Implement effective warehouse processes starting at the time of receipt with E21’s flexible receiving and putaway options.
E21’s warehouse receiving software supports material receipt recording using standard keyboard entry and RF and barcode scanning technology.
Leveraging E21’s powerful ERP configuration manager, organizations can choose to adopt dock-to-stock or straight-to-stock receipt methodologies. Moreover, automated rules can be established for products such that they are placed on quality hold automatically during receipt, with the appropriate QC personnel notified immediately.
With E21’s lot traceability software and serialization capabilities, the system will ensure that applicable lot and serialized data is captured during receiving.
As a fully integrated, web-based ERP system, E21 ties the receiving process to procurement and EDI processes. Should multiple purchase orders be consolidated into a single container, E21 provides fast, efficient processes to receive an entire container in a single transaction.
Using E21’s built-in EDI software, supplier ASNs can be received directly into the system with quantities pre-populated for receiving personnel.
At the time of receipt, E21’s built-in warehouse management system can direct users to put inventory away in a specific location based on velocity groups and whether or not primary putaway locations are already at capacity. The putaway operation can be performed with a variety of RF and barcode scanning devices.
As part of the putaway process, product labels can be applied when the supplier has not already included such labeling. Should pallet tags need to be generated, a license plate can be printed at the time of putaway for more efficient processing in subsequent warehouse transactions. The system even supports maintaining supplier barcode formats, allowing supplier barcodes to be scanned during receiving.
E21’s inventory receiving software is directly tied to sales and customer service processes. During inventory receiving, the system can automatically allocate the inventory to open sales orders based on configurable allocation rules. This feature eliminates the need for back-and-forth emails and phone calls between the warehouse and customer service departments.
