Many beverage producers face the same challenges: complex processes, unreliable inventory data, and accounting systems that can't keep up with your growth.
The complexity of production, distribution, and compliance requires a sector-specific approach. Yet, many manufacturers still work with generic systems that were not built for this purpose.

12:30 PM – 1:00 PM: Reception
1:00 PM - 1:30 PM: Session ‘What is Aptean for Beverage ERP?’
1:30 PM – 2:30 PM: Start of break-out sessions regarding extensions and apps built on Aptean Beverage ERP
Would you like to stop treating excise duties & customs as an “obligation” to be handled afterwards, and instead integrate them seamlessly into your processes? In this session, we'll show you how Tax Management and Customs Document Management work together to reduce the compliance burden and increase operational speed—from production, receiving internal movements, storage, shipments, and returns.
Discover how to make your production more flexible and efficient with Aptean Production Scenarios and Production Scheduling in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. During this session, we'll show you how to manage multiple production scenarios for a single product—with different BOMs, routings, locations, and raw materials—and easily switch between production variations.
Additionally, you'll see how to optimally utilize your production capacity with smart planning tools, prevent overload, and efficiently schedule production orders. Gain real-time insight into your workload and make better informed planning decisions—essential in a dynamic beverage environment.
Beverage customers often order in patterns, so why would you manually do sales “over and over again”? In this breakout, you'll discover how Advanced Sales Management helps you take orders faster, sell more, and say ‘no’ less often through features like Recurring Sales, Exclusivity, Sales Alerts, Tele Sales, and Backorders—all from a fast, user-friendly order entry. From “taking an order” to “sending an order”: working with calling lists & call schedules for focus and rhythm.
Discover how to gain more control on your production floor with Aptean Shop Floor Production in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. During this session, we will show you how to easily track production orders, manage statuses, and record time entries, with clear insight into progress and performance.
Additionally, you'll see how operators work with digital instructions, scan barcodes, perform quality checks, and print labels – all directly from the shop floor. This is how you increase efficiency, accuracy, and real-time visibility in your production process, which is essential in the beverage industry.
Discounts, promotions, and empty goods: if those aren't managed tightly, margin and time will leak away. In this session, you'll get inspiration on how Sales & Purchase Conditions and Empty Goods Management work together to ensure control over deals (promotions, accruals, periodic settlement) and control over deposits/packaging (deposit charges, tracking, split deposit invoice, returns, and statements)—without slowing down the process.
