Case Study: Grande Cosmetics achieves streamlined inventory control and major time savings with Acctivate

Enhancing Natural Beauty through “Cosmetics with Benefits”

Grande Cosmetics, an NYC-based distributor of beauty products, faced rapid growth that made manual inventory tracking time-consuming, error-prone, and impractical. To solve this, Grande selected Acctivate and its Acctivate Inventory Management Software—integrated with QuickBooks and their ecommerce platforms—to centralize inventory, warehouse and order management.

Acctivate implemented inventory and warehouse management, ecommerce order syncs (Volusion, Magento), shipping workstation integrations (UPS WorldShip, Stamps.com), EDI connectivity and lot control, giving Grande live inventory visibility and automated workflows. The result: major time savings (the warehouse manager went from spending half his day doing math to rarely needing to), elimination of manual adjustments and blind spots, expanded Acctivate user adoption from 9 to 16, fewer out-of-stock errors, and improved traceability for recalls.
