Description
VMI, which stands for "vendor managed inventory," is a system designed to streamline inventory management. When a customer's stock levels dip below a certain threshold, PathGuide’s Advanced VMI automatically generates a replenishment order. This order is sent to the vendor electronically, where it is usually confirmed, selected, packaged, and dispatched back to the customer. Furthermore, Advanced VMI can initiate automatic advanced shipping notifications, providing customers with crucial information to prepare for the arrival of their shipments. PathGuide’s Advanced VMI operates independently for distributors' clients or as an integrated feature of a warehouse management system (WMS). This innovation ensures that orders are placed with unprecedented speed, simplicity, and efficiency, particularly benefiting customers who frequently purchase the same items. Overall, the system enhances supply chain operations by minimizing downtime and maintaining optimal inventory levels.
Description
Streamline the process of uploading products, managing inventory, sending orders, and tracking shipments with automation. Instantly import comprehensive product information from suppliers into your eCommerce platform, including images and detailed descriptions. If multiple suppliers offer the same item, Spark Shipping links one product to various suppliers and directs orders to the optimal source. This ensures that orders are sent to the supplier with the product available at the most competitive price. Spark Shipping will handle supplier feeds and keep your inventory updated automatically, allowing for efficient inventory management that aligns with all your vendors. Orders can be dispatched to vendors, distributors, suppliers, or fulfillment centers as needed. When orders are placed in your store, Spark Shipping intelligently assigns them to the appropriate destination, accommodating various formats such as email, EDI, FTP, CSV, XML, among others, to meet your vendor’s requirements. This comprehensive automation solution significantly reduces manual effort and enhances operational efficiency.
