Gluon ERP Import Module: Complete Control Over Your Import Operations
In today’s global trade environment, importing goods is no longer just about buying and receiving stock. It involves managing fluctuating exchange rates, customs regulations, port charges, documentation, and financial risk all at the same time.
For many businesses in Pakistan and the MENA region, import operations are still handled through spreadsheets, emails, and manual follow-ups. This leads to delays, hidden costs, and poor visibility.
The Gluon ERP Import Module brings everything together in one centralized system, giving you full control over your import process from purchase order to warehouse entry.
Why Import Management Needs a Smarter System
Importing today comes with real challenges:
- Rising freight and port costs
- Complex customs and GD compliance
- Delays due to missing or incorrect documents
- Difficulty tracking landed cost and profit margins
- Poor visibility over Letters of Credit (LCs)
Managing these processes manually increases the risk of demurrage, financial losses, and compliance issues. Gluon ERP’s Import Module is built to eliminate these risks.
Key Features of the Gluon ERP Import Module
End-to-End Import Tracking
Track every import shipment from order placement to final warehouse receipt. Monitor shipment status, expected arrival dates, customs clearance, and delivery all in real time.
Accurate Landed Cost Calculation
Know your true cost before you sell. Gluon ERP automatically calculates and allocates:
- Freight and insurance
- Customs duties and taxes
- Clearing agent and port charges
- Inland transportation and handling costs
This gives you an exact cost per unit, protecting your margins and improving pricing decisions.
Letter of Credit (LC) Management
Manage all LCs in one place with complete visibility into:
- LC opening and expiry dates
- Bank margins and charges
- Amendments and retirement status
Never miss deadlines or exceed limits again.
Complete Import Documentation Control
Store and link all import documents directly with each shipment, including:
- Bills of Lading (BL)
- Commercial Invoices
- Goods Declarations (GD)
- Packing Lists
- Certificates of Origin
This reduces delays, improves coordination with clearing agents, and speeds up port clearance.
Multi-Currency & Exchange Rate Handling
Handle foreign currencies with ease. Gluon ERP records exchange rates at the time of the proforma invoice and adjusts them at payment, giving you clear visibility into currency gains or losses.
Inventory Updates After Clearance
Stock is only added to inventory after customs clearance and inspection. This prevents “ghost stock” and ensures your sales and warehouse teams work with accurate data.
