Overview
Sometimes customers need to track the filling or preparation of assets that they haven't prepared themselves, in-house. This could include:
- Vendor owned assets that you re-distribute out to other customers
- Your owned assets that are sent out to a vendor to be cleaned, filled with gas, or packaged together
Why do you need it
TrackAbout's Receive from Vendor (also often called Third Party Filling) is used to record the fact that assets have been received from an outside facility.
This feature is included in TrackAbout's Core Tracking module and is available for both TAMobile 6 rugged devices and Android/iOS devices.
How it works
Your Receive From Vendor action can be configured to collect any combination of the following information:
- Product Code or Asset Family
- Lot Number - This can be set up to require or ignore format validation
- Ownership
- Volume
- Purchase Order
- Expiration Date
For clients using Use States, the Receive From Vendor action can be configured to set involved assets to the Use State you pre-define. Often customers use Receive From Vendor to set assets to "Full", "Ready", or "Full By Vendor"
Customizing it for You
Your TrackAbout Support Team will work with you to configure the Receive from Vendor action to collect the data you need to track for your assets.
