Inventory is usually a company’s major
investment and controlling it can be one of the most effective means of cost
savings. The SCI Inventory Module, an integral part of the SCI Distribution
Management System, gives you complete control over your inventory. It is a
multi-company, multi-warehouse system which provides all the current and
historical information you need to efficiently manage your inventory.
The parts master is an easy to use source of all information relating to
specific part. By selecting from a menu of options, you can view purchase order
history, pricing, costing, demand, inventory status, sales history and much
more. The inventory status option will display current on hand, in pick, on
order, in transit, reserved, allocated, backordered and contracts for each
stocking warehouse. You may at that point view the detail for the summary
quantity displayed. Of course, you can find a part from any word or part of a
word in its description. In addition the system provides for the tracking from
start to finish of internally built assemblies and inter-warehouse transfers.
The SCI Inventory
module can be set up to allocate inventory to customer orders based on
priorities defined by the user or on an automatic first-come, first-serve basis.
In addition, you can define a full set of parameters which allow for the
efficient control of inventory storage as well as how and where orders are
filled.
The system keeps track of sales demand, minimum and maximum levels and vendor
lead times as well as a variety of other factors. When coupled with our
Purchasing Module, it is capable of generating recommended buy reports which
allow you to keep your inventory levels at a minimum while at the same time
maximizes your ability to fill customer orders.
In addition, the system can track inventory by lot number, serial number or
reels, allows for annual and cycle inventory counts, and includes a full set of
quantity and valuation reports.
With SCI’s Inventory Control Module, you can designate physical and logical
warehouse transfers.
There is a large library of reports to choose from and SCI will custom tailor a
listings menu based on your needs.
There is also a kitting menu for distributors who build kits or want raw
material inventory to be relieved at the time of shipment.
As with SCI's other systems, full support is provided for laser printers as well
as a wide variety of dot-matrix printers. |
