American Fastener Journal Talks Fishbowl Inventory and QuickBooks

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/04/2013 -- Recently the American Fastener Journal reported how The Bolt Company of New Mexico is using Fishbowl Inventory. Although The Bolt Company of New Mexico is a relatively young company it has roots that go back three generations. JC Barnhill started his bolt company the year of 1959 in Albuquerque, NM. With a family raised in the fastener world, it is not surprising that the third generation has carried on the family tradition. John Barnhill opened "The Bolt Company of New Mexico" in 2009 to carry on the highest standard of a bolt company. John is joined by experienced co-workers in the fastener and business world.

The readership of the American Fastener Journal and its electronic magazines, the Aerospace Fastener eZine and U.S. Fastener Report, is quite diverse. American Fastener Journal publications reach across all levels of personnel in the fastener industry. Readers include owners, presidents, middle- and upper-management, support staff and warehouse employees.

With a strong emphasis on technical articles about fasteners, fastening applications, purchasing, and sales and marketing, there is a significant focus on the educational and informative articles as the backbone of the publication for more than 30 years.

John reported on Software Advice that, "Dollar for dollar, Fishbowl Inventory is the best purchase you can make when deciding on an inventory program. We purchased this in 2009, and it has been the most effective and bulletproof program we run. Fishbowl works seamlessly with QuickBooks Pro, and has never created an issue for us. We needed the ability to track lot numbers and also manufacture some parts. We have been able to do this without issues and continue to grow our business. We have gone from 1,200 parts to over 5,000 without experiencing any issues."

John also reported that the support has been excellent, and when the company asked for a change on a report or form, Fishbowl Inventory responded quickly. He noted that Fishbowl Inventory is an easy program for new employees to learn.

Fishbowl Inventory (http://fishbowlinventory.com) is the most requested inventory management solution for seamless integration with QuickBooks, and is a popular standalone solution for organizations or enterprises looking to track assets. For users of QuickBooks it provides the same advanced features, flexibility, and mobile management control larger organizations require.

QuickBooks owns an estimated seventy-eight (78%) percent of the accounting software market. Analysts estimate there are more than 7.1 million copies of QuickBooks in use. By conservative estimates, more than forty (40%) percent of these organizations directly need or could strongly benefit from inventory control.

Fishbowl Inventory has been the most frequently requested inventory solution for QuickBooks users for more than a decade. As small-to-medium companies grow and face increasing competition, the flexible cost-effective combination of QuickBooks and Fishbowl grows alongside SMBs regardless of the industry sector. These smaller firms need the same kind of inventory management large organizations enjoy at a more affordable price.

Fishbowl offers custom reports, custom shopping cart integrations, custom data integration, and database-related application linking and eliminates data entry errors. With simple features of barcode scanning, companies easily receive inventory into systems or records as it comes off the carrier vehicle, make adjustments to quantities being received, and easily enter tracking information in real time. Fishbowl software significantly increases accuracy and worker productivity.

It's the easiest system I have ever worked on, and I've seen quite a few. Having never set up an inventory software program by myself, I was pretty nervous but Fishbowl is so self-explanatory, it was a breeze. A few days of reading up and I was ready to go. I did not attend any training classes, even to this date. The online help and help built into the system is very easy to go through and learn from.

First Place Supply Recommends QuickBooks and Fishbowl Inventory

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/28/2013 -- The First Place Supply review was written after a year's use, after processing thousands of orders, adding 700 vendors, and thousands of products entered. "As far as we can tell, the only thing we'll need are more user licenses as our company continues to grow with the help of Fishbowl Inventory," John shared.

John from First Place Supply noted on Software Advice that Fishbowl Inventory Software has changed their business, noting, "We're an Industrial Supply Distributor with multiple warehouses and multiple sales offices. Connecting sales to the warehouse, sales to accounting, and accounting to the warehouse is a monumental task when you're trying to do everything in Quickbooks. Fishbowl has by far been the best money we have invested in our business this year. It was difficult to implement at first, because the staff did not want to change the way they did things and the system did not match what we were doing previously. Fishbowl's way has turned out to be better. Our employees wouldn't know what to do now if they didn't have access to Fishbowl."

