Attention: Accellos WMS Partners & Customers using Accellos One Warehouse 62.01.0001 and newer

On Friday, September 17th, 2010, from 8PM to 11PM MDT, we will be upgrading critical components of the Accellos Datacenter. During this approximately three-hour period, all hosted services will be unavailable, including:
WMS hosted solutions
3PL hosted solutions
Real Dispatch
Prophesy Mobile Comm, VisiFreight, and webMiler
Accellos internal network
The scheduled maintenance will include an update of perimeter connectivity and security devices to ensure stability and continue to enhance security and performance. Other updates may be required and will be announced if anticipated.
The Accellos One Oracle Reports integration lets users easily design their own work-flows and reports, rather than requiring customization services to create or change a work-flow process to activate a triggering mechanism. Users can now simply leverage the integration of Oracle reports and the 3PL Secure framework to create their own work-flows, and triggering mechanisms.
Oracle Reports is a best of breed reporting tool, generating reports in any popular format for web and paper, sending them via multiple channels, while integrating to multiple back end data sources. Reports created using Oracle Reports seamlessly integrate with your 3PL environment, giving you the tools you need to provide instant access to all the information you need.
Sick of doing the same tasks over and over again? So are we. Accellos One Collect for GP now enables you to configure the software to further speed up your processing for users who perform the same tasks over and over again. New options have been added to re-enter a transaction automatically after F1/Finish instead of having to exit to the menu each time. You can also choose to suppress the confirmations screen that occurs at the end of each transaction.

Accellos One Warehouse (A1W) tracks every hand-held activity for productivity reports, and includes an Employee Statistics report that shows user productivity Picking, Receiving, Material Handling, and Cycle
Counting.
In our next release, Accellos One Warehouse will let you define labor Standards that are used to forecast labor requirements for each “pivot” in Web Dispatch.
The Picking and Receiving Standards will be used to forecast the labor requirements for each “pivot” in Web Dispatch. A new row on the sales order and purchase order grids will let you estimate how much labor will be required for each group of orders based on the current pivot. Not only will dispatchers be able to see how many orders, lines, and units are associated with a pivot, they’ll be able to see how much labor will be required to complete the orders based on your own defined labor standards.
We have also added a report to compare “actual” calculated
metrics versus “standard” metrics to help you refine your definitions.

facility that adds up to a lot of time that you could be spending on something much more productive.
Accellos One Schedule provides a set of tools to help you cost effectively move from a manual appointment system to an automated one. Its web-centric design allows you to quickly and easily book an appointment based around customizable business rules for each facility and door, then
share the schedule with both internal users and external partners and customers.

It’s always such a struggle to manage employees and what they’re working
on. Complexities like scheduled breaks, lunches, and expedited orders make a manager’s role very difficult to gain picking efficiencies, manage expedited orders, and optimize the labor force. These concerns are now easily manageable with the Enhance Labor and Task Management functionality in Accellos One 3PL.
Gain efficiencies by interleaving Pick to Put and Put to Pick operations based the proximity.
Assign expedited orders to your most experienced staff using the new Operator Assignment function, even if they don’t start for another 15 minutes.
Have the system automatically optimize your labor force by setting labor standards parameters like:
· Customers
· Carriers
· consignee / shippers
· locations
· zones
· incidents
· breaks, etc.
The incident tracking is even integrated with billing, allowing to generate charges back to customers if necessary. Find out how to leverage the new labor and task management features in Accellos One 3PL today:
