Partnering
with Third Party Logistics (3PL) Providers.
This
is our fastest growing segment of our services bureau. Why? because the demands
from retailers are getting too heavy to manage on a part time basis. Problems
with Chargebacks, AS2, Sublines(SLN), etc. diminishes the value that the 3PL
provide.
Lately
many 3PLs are looking for ACT’s electronic data interchange (EDI) expertise and logistics experience to make
sure the data is moved as accurately as the goods.
Pick/Pack
and Standard Pack Solutions.
There
are many advantages to partnering with a professional EDI outsourcing service.
Of course, the main benefit is that the customer receives the best of both
worlds; professional handling of their goods and professional EDI Internet handling of their
data.
Every
single partnership of this type is unique and requires customized or tailored
services from ACT. We develop interfaces to your unique requirements.
Typically,
ACT generates and sends the Sales Order file in a format downloadable into your
WMS. We also generate and email the UCC128 carton/pallet labels to be printed on
a laser or thermal printer and affixed to the container.
Scan
Verification and Document Building (optional)
Additionally, some of our clients wish to scan items into carton or cartons onto shipments. Through its EDI services, ACT provides the scan file and awaits either an Error file or a Confirmations file message to return. You provide the Carrier, PRO#, Ship date, and BOL#, and ACT sends the ASN and Invoice completing the orders lifecycle.

ACT assume the obligation of:
-
Sending
and receiving all web based EDI.

Building
and exchanging Interface files with your WMS and Logistics Systems.
