INTEGRATION – MES/ ERP/ FINANCIAL

THINK has extensive experience in integrating with a wide variety of ERP systems. Typical integrations occur at inbound ASN, receipt, pick creation, and outbound ASN. Interfaces have also been created for batch and stock status reporting plus also the need to keep ERP informed of warehouse management system inventory levels.

The THINK Warehouse Management System provides for many different methods of processing your customers’ requirements including:

Web Interface: Portal access can be provided to your customers, with a unique user ID and password providing security and confidentiality, they can enter their requirements directly. You retain full control over how and when these requirements are released and scheduled.

Automated spreadsheet: Your customer can simply email their requirements to you and we can process these automatically reducing the need to re-enter their requirements thus improving productivity and removing any keying errors.

EDI: Full Electronic Data Interchange allows for multiple types of customer requirements to be handled, which allows for customer forecasts, short-term planning information, and shipping requests to be effortlessly processed without the need for any manual intervention. We support many EDI standards including EDIFACT and ODETTE.

CHARGING

Getting staff to be mindful of recording what needs to be charged in a busy warehouse is notoriously difficult and can lead to regular lost revenue to your business

The THINK Warehouse Management System can provide wide-ranging charging functionality which applies pre-determined charge rates at the item, supplier, and customer levels for all key process areas of a warehouse.

So as items are received, stored, picked, and despatched, THINK actively tracks and builds a list of handling charges to ensure that you never again miss that invoice to your customer and that you can provide instant and irrefutable justification of charges.

In addition to these standard charges, at all stages throughout the process, the user can easily add ad-hoc charges directly onto the handheld scanner. Think Inventory Solutions offer full ERP System Integration so, if, for example, you need to perform a re-stack or a shrink wrap operation to an individual pallet then via a simple tap on the screen to select the charge from a list and the finance department instantly know that the charge needs to be applied.

SSCC (SERIAL SHIPPING CONTAINER CODE)

The serial shipping container code (SSCC) is an 18-digit number used to identify logistics units. In order to automate the reading process, the SSCC is often encoded in a barcode. THINK Warehouse Management System offers the ability to manage these at both receipt and despatch with full ERP System Integration.
