Editing delivery notes and packaging and transportation data in web forms, plus the integrated print function, facilitates the creation of all relevant documents, e.g. goods issue slips, delivery notes, and shipment orders. As the delivery is dispatched, you receive an electronic preliminary shipment notification.

Kanban, Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI)

VMI results in more streamined processes for both clients and suppliers. You just negotiate minimum and maximum stocks for every article with your suppliers in advance. Through standard interfaces, the current stock status and demands are reported into POOL4TOOL. Based on that data, suppliers are able to optimize production volumes, shipment volumes and delivery schedules by themselves.

This results in process enhancements and savings for both sides in the areas of order management, production, warehousing, picking, and transportation. Large security buffers, high stocks and fluctuation in released quantities become things of the past.

Credit Notes, Invoices, Notifications Of Settlements

To transmit credit notes in POOL4TOOL to your suppliers, the data is augmented with information about goods received and prices. The entire data is forwarded via standard interfaces into the supplier's system, where the documents are available for him. The supplier is notified about new credit notes via e-mail, and is able to print and/or them to store them in his document management system with a complete audit trail. POOL4TOOL supports digital signatures for this process.
