Revolutionizing Order-to-Cash for a Global Chocolate Leader with Hathority's Seamless Integration

• PFS (Warehouse Management System): This system manages shipping goods to customers, tracking orders, deliveries, returns, and refunds, and handles inventory within the warehouse.
• NetSuite ERP: Serving as the central repository for all data, NetSuite facilitates enterprise resource planning. It integrates with Shopify and PFS for order processing, inventory adjustments, and financial transactions.
