Spitz Enhances Food and Beverage Operations with AGrid

Who is S.Spitz GmbH?

S.Spitz GmbH is a prominent food and beverage manufacturer based in Austria, known for producing a diverse range of high-quality products. With a commitment to innovation and efficiency, S.Spitz GmbH relies on Salesforce to manage vital business and customer data. However, as operations expanded, managing complex data and processes became increasingly challenging, prompting the need for a more effective solution.

What Challenges did they faced?

S. Spitz GmbH uses Salesforce to manage a custom Project object, which acts as the central hub for coordinating R&D, production, and supplier activities. Each project record includes multiple associated Products and Parts that must be monitored, edited, and updated by various teams.

Before using AGrid, S. Spitz GmbH ran into key challenges that limited their efficiency:

• Scattered Product and Part Information – Without a unified grid view, users had to open each related record individually, slowing down updates and reducing visibility across projects.
• Delayed Production Inputs – Production teams needed to enter quantities and other values frequently but had to navigate through multiple records, introducing friction and delays in the process.
• Lack of Visual Cues – While they used conditional formatting (e.g., red highlights for products rejected by customers), managing these visual indicators was cumbersome without a centralized layout.
• Multiple Lists, Same Project – Several related lists were required on the same project page to serve different team functions, but Salesforce’s out-of-the-box UI lacked the flexibility to make this experience efficient or intuitive.

These inefficiencies made it harder for S. Spitz GmbH to track production, manage inventory, and respond to customer demands quickly.

How did AGrid help?

AGrid turned Salesforce into a unified workspace where teams at S. Spitz GmbH could manage their project-related data more easily:

• Unified View of Products and Parts – AGrid’s intelligent related lists allowed all relevant data—products, parts, quantities, statuses—to be viewed together on the same project page, cutting down navigation time drastically.
• Editable Grid Interface – Production and R&D teams could update key fields like part quantities or product status directly in the grid, removing the need to open each record individually.
• Multiple Grids Per Page – Using AGrid Group configurations, S. Spitz GmbH was able to display multiple related lists on the same Lightning record page. This allowed each department to access their own focused view without clutter or confusion, streamlining collaboration across teams.
• Simplified Conditional Formatting – Product status indicators such as rejection flags (e.g., red rows) could be handled visually in-grid, making it easier for teams to identify issues at a glance.

What was the impact?

Since implementing AGrid, S. Spitz GmbH has seen significant improvements in their Salesforce processes:

• Faster Workflows – Employees can now access, analyze, and update records in half the time, reducing operational delays.
• More Accurate Data – Streamlined data entry and real-time updates have helped eliminate errors, improving overall business efficiency.
• Increased Productivity – Teams spend less time managing records and more time focusing on production, supplier coordination, and customer satisfaction.
• Enhanced User Experience – With intuitive data handling, employees now navigate the Salesforce more effectively, boosting adoption across departments.

By continuing to leverage AGrid, S. Spitz GmbH ensures their Salesforce setup remains scalable, efficient, and aligned with their evolving needs.
