For third-party logistics warehouses
Warehouse software that proposes the next step and lets a person approve it.
Receiving, putaway, picking, packing, returns and client billing in one place. At each step the software proposes what to do next, such as where to put stock or which charges to bill, and a manager approves it or sends it back. Each of your clients gets its own portal for stock, orders and invoices.

What runs itself
-
Receiving checks itself against the notice
Inbound goods are received against the advance shipping notice. Differences are recorded, and a putaway location is proposed for a manager to approve.
Live -
Billing comes from the floor
Handling and storage become billable events, invoices are built from each client's own rate card, and proposed charges wait for approval before they are billed.
Live -
Exceptions go to a person
A short pick or a disputed invoice becomes a proposal or a task. Only an owner, admin or manager can approve it, and every decision is recorded.
