When companies are using a Warehouse Management Solution with Acumatica or MYOB Advanced one of the requirements could be to produce advanced shipping notice (ASN). The customer must have full flexibility of selecting the VAN (Value Added Network) and EDI provider they prefer to work with. This is part of the multi-cloud world. Businesses who embrace the multi-cloud world are setup for success. It is really important for the customer when looking at best of breed solutions to see if that solution has an API. Our API for our WMS allows us to connect with different applications anywhere and use oAuth 2.0 for security. An ERP system truly is the system of record for a business. This is why that the WMS must integrate with the ERP and send back the information of SSCC label, which items were packed into which box, weight of the cartons or pallet. In today's digital economy all records must be in the ERP system. You can't have a WMS not sending vital information to the ERP. One of the recurring themes we have when implementing our Warehouse Management Solution is about insights into what is happening in the warehouse. This is where we have Intelligent Cloud Insights. We use Power BI for real time Business Intelligence reporting and give customers the flexibility with our Open API to complete reporting using our WMS database and the ERP system. This ensures our customers have all the information what is happening in the warehouse or warehouses in real time without limitations. Please refer to the picture below where our Intelligent WMS is updating Acumatica with the items into the package. This allows customers to know which item have been packed into which box. Then from here our WMS is updating the Custom Reference Field Number 1. From here the end point is created for the ASN.   Media contact:

Using Analytics to boost Productivity16/1/2020 Aberdeen recommends that you look closely at real-time functionality in the analytics of you use - leaders are 31% more likely to have real-time visibility into the status of all processes and data. Here is the blog on how wholesalers and distributors can use analytics to boost productivity.
A key advantage of our WMS is using Power BI or other BI software for the real-time analytics and also our WMS has a real-time audit. This ensures all reporting and auditing is in real time. There is no waiting for syncs or for an 'app' to send the latest data. Everything is real-time including the analytics. Another advantage of using a real-time WMS is you can see the current status of every line of orders being picked, receipting, put-away or transferred at that time. For example in the picking audit of our WMS you are looking at real time data of lines being picked. Therefore you are seeing real-time quantities being picked, which bin location the goods are being taking from, which lot (batch) numbers or serial numbers are being picked. Contact us at sales@thericgroup.com for further information. Industry 4.07/1/2020 With Industry 4.0 placing an increasing amount of pressure on businesses to do more with less, many are looking to new technologies to improve quality, productivity and workforce efficiency. Augmented reality (AR) is among them.
Here is the latest blog from Zebra on Head-Mounted Display making augmented reality accessible to all mobile workers. Remembering the man who barcoded the world18/12/2019 BARCODING THE WORLD
In our daily lives, most of us hardly give the barcode a second thought. We may interact with it when we’re shopping and even then, it is merely the “bunch of lines and spaces” that helps us process the transaction and buy an item. Most think that the purpose of this black and white mark is, well, black and white. More information on the Zebra blog here. A successful WMS is a helpful one10/12/2019 Primepac is a leading manufacturer & distributor of industrial suppliers & packaging products. They currently have warehouses in Auckland and Christchurch and use MYOB EXO as their ERP system. To maximise operational effectiveness at Primepac the business implemented The RIC Group’s Warehouse Management Solution with Multi-bin for MYOB EXO at both warehouse locations. Samuel Walton, Finance Manager at Primepac states one of the reasons for selecting The RIC Group’s WMS is it integrates seamlessly into MYOB EXO and has ongoing product enhancements. When asked about return on investment, Samuel from Primepac said “Since implementation we’re seeing a reduction in costs associated with missing / misplaced stock in the warehouse now that we have the feature of bin control. We have also been using The RIC Group’s TMS solution which has provided us with route planning and proof of delivery.” The WMS and TMS solution is browser based which has allowed Primepac to deploy Samsung tablets mounted to the trolleys for the picking and putaway process. It allows the user to clearly see the products due to the bigger real estate on the screen. The WMS has ensured the reduction in travel time and touches which has helped reduce operational costs.

Postmodern ERP is defined as the situation where companies abandon the traditional practice of using single, monolithic ERP platforms for several unique tasks and instead adopt a collection of individual standalone programs. In the past, ERP solutions were built comprehensively to offer business users a wide range of services under one collective umbrella. There is no doubt that cloud-based software and integration opportunity have promoted the change from "all-in-one" legacy systems to picking and choosing solutions where your business only pays for and implements the tools it needs. Flexibility is key and this is a big reason why enterprises are gravitating towards a postmodern ERP. With the availability of subscription pricing it does mean with with postmodern ERP software companies get exactly what they need instead of paying and reserving space for unnecessary functions. The RIC Group's WMS is a best of breed WMS and is loosely coupled with the ERP. The pricing is a subscription model and customers select which features they would like implemented. A key reason we have always used a loosely coupled approach as an ISV (Independent software vendor) is that our WMS and TMS solution offers real scalability and versatility. Putting a box solution in place, can always lead to growing pains down the road. Email our team at sales@thericgroup.com for further information for our Warehouse Management Solution. |
