Administration

Set the platform up before anyone works in it: the warehouses stock sits in, the people and companies who touch it, and the settings that govern both.

Warehouses and locations

Do this first. Inventory, receiving, and shipping all live inside a warehouse, so nothing else works until one exists.

Guide What it covers
Warehouse management Create a warehouse and set its address, timezone, and operating hours
Location management Set up the storage locations inside a warehouse
Staging areas Configure staging zones, set how many License Plate Numbers (LPNs) and orders each can hold, and see how full each one is

People and companies

Guide What it covers
Users Create accounts for your staff, switch off access when someone leaves, and limit a portal user to particular customers
Roles and permissions Decide who can do what, down to a single action
Customers Customer accounts, their addresses and contacts, credit limits, and billing setup
Suppliers The vendors your inbound shipments come from
Product submissions Approve or reject the new products customers send you
Activity history See who changed what, and when

System settings

Guide What it covers
System settings Connect your accounting system, word your invoice emails, and set the compliance limits enforced on every load
QuickBooks integration Connect QuickBooks Desktop so invoices and customers stay in step
