Product Usability 

Enhanced Visibility of Previously Returned Items for Detailed QC

A new feature has been introduced to improve the visibility of previously returned items in WMS screens.

  • It aims to reduce the number of returns by providing detailed information at critical stages like packing and returns, highlighting items that have been previously returned along with return reasons.

  • This allows operators to conduct more thorough QC checks, preventing potentially returnable items from being shipped again.

  • Additionally, during return order processing, these items can be easily identified for thorough quality control.

SFS: Auto-populate package SKU dimensions using OMS box SKU master

  • In our SFS platform, package SKU dimensions can now auto-populate when scanning package SKUs during B2C packing given the OMS box SKU master is defined.

  • This eliminates manual entry, ensuring accurate order fulfillment.

  • Additionally, users can easily add new package SKUs and capture remarks if Package SKU is not present in the list, enhancing operational flexibility and data granularity.

Experience smoother workflows and elevated productivity with this latest update!
