Exporters with their own factories are commonly called "integrated industry-trade" — they handle both the trade front-end (customers / inquiries / contracts / documents) and the factory back-end (production / quality / warehousing). The years-long pain of two disconnected systems is fully closed on one SBK platform: customer → order → production → export → tax rebate, all connected end-to-end.
Common issues across five core stages from the customer end to the factory end, and how SBK handles them
Pain: the salesperson promises a 60-day delivery, then the factory says "can't fit it in." SBK: signing the contract generates a production task pushed to MES, and the factory sees the trade order's priority
Pain: the same product for domestic and export sales needs two BOMs. SBK: attach multiple BOM dimensions (export / domestic) to one product, auto-selected by order type
Pain: the customer wants PSI / FRI inspection reports, and the factory's quality data must be reorganized. SBK: MES QC data auto-grouped into the export inspection report
Pain: finance takes a week at month-end to piece together factory cost and landed cost. SBK: 6-dimension cost grouping to the order, with landed / ex-works / FOB / CIF shown side by side
Pain: hard to match the three documents — VAT invoice + customs declaration + FX verification. SBK: auto-link the three documents along the order line and auto-generate the monthly rebate-filing base sheet
Pain: book profit looks like 20%, but after FX, demurrage and various fees, true profit is only 10%. SBK: a per-order true-profit dashboard, including FX and rebate
Contract SO-0418 → MO-0188 (1000 units)
The moment a trade contract is signed, the factory immediately knows "1,000 units of product X due in 60 days" — MES auto-schedules per BOM, arranges processes by routing, and pushes shortage lists to procurement, so the salesperson doesn't chase by phone. Production progress syncs back to the trade order, so the salesperson can proactively adjust delivery with the customer.
MES QC data flows into export report
Before the customer's third-party SGS inspection, the factory first runs its own PSI (pre-shipment inspection) — this data already lives in the MES quality module, but the export side has to reorganize it for the export inspection report. SBK auto-groups MES QC results into the export inspection report, so the report the customer sees carries traceable production batches.
End-to-end cost aggregation (CNY)
True profit for integrated industry-trade companies is the most complex — covering the factory's "material procurement + process cost + depreciation" plus the trade side's "customs fees + ocean freight + insurance + commission," then adding FX gains/losses and subtracting the rebate. SBK groups all costs by order so true profit is clear at a glance, giving the boss grounds to approve new orders.
Signing the contract auto-schedules production, the salesperson updates the customer on production progress weekly, and a deadline is never missed.
A European customer reports 50 faulty lights; tracing by batch number to the production process data + QC records pinpoints the quality issue in 5 minutes.
Export requires ROHS-certified components, domestic doesn't. Two BOMs attached to one product, auto-selected by order type.
Each month the boss reviews per-order true profit including FX and rebate, identifying which customers deserve more investment and which to drop.
