🚀Accelerated Performance and Reliability: Harnessing SAP’s Latest “Service Layer Interface”
Seamless Integration for Enhanced Performance:
Benefit from faster and more reliable performance with our SAP Service Layer Support, which integrates seamlessly with SAP’s robust systems. This ensures smooth handling of large data volumes simultaneously, maintaining dependable operations when you need it most.
Refined Over 150 Hours of Development Investment:
During 150 development hours, we’ve painstakingly refined and optimized the SAP Service Layer to maximize transaction processing speeds. Our attention to detail and dedication have seen performance improvements that consistently surpass expectations
Remarkable Efficiency Gains:
Fundamental business operations such as goods receiving, price checks, picking and shipping have seen documented measurable advances. With an average improvement of 60%, the accompanying bar chart vividly demonstrates the enhancements made and visibly showcases the significant influence of our SAP-compatible technology.
Data-Driven Results:
The data speaks volumes! It clearly highlights our extensive advances through our expanded SAP integration, empowering your business to operate at its maximum potential.
🎯 Label with Precision: Unique Labeling for Every Pick
Enhanced Pick and Pack Accuracy:
Our split lines functionality revolutionizes your pick and pack process by allowing picks from the same item or batch combination to be split by each pick rather than merely aggregating the quantity on a single line. The split lines feature improves shipping efficiency and adapts to customer requirements while reducing errors.
Innovative Labeling Feature:
When picking from bulk containers, gain complete control over your labeling process with precise portion control. Critical to the seafood and meat industries, our new labeling feature offers precise and efficient labeling to transform this labor-intensive process.
Efficient Picking Process:
If you need to extract a specific quantity to meet a customer’s requirements, WMS+ allows you to subdivide containers into multiple packages ready for individual labeling.
Custom Package Allocation:
Tailor your package portions effortlessly. For instance, allocate 5 pounds in one package and another 5 pounds into a separate package, ensuring customized portions that meet your needs.
Improved Inventory Management:
With the ability to pick exact quantities, WMS+ now enables labeling each pick to support enhanced traceability and increased inventory management over sub-divided batches.
Error-Free Portioning:
Realizing the benefits of portion control and precise labeling helps minimize the risk of errors and improves picking, packing and shipping operational efficiencies.
✅ Accuracy You Can Trust: Tolerance Validation for Catchweight Items
Ensure rigorous quality control benchmarks with the robust WMS+ tolerance validation feature catering to catchweight items. A tolerance can be defined in SAP Business One Item Master Data and validated in WMS+ to ensure consistent item quality within your set weight tolerance.
How It Works:
- Custom Tolerance Settings: Use our catchweight controls in the SAP Business One Item Master Data to define each item’s weight tolerance. For example, a case that should weigh 35 pounds can be set with a 10% tolerance, allowing for a variance of up to 3.5 pounds above or below the target weight.
- Three Validation Options: When receiving, transferring or picking a case, WMS+ offers three options for weight validation:
- Warning: Notify the user if the weight is out of tolerance but allow the transaction to proceed.
- Block: Prevent the transaction from proceeding if the weight does not meet the specified tolerance.
- No Action: Record the weight without enforcing the tolerance.
🕵️♂️ Track Every Batch Detail: Enhanced Traceability
Empower Your Decisions with Advanced Batch Recording:
Experience the confidence that comes from complete oversight of every critical item detail. Our enhanced traceability feature captures all additional batch attributes directly within WMS+, readily accessible to support informed decisions and ensure regulatory compliance. This empowers you to act with certainty and precision at every step.
Tailored Data Management with Customizable Fields:
Take command of your data with the ability to create custom fields for batch attributes. Record every essential detail, from the temperature during transit to the country of origin and vendor specifics. Our flexible system adapts to the unique requirements of the food and beverage or manufacturing industries, enabling precise control and compliance with ease.
Improved Compliance and Decision-Making:
Ensure full traceability and easy access to all relevant batch data with our advanced system. This supports compliance with industry standards and empowers you to make informed decisions quickly based on real-time data.
📦 Eliminate Blind Spots in Your Supply Chain with Enhanced GS1 Support
Comprehensive Tracking Across the Supply Chain:
Achieve full transparency from receipt to shipping with our improved GS1 support. This feature enables you to accurately document packaging, manufacturing, and essential dates on each batch record, safeguarding product integrity and ensuring compliance at every stage.
Effortless Data Capture with Intelligent Parsing:
Gain assurance that every critical detail—from pack date to expiry date—is captured accurately and instantly with our system for catchweight clients and beyond. Our sophisticated intelligent parser allows for swift extraction of any GS1 Application Identifier (AI) from GS1-enabled barcodes, ensuring seamless and stress-free data integration. This enables you to stay ahead, confident that your operations are handled on time, every time.
Secure Your Supply Chain with Enhanced GS1 Support:
Enhance traceability and compliance with our GS1 Support, integrating quality metrics and critical dates into the WMS for seamless control over batch data. This ensures informed decision-making and robust oversight, safeguarding your inventory lifecycle against supply chain mismanagement.
⚖️ Fully Integrated Scale Solution for Simple and Accurate Item Weighing
Our upgraded catchweight management system, now integrated with scale support, automatically imports weight data directly from scales into quantity fields, delivering greater accuracy and efficiency in managing weight-based inventory. This enhancement minimizes errors and improves control over inventory levels, ensuring precise weight measurements. For catchweight clients, this means:
- Improved compliance.
- Reduced waste.
- Increased profitability through exact tracking and streamlined management.
🔄 Effortless Substitutions
Optimize your shipping process with our intuitive substitution management tools, which help avoid delays and ensure delivery accuracy.
Feature Overview: In sectors like fish processing, where product availability often fluctuates, timely substitutions are crucial. For instance, if a specific weight category of salmon is unavailable, our system allows the warehousing team to seamlessly substitute a similar item, ensuring customer orders are fulfilled without interruption.
How It Works:
- On-the-Fly Substitution: If an item is out of stock during the shipping process, authorized users can instantly add a substitute line item. This capability enables quick adjustments, keeping the shipping schedule on track without needing pre-defined alternatives in SAP Business One.
- User Authorization: Substitutions are controlled and documented, and only authorized personnel can make changes, maintaining integrity and compliance.
- Accuracy and Flexibility: This feature provides the necessary flexibility to handle inventory variations effectively. It ensures accurate deliveries and preserves customer satisfaction and trust, thereby protecting your business’s reputation and profitability.
