We are giving a sneak peak at the features
available in the newest version of ASN Complete. ASN Complete, is our
premier Advance Ship Notice (ASN) Software, is the most comprehensive
ASN Software on the market today. In
the current version of ASN Complete, the shipping cycle begins when
order information is received electronically and a shipment record is
created. Once the cycle is in motion, labels can be printed and
reports can be generated for Packing Lists, Manifests and VICS BOLs.
The last step of the cycle is posting the shipment and printing final
reports.
We have re-designed ASN Complete v7.0 to be “Shipment
Oriented”, allowing companies to “pre-build” shipments and generate
Packing Lists, Manifests and VICS BOL’s at the beginning of the
Shipping cycle. This allows for better transportation planning and
order staging prior to trailer loading. In addition to the
comprehensive features available in the previous version of ASN
Complete, version 7.0 offers processing of partial orders, batch orders
and the ability to edit VICS BOL’s to ensure 100% accuracy of items on
the truck. These enhancements, along with ASN Complete's continued
support of VICS BOLs and the overall shipping process, give users the
best package for today's needs.
About Advance Ship Notices (ASN’s)
Advance
Ship Notice (ASN or 856) is an EDI formatted electronic packing list
and is mandated by many companies today. An ASN refers to the
information used in creating Bills of Lading and usually include such
information as date of freight availability, equipment number, routing,
identification, origin, and destination, and other necessary
information sent by plant or carrier prior to arrival. Companies often
require that bar-coded GS1-128 (formerly UCC-128) shipping container
labels are affixed to incoming shipments. Prepared in association with
a valid ASN transmission, GS1-128 labels connect the physical units of
the shipment to the electronic information.