Fishbowl Inventory Helps U.S. Manufacturers Compete with China

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/21/2013 -- Manufacturing has been one of the few bright spots of the U.S. economy for the past several years. This is a result, in large part, of manufacturers' ingenuity in cutting costs and finding more efficient ways to do business. As long as they continue to think creatively, Fishbowl Inventory is committed to helping U.S. manufacturers prevail.

While China, Mexico and other countries have the advantage of cheaper labor, U.S. manufacturers are coming up with creative ways to lower costs and deliver products. China's advantages of a huge workforce and cheap currency are no match for superior processes. While many foreign manufacturers rely on outdated manufacturing methods and inefficient equipment, U.S. manufacturers are developing new ways to streamline production by building more efficient machines to do work that used to require several older machines according to Fishbowl Inventory.

Customers are looking for the best price and the best value. Some Chinese imports have been plagued by issues of poor quality and even negative health effects. By maintaining high standards for their products, U.S. companies may not always offer the best price, but they are much more likely to earn a reputation for having longer-lasting and more desirable products.

As manufacturers grow and expand their product line, increasingly complex processes must be coordinated.

Small Gun Manufacturers and Dealers Meet ATF Reporting Requirements with Fishbowl Inventory

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/19/2013 -- Fishbowl Inventory has developed the top selling inventory control/manufacturing software designed specifically for the QuickBooks market. Some of the key features of interest to firearm-related businesses include serial/lot number tracking, assembly and sub-assembly tracking, vendor tracking and custom fields. Specifically every firearms manufacturer and dealer in the country must be a ATF Log Book. The ATF: Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms mandate this report and Fishbowl Inventory provides the needed data.

There are multiple stories about guns in the news. According to Business Insider magazine, there are 129,817 gun stores in the U.S., (which, incidentally, is 14,869 more gun stores than grocery stores). Most of these businesses are small to mid-sized and are therefore using QuickBooks for accounting (QuickBooks covers over 87 percent of the small-to-mid sized business accounting software market in the U.S.).

Fields to track include manufacturer and/or Importer, Model #, Serial #, Type, Caliber, Date in, Vendor, FFL #, Date Out, and Purchaser's Name. Every time a firearm is sold, the seller needs to enter all of the above information into the log book (traditionally done by hand). Additionally, the ATF requires all firearms manufacturers to have the ABILITY to track all serialized component parts back to the original manufacturer in case that component was used in the commission of a crime. That is exactly the information Fishbowl tracks automatically. The ATF Log Book report in Fishbowl simply compiles the required fields into the report format the ATF wants.

CMMG, a firearms manufacturer is a satisfied Fishbowl customer. They are a small-arms manufacturer based in Fayette, MO that was founded as a hobby "offering high quality AR parts and accessories through websites and online auctions," but quickly developed into a full-time business. CMMG now offers a wide array of rifles and component parts that are sold directly on their website. Side Note: For those new to firearms, "AR" does NOT stand for "Assault Rifle" but stands for "ArmaLite Rifle" named by the first company to develop the AR-15 platform that later sold the design to Colt. The term AR-15 really describes the firearm platform, similar to a car manufacturer to use the same frame and suspension for truck and van products, where the rifles' receivers are a standard (fit and compatibility) across multiple manufactures in the industry.

Like many small manufacturers, CMMG began tracking inventory manually through paper, pencil, and spreadsheets; as they grew, that process became too difficult, time-consuming and prone to errors. They were also using QuickBooks to track their sales and accounting, and their website was run using the shopping cart Volusion to process online orders. As each order was received on the website, Volusion printed the sales order as a hard copy, which would then be used to hand-enter a sales order into QuickBooks and to pick, pack, and ship the order. The problem was that it was easy to lose a piece of paper (and therefore the record of that sale), and the lack of a direct integration with QuickBooks meant there was a lot of double data entry.

As a manufacturing and inventory control software solution, designed specifically for QuickBooks users, Fishbowl was chosen by CMMG to manage all inventory control and manufacturing needs, as well as to process all the orders from their website. When a sales order arrives within Fishbowl, all the inventory levels are automatically adjusted based on what was sold. Pick, Pack and Ship information is then instantly available to pickers in the warehouse via wireless barcoding devices that tell them all the items that need to be picked for each order. If the item is currently out of stock and needs to be manufactured, or reordered from a supplier, Fishbowl automatically provides the appropriate manufacturing and/or purchase orders to supply the needed products.

