Case Study: M & R International achieves automated conversions and streamlined accounting with aACE Software

A Customized Software Solution for Wholesale Distribution

M & R International, a 76-year-old wholesale paper distributor, faced complex unit-of-measure challenges (purchased in 100‑lb units, priced in metric tons, sold by sheets/cartons), heavy manual workarounds, month‑end Excel accounting for in‑transit inventory, and strict Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and international shipping/reporting requirements. After evaluating options, M & R selected aACE Software and its aACE Enterprise Edition to solve these unique operational and compliance problems.

aACE Software delivered a customized aACE Enterprise Edition implementation that automates conversions and quantity calculations, auto-generates purchase orders, tracks inventory and ownership in transit, and produces FSC‑compliant and bilingual documents. The rollout cut conversion processing from about an hour to five minutes, eliminated much of the month‑end Excel work, reduced errors, and simplified FSC audits and international logistics, delivering clear efficiency and accuracy gains.
