Case Study: Happy Socks achieves more efficient budgeting and reporting with Solver

A company’s journey toward more efficient budgeting and reporting

Happy Socks, a rapidly growing Swedish clothing company specializing in socks and underwear, faced mounting budgeting complexity as more employees became responsible for planning. They relied on scattered Excel sheets that had to be manually consolidated and cross-checked, creating time-consuming work and a high risk of human error.

Happy Socks implemented Solver’s budgeting, forecasting and reporting solution with a live link to Microsoft Dynamics NAV, including input templates, a live report writer, pre-built templates and a personnel-cost model — the project, testing and training took seven days. The new system removed conflicting spreadsheets and automated consolidation and real-time updates, freeing finance staff for forecasting and analysis and making budgeting and reporting faster and more reliable.