Kitchen and Bath Company Praises Fishbowl Inventory

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/18/2013 -- Griffiths Plumbing and Bath sells more than 3,600 parts and products. Because they had spent so many years managing inventory on paper and in Excel spreadsheets, it took four months to get all the inventory data organized into a CSV file to import into Fishbowl Inventory. Now that the initial effort was made, the company is seeing positive results.

For 80 years, a family-owned hardware store, Griffiths Plumbing Kitchen and Bath, has done all of its inventory management by hand. But soon after the British Columbia-based company was placed into the hands of its fourth-generation steward, 28-year-old Damon Griffiths, they decided to change the way they did business.

One of the most important things Griffiths is now able to track is the cost of equipment and parts his plumbers use when they go out and work directly with customers. With Fishbowl Inventory he knows whether or not the company is charging enough to cover the cost of all the supplies and labor at on-site jobs. As the company tracks costs and optimizes inventory levels, it is able to grow faster than ever before while keeping loyal customers happy.

Fishbowl Inventory Works for Snack Food Manufacturing

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/15/2013 -- A Salt Lake City dried-fruit, nut, and candy manufacturer called Nutty Guys discovered the value of Fishbowl Inventory. The multimillion-dollar company produces and distributes hundreds of tons of snack foods each month. Several years ago they had grown so swiftly that they were facing challenges in keeping track of their inventory.

Nutty Guys decided they needed to automate their inventory management by using Fishbowl Inventory software, barcode scanners, lot numbers, and other tools. Soon they were able to organize all of their products and have orders sailing smoothly to customers.

To keep costs down, Nutty Guys prints black-and-white product labels, avoids flashy but pointless tactics, and minimizes the number of idle products in their warehouse. Also by measuring all the costs of labor, ingredients, and equipment that go into finished products, they can set appropriate prices for their customers. Fishbowl Inventory tracking has allowed the firm to monitor products from manufacture to sale, and orders from receipt to delivery. They find places to increase efficiency by analyzing each step of the production process, and they see which products they should stock up on by tracking sales.

Fishbowl Inventory Highly Endorsed by Industrial Supply Distributor First Place Supply

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/13/2013 -- John from First Place Supply noted on Software Advice that Fishbowl Inventory Software has changed their business, noting, "We're an Industrial Supply Distributor with multiple warehouses and multiple sales offices. Connecting sales to the warehouse, sales to accounting, and accounting to the warehouse is a monumental task when you're trying to do everything in Quickbooks. Fishbowl has by far been the best money we have invested in our business this year. It was difficult to implement at first, because the staff did not want to change the way they did things and the system did not match what we were doing previously. Fishbowl's way has turned out to be better. Our employees wouldn't know what to do now if they didn't have access to Fishbowl."

The First Place Supply review was written after a year's use, after processing thousands of orders, adding 700 vendors, and thousands of products entered. "As far as we can tell, the only thing we'll need are more user licenses as our company continues to grow with the help of Fishbowl Inventory," John shared.

Since going live in 2007, we have been able to keep a better handle on our inventory and information…it just gets better and better! It's the easiest system I have ever worked on, and I've seen quite a few. Having never set up an inventory software program by myself, I was pretty nervous but Fishbowl is so self-explanatory, it was a breeze. A few days of reading up and I was ready to go. I did not attend any training classes, even to this date. The online help and help built into the system is very easy to go through and learn from.

I was trained over the telephone for three days, about two hours a day. The person who trained me was so very helpful. I was sure that I would not be able to learn how to use the inventory system over the phone - but to my surprise, they made it so easy for me to understand. I sailed right though the training."

Paula noted that the support staff at Fishbowl is very knowledgeable and so helpful adding, "Fishbowl Inventory is very user-friendly as well. Trust me - I am not a computer person - so if I can learn how to use Fishbowl, then anyone can. "

Fishbowl Inventory Helps Small Gun Manufacturers and Dealers Meet ATF Reporting Requirements

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2013 -- There are multiple stories about guns in the news. According to Business Insider magazine, there are 129,817 gun stores in the U.S., (which, incidentally, is 14,869 more gun stores than grocery stores). Most of these businesses are small to mid-sized and are therefore using QuickBooks for accounting (QuickBooks covers over 87 percent of the small-to-mid sized business accounting software market in the U.S.).

