The challenge

A tree nursery offers its regular customers a storage service for plants so that they can survive the cold winter temperatures unscathed. For this purpose, an automatic process is to determine the incoming orders, the creation of offers, the storage and retrieval dates, and a forecast for the capacity utilization.

Among other things, the following features should also be integrated:
  • Selection of different plant types
  • Remarks column (e.g. to document the condition of the plant)
  • Calculation of the required footprint as well as the total area
  • Recording of the total delivery quantity per day
  • Offer or close delivery days according to order situation

The solution

On the tree nurseries' homepage, customers can log in with their account and order plant storage. Finally, the first possible pick-up and delivery date is automatically calculated and the customer chooses their preferred dates, which automatically creates an order summary. Customers receive both the order confirmation and the invoice to their stored mail accounts. For overview, customers also see their order history as well as the current order.

The nursery has its own area for managing orders. There they can find forecasts of capacity utilization, a delivery schedule with all relevant details. This simplifies planning and relieves the employees.
