A NEXT GENERATION SHIPPING SOLUTION FOR SAP
Leveraging years of industry expertise and proven software solutions, ProcessWeaver offers a single-source solution that allows users to rate, ship, and track small parcel and LTL/TL shipments without ever leaving SAP System. Our solution takes the complexity out of multi-carrier shipping and provides a comprehensive, cost-effective, and ready-to-use application. Why consider integrating with just any 3rd-party shipping system, when you can leverage your investment in SAP with a solution which resides within your SAP system and is certified by carriers?
ENTERPRISE CENTRALIZED SHIPPING (ECS)
ProcessWeaver provides complementary solutions to SAP's ERP offering - the ability to rate, pack, ship, and track packages from within your SAP system. ECS ensures that you consistently meet carrier and customer requirements for rating, routing, label and document printing, and EDI, without relying on an external 3rd-party solution. ECS ensures shipping in SAP is faster, more accurate, less problematic, and results in lower transportation spending and enhanced operational efficiencies.
BRINGING TOGETHER TECHNOLOGY AND PROCESS IMPROVEMENT
ECS is written in ABAP/4 and installs in your existing SAP system landscape. Since ECS is deployed as an ABAP/4 stack, its rating, shipping, and tracking functionality can be accessed from any SAP module (i.e., ERP, CRM, WM, TM, etc.).
MULTI-CARRIER COMPLIANCE
Powered by the most advanced carrier compliance technology, ECS ensures that you consistently meet carrier requirements for rating, routing, labeling, and international documents. ECS supports certified shipping for DHL, FedEx, TNT Express, UPS, USPS, and more. In addition to small parcel carriers, ECS supports the rating and shipping for virtually any LTL/TL carrier. It also complements SAP's TM by providing small package shipping execution, and SAP's GTS module by filing export data via AESDirect.
PACKING HANDLING UNITS
ECS helps you to streamline packing and integrate it with your shipping process. Only ECS lets you pack and ship, print a carrier label for each Handling Unit, a packing list, and any other transportation documents you need from one SAP user interface. By integrating processes, you reduce the time it takes to pack and ship Deliveries/Shipments.
UPDATING SAP DELIVERIES, SHIPMENTS, AND SALES ORDERS
For each shipment, ECS automatically updates the Delivery, Shipment, or Sales Order with freight amount, tracking number, and any other information you might require to help facilitate other SAP processes. In fact, ECS can automatically trigger the Post Goods Issue (PGI) as part of the shipping process. ECS does not stop there; as your shipments move through the supply chain and are delivered, ECS automatically updates SAP with the Proof of Delivery (POD) time and date, as well as the signature information. Real-time updating means real-time supply chain visibility.
ENHANCED SUPPLY CHAIN VISIBILITY
Real-time updating of Deliveries/Shipments/Sales Orders with shipping and tracking information means real-time supply chain visibility. Enterprise users can easily access POD and tracking information, for example, by viewing Deliveries in VL03N. From ECS' Tracking Tab, users can access all tracking numbers associated with a specific Delivery, as well as delivery dates and signature information. Tracking numbers can be linked to Handling Units (if applicable) and contain hyperlinks that take users to carrier web sites for more detailed tracking information; all from within the SAP GUI. Enhanced realtime supply chain visibility made easy in SAP.