Fishbowl Inventory has developed the top selling inventory control/manufacturing software designed specifically for the QuickBooks market. Some of the key features of interest to firearm-related businesses include serial/lot number tracking, assembly and sub-assembly tracking, vendor tracking and custom fields. Specifically every firearms manufacturer and dealer in the country must be a ATF Log Book. The ATF: Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms mandate this report and Fishbowl Inventory provides the needed data.

Fields to track include manufacturer and/or Importer, Model #, Serial #, Type, Caliber, Date in, Vendor, FFL #, Date Out, and Purchaser's Name. Every time a firearm is sold, the seller needs to enter all of the above information into the log book (traditionally done by hand). Additionally, the ATF requires all firearms manufacturers to have the ABILITY to track all serialized component parts back to the original manufacturer in case that component was used in the commission of a crime. That is exactly the information Fishbowl tracks automatically. The ATF Log Book report in Fishbowl simply compiles the required fields into the report format the ATF wants.

CMMG, a firearms manufacturer is a satisfied Fishbowl customer. They are a small-arms manufacturer based in Fayette, MO that was founded as a hobby "offering high quality AR parts and accessories through websites and online auctions," but quickly developed into a full-time business. CMMG now offers a wide array of rifles and component parts that are sold directly on their website. Side Note: For those new to firearms, "AR" does NOT stand for "Assault Rifle" but stands for "ArmaLite Rifle" named by the first company to develop the AR-15 platform that later sold the design to Colt. The term AR-15 really describes the firearm platform, similar to a car manufacturer to use the same frame and suspension for truck and van products, where the rifles' receivers are a standard (fit and compatibility) across multiple manufactures in the industry.

Like many small manufacturers, CMMG began tracking inventory manually through paper, pencil, and spreadsheets; as they grew, that process became too difficult, time-consuming and prone to errors. They were also using QuickBooks to track their sales and accounting, and their website was run using the shopping cart Volusion to process online orders. As each order was received on the website, Volusion printed the sales order as a hard copy, which would then be used to hand-enter a sales order into QuickBooks and to pick, pack, and ship the order. The problem was that it was easy to lose a piece of paper (and therefore the record of that sale), and the lack of a direct integration with QuickBooks meant there was a lot of double data entry.

As a manufacturing and inventory control software solution, designed specifically for QuickBooks users, Fishbowl was chosen by CMMG to manage all inventory control and manufacturing needs, as well as to process all the orders from their website. When a sales order arrives within Fishbowl, all the inventory levels are automatically adjusted based on what was sold. Pick, Pack and Ship information is then instantly available to pickers in the warehouse via wireless barcoding devices that tell them all the items that need to be picked for each order. If the item is currently out of stock and needs to be manufactured, or reordered from a supplier, Fishbowl automatically provides the appropriate manufacturing and/or purchase orders to supply the needed products.

Fishbowl Inventory Helps Small Food Manufacturers with FSMA Traceability Requirements

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/04/2013 -- Like other small food manufacturing companies required to comply with the new Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), lot traceability and ingredient traceability is critical. Nutty Guys decided they needed to automate their inventory management by using Fishbowl Inventory software, barcode scanners, lot numbers, and other tools. Soon they were able to organize all of their products and have orders sailing smoothly to customers.

Nutty Guys is a Salt Lake City dried-fruit, nut, and candy manufacturer. They discovered the value of Fishbowl Inventory. The multimillion-dollar company produces and distributes hundreds of tons of snack foods each month. Several years ago they had grown so swiftly that they were facing challenges in keeping track of their inventory.

To keep costs down, Nutty Guys prints black-and-white product labels, avoids flashy but pointless tactics, and minimizes the number of idle products in their warehouse. Also by measuring all the costs of labor, ingredients, and equipment that go into finished products, they can set appropriate prices for their customers. Fishbowl Inventory tracking has allowed the firm to monitor products from manufacture to sale, and orders from receipt to delivery. They find places to increase efficiency by analyzing each step of the production process, and they see which products they should stock up on by tracking sales.

Asset Inventory Management for Small Manufacturers Defined by Fishbowl Inventory

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/31/2013 -- Assets may mean different things to different people even within the same organization. A business must clearly define what its assets are, how many of them they have, their value and where they all are at any given time if the company is to be efficient, profitable and survive in today's competitive industrial business environment.

