We are thrilled to introduce Boxwise Inwards, a revolutionary feature meticulously crafted to elevate warehouse efficiency and streamline operational processes. This cutting-edge addition is set to elevate warehouse efficiency, making your GRN process faster and smoother than ever before. Get ready for a whole new level of control as you can now GRN boxes sent by suppliers or returns by customers at the box level. Let's dive into the key features that will transform the way you manage your warehouse:
Key Characteristics
ASN and Box Code Management
Capture Box Codes to ASN and Box Codes to item mappings flexibly via CSV upload or direct integration with vendors.
Support various scenarios, including ASN with/without Box Codes, Gate Entry with/without Box Codes, and multiple mapping options.
External Box Code Support
Choose between using existing box codes or generating new box IDs during gate entry creation.
Enhance flexibility in the GRN process with support for external box codes via CSV upload or direct scanning.
Inward Staging Area Management
Easily put away boxes in the Inward Staging Area and pick them based on ASN/Gate entry ID, box purpose, and inspection status.
Benefit from the system suggesting empty locations or locations with the same ASN for efficient putaway and retrieval.
Thresholds and Inspection Management
Admin users can define minimum sample inspection percentages and pass thresholds at the supplier/customer level.
We have the flexibility to establish inspection percentages that determine the mandatory number of boxes requiring inspection and the percentage of items needing Quality Control (QC) pass for gate entry approval.
These values for customers and suppliers can be tailored, considering factors like trust levels or past shipment accuracy. This practical and trust-oriented approach allows for the customization of sampling percentages, enhancing efficiency in the box-wise inwards process without undermining the accuracy of inwards.
Enjoy the ease of bulk CSV upload for seamless management of inspections.
Sample QC Workflow
Implement a dynamic sampling QC process, empowering operators to perform cycle counts and QC on a sample of boxes per supplier.
Ensure the quality of received items with options for QC pass, QC fail, or Extra items.
Boxwise Inwards Process Flow Using Increff Serial Code Application(InSC)
Utilize InSC application(another Increff product) to print Item Codes and create box packing lists at the manufacturing end. Suppliers can map the box codes to items while packing the items for dispatch. Refer to this to explore the InSC Tool.
Seamlessly receive mapping of ASN to Box IDs from Increff WMS, simplifying the entire process.
Experience automated gate entry creation, ensuring swift verification and approval through box ID scanning.
Enhance organization with the seamless movement of items to the Inward Staging Area after GRN.
Boxwise Inwards Process Flow when suppliers manage the printing of Item Codes and box packing at supplier end
The ASN has to be created either using CIMS UI or Create ASN API.
Supplier to keep the mapping of items and boxes that will be received in the warehouse. The ASN Box and Item Code mapping has to be created in WMS either using the API call or manually using Omni UI.
Post that the gate entry can be done.
Enhance organization with the seamless movement of items to the Inward Staging Area after GRN.
