Distribution Software

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management software is designed to enhance productivity, improve overall warehouse efficiency, and provide real-time integration to the S2K Enterprise Software

 

This distribution software has integrated EDI features to provide automatic UCC-128 label printing and electronic advance ship notices. The features of VAI’s warehouse management software include:

  • True random bin
  • Lot and serial number tracking for receiving
  • Pallet assembly
  • Movement
  • Picking and order verification

These warehouse management software features enable accurate and efficient tracking of goods throughout your facilities, optimizing your entire operation.

 

Receiving and Pallet Creation Organization

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management software supports receiving by purchase order or container and manual or RF posting of the receipt. Upon receipt, the user can note the lots and serial numbers received. All items are received into the location's default loading dock staging bin. Using the RF pallet creation module, the system automatically assigns a pallet number and prints a pallet license plate for easy tracking of item / pallet movement.

 

Perfecting Product Movement

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management software contains a product movement module. This module automatically creates move tickets for received items and for bin replenishment based on picking lane requirements and bulk stock merges. In addition, there is an RF move ticket entry module that scans the "from" location, the item or pallet being moved, and the "to" location. Upon accepting the move, the system immediately transfers the quantity to the newly assigned bin. Item history keeps track of all movement for each product.

 

Optimizing Order Management

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management distribution software contains an order manager module. This module selects orders based on a sort criteria to allow warehouse managers to view and select sales orders and warehouse transfer orders for individual or wave picking. It enables users to view selected orders and group them for picking based on weight, cubic measure, quantity, or line items. After this finite selection is complete the users are given a choice of creating consolidated or individual pick tickets. The order manager model of S2K Enterprise warehouse management software provides the ability to review picking in progress and analyze performance by area, zone and picker.

 

Picking Support

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management software supports paper based and RF picking. From the order manager, the system will generate a pick ticket that will display items based on area, zone, path and bin sequence. RF picking can then be utilized to scan the bin and the item being picked. Upon scanning, the system will verify that the correct bin, item and quantity were picked and move the item to the user's staging bin. A bar coded picking label can be automatically generated to track the tote or pallet used for picking the order.

 

Improving Order Verification

 

S2K Enterprise warehouse management software contains a valuable order verification module that allows the user to verify the items that have been picked against the customer order. Upon scanning, the system will verify that the correct item and quantity was picked.

 

In addition, the system prompts for any serial numbers or lot numbers that may be required. Box (carton) tracking is available to allow the user to designate which items are in a specific box. Upon ending each box, the system will allow the user to enter in the weight, ship-via, freight charges and the tracking number of each box.

 

Upon completion of the above steps, the system will prompt the user to backorder any short shipped items and total all the cartons and freight charges for the order. The user has the option to print a packing list or an invoice. The user can designate the orders being shipped on a specific truck and generate a bill of lading. For EDI orders, UCC-128 labels and 856 Advance Ship Notices can be generated.

 

Smoothing Warehouse Transfers

 

Warehouse transfers can be automatically or manually created for both inter-location and inter-company transfers. Suggested transfers are based on the usage, transfer lead-time and minimum requirements of each location. Use the transfer maintenance program within the warehouse management software to review suggested transfers and adjust the stock allocations for each item by location. Transfers are then released to the order manager for picking.

 

Simplifying Cycle and Physical Counting

 

VAI’s warehouse management software’s cycle and physical counting modules provide management with tools to control and gauge the accuracy of current inventory records maintained in the locator system. Automatic cycle counting takes place continuously based on the cycle class code assigned in the item master file. The cycle count process writes transaction records, prints count sheets, allows RF-based counting and produces variance reports. Full physical inventory counting is supported using wireless terminals or count sheets. Detailed inquiries display all counting activity and variances reported.
