Pack & Ship Extension

Description

Tasklet Factory has developed an Extension to enhance the pick, packing and shipping workflows in the warehouse when Mobile WMS and mobile devices are used.

“Pack & Ship” is an alternative to the existing Shipment and Tote Shipping in Mobile WMS and includes improvements to workflows such as:

• Staging of goods between picking and packing processes
• Repacking picked goods to new packages and pallets
• Printing labels for package/pallet contents
• Fully customizable integration to 3rd party Shipping Apps including booking and printing shipping documents directly from the mobile device.

The extension can be used without integration to 3rd party Shipping Apps and will still provide significant benefits in terms of staging, repacking, and printing package content label reports.

The main goal however, is to allow our customers to easily connect the Mobile WMS solution to their 3rd party shipping solutions. This will enable customers to create and book transports/consignments, and print the shipping labels directly from the mobile devices.

• Integration to 3rd party Shipping Apps can be developed by partners by creating “Connectors” that will bridge the gap between “Pack & Ship” and the 3rd party Shipping App
• We provide a framework that will streamline this process and significantly reduce the amount of code needed to support a new shipping solution

Connectors provided by Tasklet:

• "Connector App" for Idyn ShipIT 365
• "Connector App" for LogTrade Connector

Extension dependencies

Currently Pack & Ship is a separate extension. In the future, it will be included as part of Mobile WMS.
