Scope of the K2 implementation in Dermoesthetic
The K2 Information System ensures the day-to-day running of the entire company — from buying and selling to warehouse management and the B2C e-shops that are a direct part of the information system. Payroll management and accounting, as well as mobile terminals, are also a given. Thanks to a solution built on the K2 Information System, the company has all data stored in one database, which also serves all four e-shops operating in different countries of Europe.
Interesting facts about the implementation of the K2 Information System
- E-shops for the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany and Austria operating in a single K2 installation.
- Two different companies using K2 are connected using automated functions — both companies share registers, automatic re-billing and shipping orders.
- The warehouse is controlled using online terminals and a specialized solution implemented to speed up packaging and handing goods over to carriers.
- The K2 Information System provides information to wholesale partners using automated feeds via web services.
“Dermoeshtetic is now able to send an order via the K2 e-shop, which offers the automatic reservation of products, necessary documents, and receipt of payment without user intervention. In the warehouse, the requisition automatically goes to the queue in shipping, where the warehouse workers see it on their mobile terminals and are guided to the location where the products to be shipped are. They get the shipper’s labels in no time with the K2 IS terminal. This makes the whole sales process much faster.”
Martin Hejl, Business Development Manager K2
“One of the biggest advantages that K2 gives us over other ERP systems is that K2 allows us to manage all the activities of our two firms within one system. In K2, we do our accounting, process contracts for our wholesale clients in the Czech Republic and across Europe, place orders from suppliers, manage our e-shops and sales on Amazon, stay connected to different carriers, have an automated warehouse, and much more. The K2 system has enabled our company to streamline processes, making us able to improve our services in the ever-changing market for professional hair cosmetics. We also view the possibilities of adjusting the system to our needs and new activities very positively.”
Dermoesthetic entered the Czech market in 2009 as a distributor of professional hair cosmetic products. The company expanded its range until it reached the position it enjoys today, operating on the Czech and foreign markets and representing a variety of global brands. These include Wella Professionnel, L’Oreal Professionnel, Schwarzkopf Professional and Goldwell. Currently Dermoesthetic operates in the B2B segment as a wholesale supplier of hair cosmetics, but it also focuses on e-commerce and sales to end customers through its own e-shop of hairdressing products. They have relied on the K2 Information System since 2019.
