuming.

Ineffective Back-Office Operations

The unavailability of customized invoice templates like payment type drafts, billing, and cash applications makes the process inefficient and error-prone, leading to delays in payment and potential disputes with customers.

Value Creed's Customized Approach to Rack Business

The suggested solution includes customized deal templates, automatcher rules, and invoice templates, as well as drafts for daily invoices and custom reports tailored to customer requirements. These customizations help clients to streamline their operations, optimize the use of the RightAngle tool, and improve overall efficiency, leading to improved customer satisfaction, reduced errors, and increased profitability.

Both user-specific and global templates have been configured, ensuring consistency and accuracy in the way deals are captured and documented.
The templates are customized in a way to capture all the data coming from the 3rd party system to include specific information such as the date and time of the interface, the type of deal, the deal ID, the source of the interface, and any relevant details or comments.

Customization of the Core Automatcher Rule

Captures additional information about rack deals, such as the type of deal (e.g., blending, contract, day deal, exchange, posted) and price market.
Addition of custom checkboxes in RightAngle to ensure data accuracy and completeness, making certain fields (such as stores on the BOL) mandatory for automatching with transactions.
Development of interfaces to bring actual inventory data into the system, allowing to track inventory levels more effectively and minimize write-offs.

Customizations to the Invoice Templates

Customized draft feature for daily generated invoices streamlines invoicing and payment processes.
Customized reports based on different payment types reduce the need for multiple payments and save time and resources.
The drafts include all necessary information such as transaction and payment details, due dates, and total amounts, and can be provided to customers in a variety of file formats such as pdf, excel, and .dtn.
