👀 Highlights

We've introduced various exciting features and enhancements that will revolutionize your operations. Here's a glimpse of what's in store for you:

Key Features

Provision to reject SKU qty in an order from Increff OMS

We've added the provision to reject SKU quantities in an order from the Increff OMS panel when there is no inventory. This rejection will trigger a hopping process, reallocating the order to another store or location.

USP : Video capturing for forward orders

Introducing video capture for forward order processing in USP. Now, you can record and store videos that can be easily searched and downloaded, streamlining the process of sharing with marketplaces for SPF claims.

This update transforms the management and processing of forward packaging, aligning with the evolving demands and requirements of major marketplaces like Amazon, Myntra, Ajio, and Nykaa.

We have introduced a new feature that enables operators to mark items as QC fail during B2B packing, enhancing quality control at the packing stage.

Applying validation rules on External Serial Codes and ItemCodes

We have introduced new validation rules for External Serial Codes and ItemCodes in WMS and SFS to enhance data accuracy.

These rules ensure that the codes follow specific patterns, such as matching parts of barcodes or SKU data fields, and adhere to predefined formats.

This enhancement reduces errors during item creation and returns, improving overall operational efficiency.

Probable Order Split and Estimate Delivery Date for Webshops

This seamless integration improves transparency and boosts the overall shopping experience.

Product Usability 

UI to retrigger Postings from OMS

This new feature allows OMS users to directly retrigger or mark as ignored any asynchronous postings being sent via Increff OMS. Such as Sales posting events, or return posting events etc.

Users can select the relay status (Retrigger or Ignore), type of postings like Order completion or Return Completion, etc and upload a CSV of message IDs.

This will eliminate the need for creating support tickets for this activity and thus save a lot of time for clients

All actions are audited for security and compliance.

Enhancements in Bulk Kitting Process

Streamline your warehouse operations with enhanced bulk picking. Our latest update gives you the power to:

  • Release bulk picklists for non-kit and kit SKUs independently, whether for single or multiple SKU lines.

  • Pick non-kit and kit SKUs separately to optimize your picking processes.

Included a prompt that advises removing the boxes from the shipment that become empty after items are removed.

🔧 Technology Architecture 

Enable order creation with channel order code as case-sensitive

We have updated our system to handle case-sensitive channel order codes. This ensures that each shipment code is uniquely identified, preventing duplicate order codes in our Warehouse Management System (WMS).

Example

Amazon sends case-sensitive shipment codes, but our WMS database treated them as the same due to case insensitivity. For example, "uxFg8jk9" and "uXfg8jk9" were considered identical, leading to errors.

Add audits on downloading Invoices

We have introduced backend audit logging for invoice downloads.

This enhancement tracks and logs the download action, including the specific Invoice ID, providing improved transparency and accountability. This ensures secure access and monitoring of invoice downloads for compliance and security purposes

Precision Control: Add Inventory to Designated Pools in Returns

We are excited to introduce the Return Pool Allocation feature, allowing clients to configure strategies for automatic allocation of returned inventory. This enables seamless allocation of returned stock to either the common pool or the original pool from which the stock was dispatched, enhancing flexibility and efficiency in inventory management.

Key Benefits:

  • Efficiency: Automates inventory allocation, reducing manual intervention.

  • Accuracy: Ensures precise stock placement for improved reconciliation.

  • Flexibility: Configurable strategies at client, channel, and location levels.

Product Usability 

SFS: Enhancements in hopping scenarios due to Maximum Acceptance Time of stores

The recent enhancements around the order hopping due to the Maximum Acceptance Time(MAT) of stores in the Store Fulfillment System (SFS) are designed to provide more control and flexibility, ensuring smoother and more efficient order fulfillment processes. These updates allow for configurable options to disable auto-hopping at the channel level and ensure orders remain allocated to the current location if inventory is unavailable after MAT for the order is breached.

OMS: Increff USP Packing Screen Enhancements

We're excited to announce new enhancements to the Increff USP packing screen These enhancements provide greater flexibility and control over the packing process, making it faster and more efficient.

Highlights

  • Skip AWB Scan: You can now configure USP to bypass the AWB scan confirmation step after packing confirmation. AWB scan confirmation can be enabled or disabled in the Configurations screen under Packing Configurations.

  • Optional SKU Scan: The option to skip individual SKU scans during packing by Order ID is now available. Scan the Order ID and confirm packing which is a major time-saver for orders with multiple items. Activate the "Skip SKU scan" option in Packing Configurations to streamline packing by Order ID.

  • Enhanced Item Identification: Attributes like Color, Size, and MRP are now displayed on the packing screen for each SKU. This ensures the packing of correct items, reducing errors and returns.

Multi-channel selection in pigeonhole picking

Increff WMS now enables operators to select multiple channels during pigeonhole picking, offering options for either channel-wise or all-channel picking.

This improvement allows Ready to Pick orders from different channels to be picked from pigeonholes in the same iteration, streamlining the picking workflow and optimizing operational efficiency.

This feature is especially beneficial for clients utilizing a single packing station for multiple channels, as it enhances workflow efficiency and reduces overall handling time.

Enhanced Transporter Name Matching for Return Orders

We've revamped the return order processing functionality in the Increff WMS to solve the common issue of transporter name mismatches. Users can now easily verify and select the correct transporter name from a dropdown synced directly with marketplace data, ensuring smoother and more accurate return entries. If discrepancies occur, users have the flexibility to manually input transporter names, which are then saved for future reference. This enhancement streamlines operations and reduces errors, making the return order process more efficient than ever.
