Shipping
The customer's final measure of a vendor’s performance is based on the accurate, on-time shipment of goods. Radley’s SyteLine DC Shipping takes the guesswork out of ensuring that your shipments are complete and correct. SyteLine has several methods by which to ship, and SyteLine DC supports all of them and provides unique features that can streamline this vital operation. SyteLine DC allows shipping automation to follow the process that is necessary to your business. Orders can be picked via FIFO/FEFO, by lot, or by location and picks can be either pick-list printed and/or downloaded directly to the picking terminal.
Once a truck’s load is verified, and the shipment is completed, SyteLine DC can automatically generate any number of additional transactions using those same verification scans. Automatically BOL and shipping paperwork can be generated, a transfer to the yard can occur to await carrier, even an ASN release, all without performing another scan. SyteLine DC shipping transactions also integrate with Loftware to generate customer specific shipping labels. The shipping label is generated automatically from shipping functions, eliminating manual label data entry.
Receiving
The expedient and accurate tracking of receipts is an important control component of a streamlined manufacturing operation. As vendor shipments are received at the dock, the receiving operator scans the bar-coded materials to capture the purchase order number, part numbers, lot/serial numbers and quantities received. If a particular vendor does not apply labels to their materials, receiving labels may be generated at the dock from the SyteLine database. Or, using Loftware's Internet Printing capability, your vendor can print your receiving labels at their facility and apply them to your orders. All they need is an Internet connection and a local printer to generate labels in seconds.
The materials can then be assigned a put-away location by the user, the SyteLine item default location, or issued directly to the floor. Labels may include standard stock status codes, such as inspection, direct issue, stock and discrepancy. If an incoming part is back-ordered, the operator can immediately issue to a Work Order upon receipt. SyteLine Purchase Order Receipts are updated, as is SyteLine Inventory.
