Boost Efficiency & Cut Costs with Our Latest Enhancements!

We’re excited to introduce powerful new enhancements designed to streamline your workflow, save time, and reduce operational costs. Check out some of the latest updates that will help you work smarter:

Coming Soon: Some Exciting New Feature Updates!

Order & Adjustment Processing – Multi-Select Browses for Conveyance IDs

What’s New?

No more manually selecting each Conveyance! Now, when processing Orders and Adjustments, you can quickly select multiple Conveyances in just a few clicks.

How It Works:

  1. Use the new Multi-Select Browse to choose the Conveyances you need.
  2. The system will validate:
    • That you have access to all related stock.
    • That the selected Conveyances match the required Order/Adjustment quantity.

The Result: Faster order processing and greater efficiency!

HighViews Command – Modify Multiple Order Headers

What’s New?
Updating multiple orders just got easier! You can now modify Order Header data for multiple orders at once within WMS Outbounds WIP and e-Commerce Orders HighViews.

How It Works:

  1. Select multiple orders and click the new “Modify Order Header” command.
  2. Enter a single value for:
    • Carrier
    • Order Type
    • Freight Account Number

The system updates all selected orders instantly with your chosen details.

The Result: A simple, time-saving way to ensure consistency across multiple orders.

Counting – Summary Tickets for Faster Stock Counts

What’s New?

Counting large numbers of pallets in bulk locations is now more efficient than ever! With Summary Counting, you can define counts based on product, lot, and location—reducing the need for individual pallet handling.

How It Works:

  1. Instead of counting each pallet individually, simply count and record:
    • The number of pallets with a standard quantity.
    • Specific product and lot details.
    • The pallets’ location.
  2.  If a Summary Count doesn’t match Book Inventory, the system will:
    • Generate “B” Tickets for further verification.
    • Enforce traditional (non-summary) counting for accuracy.

The Result: Faster, cost-effective counting with minimal stock handling & Improved inventory accuracy with built-in variance checks.
