Scanco Warehouse for Sage 100, for example, offers distributors an excellent WMS package. It integrates easily with Sage and provides great real-time information, easy picking and packing assistance, improved shipping times and more. Best of all, it’s easy to implement and use.

Making Automation Easy

Newer products like WMS for Sage 100 utilize software that downloads as an app on a smartphone, tablet, or other handheld device. The optical camera inside the device becomes the scanner itself, so you don’t need to add complex, expensive, or cumbersome hardware to your warehouse management system. Instead, once you’re set up and ready to go, just open the app, swipe, and you’ve scanned your first item.

For distribution centers, e-commerce warehouses, and warehouses with variable seasonal demand, having software that’s easy to train people to use is essential. If you hire groups of seasonal workers, for example, to deal with holiday shipping for an e-commerce business, you need to get them into the warehouse as soon as possible to get orders out the door. You don’t have time to spend on lengthy training sessions. Software like Scanco for Sage 100 drastically shortens the learning curve for temporary and seasonal employees. If you can take a picture with your smartphone, you can use it to scan inventory into the system.
