Shipping/Receiving

Shipping/Receiving provides a central application within Vantage to monitor incoming and outgoing items, whether it is shipments against an order, sending subcontract parts to a vendor, receiving raw material from a purchase order to a job or into inventory, or filling an order from stock. All activity relating to shipments and receipts can be performed and tracked through this module.

On-line transaction processing promotes efficiency and ease of use, while on-line editing promotes accuracy. With Shipping/ Receiving, a consistent interface processes all shipments and receipts in an efficient, accurate, cost-effective and profitable manner.
