When you register stock information manually, errors are unavoidable. Should you, in addition, not have insight into the status of your production orders, you can not take appropriate action when necessary. This results in loss of time and extra costs. Pick-IT enables you to enter data electronically. Thanks to the integration into Exact Globe, your administration is updated automatically. This way you can streamline your logistics processes, reduce operational costs and guarantee optimal customer service.
Error-free order picking All information can be processed in the way that suits your business processes. When processing in batches, you enter the information in the hand-held terminal, from where it can be processed in Exact. This procedure requires a relatively low investment. You can also decide to process information in real-time. In this case you make use of a radiographic network, also known as radio frequency or RF. This involves the instant online processing of transactions in the Exact database through several transmitters. By means of RF techniques a real-time data communication system is set up, allowing information to become available instantly. Warehouse workers no longer have to deal with an administration that is not up-to-date. Whichever procedure suits your organisation, Exact’s Pick-IT serves many purposes.
Detailed registration of data The speed and quality of order transactions is increased by the automatic registration of item information. For each item you can register its date, ledger, amount, and also for instance order code, warehouse location, quantity and its supplier. Items that are to be delivered are displayed on the hand-held terminal in order of their warehouse location. The ideal processing route for picking orders can be determined with the ‘Route Optimisation’ functionality. Your guidelines, such as FIFO or LIFO are taken into account when determining the route, as well as product information such as weight and fragility. If desired this functionality can be added with the possibility of registering series and batch numbers. A complete registration of items allows you to meet your commitments and to deliver goods to your customers in perfect condition.
Insight into order status An online insight into the status of orders can also be gained with Pick-IT. At any given time you can trace in which production phase any item is situated. If required you can supply your customers or suppliers with this information. In a production order each different phase is completed separately, allowing you to make adjustments throughout the process. Furthermore, you have real-time insight into the types and quantities of raw materials that have been used for production. With the most up-to-date information on hand, you can follow a strict timetable and make use of your time more efficiently.
