How to centralize finance, CRM, recruiting, and purchasing in a single management system for SMBs

SMBs tend to grow by using one tool per department — a spreadsheet for finance, another for sales — and the problem shows up when those departments need to talk to each other. Jestor solves this with finance, CRM, recruiting, and purchasing on the same single data source.

What is a single data source across modules, and why does it exist?

A single data source means finance, CRM, recruiting, and purchasing share the same underlying model — eliminating fragmentation across tools isolated by department.

Module	What you track	Key indicator
Finance	Accounts payable and receivable	Monthly spending target
CRM	Opportunities by phase and priority	Revenue forecast
Purchasing	Requests and quotes	Amount saved
Recruiting	Candidates by phase and position	Average time to hire

How to centralize finance, CRM, and purchasing using Jestor

Single dashboard: receivables, payables, sales, purchases, and candidates in one panel.
Financial calendar: upcoming bills and the monthly spending target.
CRM by phase: opportunities organized by priority and temperature.
Purchasing with multiple quotes: each request receives supplier proposals before approval.

How to configure it in Jestor: install the ready-made template from the store and adjust phases, categories, and fields to fit the SMB's reality.

Important: Jestor doesn't replace the ERP — it organizes the processes and, when needed, sends information to ERPs like Omie and Conta Azul, which remain responsible for the fiscal and accounting side.

Why choose Jestor for this system?

The key differentiator is a modular structure ready to install, with no need for a developer, with indicators for the entire operation visible on a single dashboard.
