The modifications in this section are only for the entrée.UPC add-on module.
NECS designed the entrée.UPC software to bring the power of bar codes to your food service operation. The entrée.UPC module allows distributors to automate their warehouse and shipping procedures by using bar code scanning technology.
The cost savings that entrée.UPC will bring you in the form of a reduced warehouse and office staff, speed and accuracy, will pay for itself in a very short time. NECS customers who have upgraded their warehouse operations to barcode scanning, would never think of running their warehouse any other way.
The entrée.UPC system will organize and streamline three key areas of your warehouse management:
•Receiving of Inventory
•Picking and Loading Customer Invoices
•Physical Inventory
NECS developed the 'Bar Code Definitions' utility in entrée.UPC, so that you can easily deal with the many variants' of label styles between your vendors.
The 'Bar Code Definition' can be viewed as a 'fingerprint' that describes a particular vendor's bar code label. This fingerprint tells entrée.UPC where various individual data items may be found in the string of data that is encoded on the label, such as item numbers and weight values.
When defining a 'Bar Code Definition' for your vendors, you can specify the:
•Item Number (UPC, Vendor's Item Number or your Item Number)
•Lot Number
•Serial Number
•Unit Weight
•Manufacturers ID
•Production Date
