Qwik-Scan (SZP) module supports customers that have only one stocking / picking zone management requirements and offers the popular features listed below:
- Qwik-Ship – provides a paperless method to create electronic Pick Tickets to pick and ship orders faster and more accurately – resulting in reduced labor costs and increased profits. Warehouse personnel equipped with wireless hand-held RF barcode scanners display orders and scan items to maximize picking and pricing productivity and accuracy.
- Qwik-Receive – provides a paperless method to process, Receive and Put-Away products from incoming Vendor Shipments and RMA Customer Returns. Warehouse personnel equipped with wireless hand-held RF barcode scanners receive incoming Purchase Orders and process customer returns on a “real-time” basis, thus eliminating accuracy and timing issues in updating inventories available for sale to customers.
- Qwik-Count – provides a paperless method to conduct quick Physical Inventory and Cycle Counts of warehouse inventory. Warehouse personnel equipped with wireless-hand-held RF code scanners can quickly and accurately conduct physical inventory counts to improve inventory accuracy, financial accountability and inventory management analysis of a Distributor’s inventory investment.
- Qwik-Label – provides an easy method to create custom printed barcode labels for products, shelf labels and shipping packages with specialized Zebra thermal printers and DMS label software.
Qwik-Scan PLUS+ Warehouse Management Software – our advanced RF “Wireless Warehouse Barcoding” module for Picking, Receiving, Physical Counting, Customer Returns, and Cross-Docking that supports Multi-Zone/Bin inventory management for larger Distribution Centers that require the following features:
- Multiple Pick Processes:
- Primary Bin pick with view of overstock bins for re-stocking purposes (i.e. Lowes & Home Depot models where overstock is stored above the primary pick area)
- Multi-Zone/Bin pick for eaches, cases, pallets, etc. based off of Order Entry quantities and product location within the warehouse.
- Inter-leaven Pick Process – “paper-less picking” allows orders to go directly to the scan gun by picker and zone without printing a ticket. The process also alerts the picker to a priority order and allows them to “park” the in-process order so they can pick the priority order and then return to the “parked” order to finish it.
- Receiving Process accommodates two (2) options:
- Allows direct receipt to stock at the primary pick location
- Creates a “Put-away” document to aid the warehouse staff to move the just-received products to the primary or alternate bin locations as needed for replenishment.
- Physical Inventory Process provides:
- Normal physical inventory process with “blind” count option
- Spot counting of items for quick on-demand counts
- Cycle counting of product by multiple selection options
- Customer Returns Process accommodates two (2) options:
- Allows direct receipt to stock at the primary pick location
- Creates a “Put-away” document to aid the warehouse staff to move the customer-returned products to the primary or alternate bin locations as needed for replenishment.
- Individual Picker & Receiving Productivity metrics for Orders, Line Items, and Pieces are automatically provided in the DX Command-Center Dashboard for Employee Productivity
