Application Focus
- Allow for the packing of items for shipment into cartons, master cartons or pallets.
- Integrate into Epicor® Advanced Material Management (AMM) and Material queue for Pick-to-Pack and Pick-and-Pack capability.
- Integrate with Insite® / Agile ship® for full carton shipping capabilities.
Overview
The AMM and handheld module has some picking and shipping capabilities in Epicor. However, there was still a need for the ability to pick single orders or different modes of batch picking as well as zone picking capabilities and to pack what is picked into cartons and then to be able to ship the cartons rather than just individual inventory items. Advanced Shipping enables the use of cartons as shippable entities.
