Fluid Sealing Product Management with TrulinX
Fluid sealing distributors require a sophisticated inventory management system. That may include the ability to determine at a moment’s notice which vendor provided you with a product, and which customer took delivery of a specific lot, heat, or batch. With the TrulinX Lot Tracking system, you can make time-consuming tasks as simple as the click of a button.
TrulinX integrates seamlessly into your business – from receiving to shipping, and includes the following features that will help simplify your operations:
Intuitive Order Entry
Full capacity for entering, storing, inquiring, and reporting of lot numbered items. Individual items can be selectively designated as lotted.
Issue and Receipt Logic
TrulinX gives fluid sealing distributors the opportunity to lower the cost of inventory by using a variety of Lot Assignment Methods at the System or Item Control level. Some of the parameter options include:
- FIFO – First In, First Out, picks from the oldest inventory first to prevent the inventory from getting stale and unsaleable
- FIFO Complete – Searches for the oldest lot/heat/batch numbers several ways to find the best fit.
- Lot Complete – Searches from the newest lot to the oldest.
- Manual – Ability to enter Lot and Quantity used manually during shipment.
- Required Lot Assignment – Ability to force users to assign lot numbers to exact quantity received, shipped or adjusted
Flexible Bin Location Management
Lot / Heat / Batch Number records can be manually created, adjusted, and/or deleted.
Heat/Batch Inquiry
TrulinX gives fluid sealing distributors the right tools to improve customer service, save time, and increase efficiency when dealing with heat or batch inquiries. Distributors can automatically view the various lots from Quote/Order Entry while on the phone with a customer to ensure quality service without pausing to look up data.
Inventory can be filtered based on whether item is Lot, Heat, or Batch Tracked. Users can easily find out which numbers were received for an item or were shipped on a specific pick ticket.
Fluid Sealing Product Visibility
Give your warehouse staff the ability to track lot, heat, and batch items based on PO Receipt lines so they can access vital information in real time. TrulinX gives you the ability to allocate a receipt line to one or more lots or do partial allocations and assign the rest later. Lot assignment is manual, so you can develop a numbering scheme to align with your day-to-day operations.
Bin Location Processing
Streamline your warehouse operations with the ability to generate a Lot Pick Ticket Report and Item Put-Away Report that will tell you in what Bin Location(s) the Lot(s) are located.
Traceability
Protect your assets by having complete visibility into the activity of each lot. Quickly find out where a lot came from, where it is located in your warehouse and where it will be shipped.
