How can Fishbowl Mobile improve your inventory accuracy to near perfection? You simply place a pre-printed tag number on your incoming part(s). These tags can be printed directly from the Fishbowl Wireless Inventory Control Software. Tag numbers are like license plates as they remain with a particular part no matter where it's moved to. When it comes time to pick the inventory to be shipped to a customer, simply scan that tag again to get it out the door.
There are several ways to make the receiving process foolproof as well, substantially decreasing errors. For example, when you receive inventory into your warehouse, if you scan on a bar code, it doesn't matter if you scan on the UPC code or the bar code with the vendor's number. Fishbowl Mobile Inventory Management automatically associates those numbers to your part number and brings it into inventory. Remember, with Fishbowl Mobile you can receive parts with serial numbers, lot numbers, revision levels and expiration dates. You can also automatically associate POs to the parts being received to make paying bills a snap.
You may also choose to automatically receive all items on a PO, or to receive partial orders.
How is worker productivity significantly enhanced using Fishbowl Mobile? It eliminates human error. Your handheld device directs you through the warehouse in a systematic order. Instead of having to print out a pick ticket, the program walks you through the warehouse and tells you where to pick and the quantity to be picked for your orders. With Fishbowl Mobile, you can perform cluster picks, allowing you to pick up to 10 orders at a time as you walk through the warehouse. You can even perform a single batch pick that allows you to pick all orders at once that only have a single line from the sales order.
Other benefits of Fishbowl Mobile Warehouse include the abilities to:
1. Do inventory adjustments to help with cycle counting
2. Do inventory moves for when you transfer inventory to other locations in your warehouse or onto a truck
3. Look up where your parts are located within your warehouse
Fishbowl Mobile Warehouse runs exclusively on Microsoft Mobile 5 & 6 or Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003.