The value of an asset depends on its intended use and the amount of money that can be earned by selling it or saved by using it wisely in a production or other process. Assets are not always physical; a company may count its intellectual property and its software systems as assets. Regardless of whether assets are physical or intellectual, asset tracking and inventory management are key components that allow organizations to manage their assets and inventory to their greatest advantage according to Fishbowl Inventory.

Asset Tracking and Inventory Management from Fishbowl Inventory benefits manufacturing organizations. The cost reduction allows inventory to be optimized, as well as, reduce shrinkage, and lower labor costs.

Small Manufacturers Need Contingency Plans with Fishbowl Inventory and QuickBooks

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/30/2013 -- Small manufacturers are working to keep the doors open and rarely prepared for an emergency. Often there is no backup plan when some vital system fails. Fishbowl Inventory suggests that it is important to prepare for disasters. It would not take a natural disaster to leave a small manufacturing business in ruins. Supply disruptions, IT problems, and other issues can unexpectedly leave devastation.

Fishbowl Inventory allows small industrial companies to evaluate how vendors doing at getting supplies in a timely manner and at a fair price. The technology allows firms to consider if there is there room for improvement. The result is that manufacturers either strengthen ties with current vendors or seek out new vendors.

Similarly, if a shipment fails to reach its destination for any reason, industrial firms need to know about it quickly so the problem can be corrected. Fishbowl Inventory allows product tracking and notes when shipped items reach certain points across their journey to their final destination. If late, immediate alerts are created.

Server hosting is another benefit of Fishbowl Inventory. Computer crashes happen from time to time. Fishbowl clients never worry about losing data at any given second due to a server-hosting solution. Fishbowl Hosted Services back up information throughout each day and house it in a secure, offsite facility.

Fishbowl Inventory (www.fishbowlinventory.com) is the most requested inventory management solution for seamless integration with QuickBooks, and is a popular standalone solution for organizations or enterprises looking to track assets. For users of QuickBooks it provides the same advanced features, flexibility, and mobile management control larger organizations require.

QuickBooks owns an estimated seventy-eight (78%) percent of the accounting software market. Analysts estimate there are more than 7.1 million copies of QuickBooks in use. By conservative estimates, more than forty (40%) percent of these organizations directly need or could strongly benefit from inventory control.

Fishbowl Inventory has been the most frequently requested inventory solution for QuickBooks users for more than a decade. As small-to-medium companies grow and face increasing competition, the flexible cost-effective combination of QuickBooks and Fishbowl grows alongside SMBs regardless of the industry sector. These smaller firms need the same kind of inventory management large organizations enjoy at a more affordable price.

Manufacturers benefit in many ways by using Fishbowl's Manufacturing Option. Fishbowl provides several competitive advantages, including configurable bills of materials, instructions, and stages; tracks tens of thousands of parts and integrates with QuickBooks.

As manufacturers grow and expand their product line, increasingly complex processes must be coordinated. Fishbowl simplifies processes by automatically generating manufacture orders, work orders, bills of materials and other essential documents when customer orders arrive. Each bill of materials can include detailed instructions, multiple stages of production, and other features to make every manufacturing job more efficient.

Small Manufacturers Find Fishbowl Inventory with QuickBooks Best Solution

Orem, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/29/2013 -- Manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler recently contributed a feature article titled, "Inventory Automation Solutions Impact the Bottom-Line," published in the current issue of Automation and Controls Today.

According to Cutler, "Standard Industrial Classification Codes differentiate between categories of industry. The range of products represented is vast from fasteners to chemical manufacturing to automation and manufacturing. Many of these manufacturers are small, employing under 100 people. The products they manufacturer, range from molecular imaging equipment to guns and firearms. Few software vendors will turn away a potential client. Fishbowl Inventory will only sell when it is the correct solution. Millions of small and enjoy at a more affordable price."

What stops smaller organizations experiencing growth, is the false idea that they must spend significant sums of money or undergo the learning curve to move to a bigger accounting and inventory platform. Inventory management can have a profound effect on the bottom-line of many companies, including automation industries and other traditional companies that have yet to consider the possibilities of inventory software.
