The Warehouse Automation module for Sage MAS 500 ERP provides you with a wireless solution to streamline order picking and cycle counts for your warehouse personnel, instantly feeding information back to your Sage MAS 500 system with proper validation. Your data collection is more timely and more accurate when your warehouse employees are able to record their activities using these handheld devices.
Warehouse Automation supports precision movement of goods from your vendors, to your customers, and between your warehouses. It simplifies many processes, including receipts, returns, and transfers through the use of handheld scanners that link to your integrated Sage MAS 500 system. When goods arrive and you complete a PO Receipt on the handheld, an option can prompt you to print bar coded labels for the new items using a desktop or portable radio frequency (RF) belt printer. Receipts of goods can either use batch posting or simulated real-time posting, depending on the needs of your business. Similar to the receipt process is the real-time ability to receive and monitor customer merchandise returns. Just match the RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) numbers and you’re on the move.
If your company has more than one warehouse, centralizing the availability of your inventory is a smart way to optimize cash flow and maximize purchasing power. Perform a simple three-step warehouse transfer process with the handheld and you can move materials to another location. Like receipts of goods, warehouse transfers can be batch posted or posted in real time.
The ability to quickly and easily record bin transfers is another key benefit of Warehouse Automation. Warehouse managers that understand the importance of efficiently separating stock into deep storage bins vs. forward-pick bins will appreciate how easy real-time posting is using handheld devices.
The LabelXpert Designer module allows you to customize the label formats that are included with the Warehouse Automation module as well as create new label formats. LabelXpert Designer allows users to customize labels for every purpose; item tags, shelf tags, bin tags, carton tags, and more. LabelXpert Designer supports both laser and thermal label printers.
You can purchase the Warehouse Automation and LabelXpert Designer modules together or separately.
