LFS.iss:
Shipping through
the cloud
LFS.iss simplifies the handling of
the entire shipping logistics process.
From routing to printing shipping
labels and consignment dispatch, the
stand-alone solution ensures the effi-
cient and economical outgoing goods
process. The key benefit of the mod-
ule is that many different CEP provid-
ers can be connected easily. Through
the provision in the Cloud of EPX
– Ehrhardt + Partner Xtended, users
have access to a secure, high-perfor-
mance system that performs updates
automatically. This represents the
shipping logistics of the future!
The TCS module included in LFS.V8
optimizes the truck fleet by taking
factors such as travel distance, time
reference and order priority into
consideration. The system is flexible
and transparent in its coordination
of transport carriers, the efficient al-
location of employees and the needs-
based deployment and distribution of
the truck fleet. This means that empty
journeys and downtimes are reduced
to a minimum. Deployment of the
TCS module guarantees a consider-
able cost saving and increased pro-
ductivity.
Forecasting trends, optimizing space
occupancies in the warehouse, and
revealing hidden potential in the
supply chain, LFS.analytics turns the
high data volumes that arise in logis-
tics into efficient and usable informa-
tion and increases planning certainty.
The solution combines all the relevant
information and creates forecasts for
future development opportunities
for supply chain optimization on the
basis of historical data, experiential
values and external source material
(such as weather data or sales fore-
casts). The results are analyzed and
evaluated in real-time. Therefore
companies know today what will be
important for tomorrow.
Is strategic human resources planning
time-consuming and expensive? Not
with the new LFS resource manage-
ment module! The module dynami-
cally visualizes all available resourc-
es in real time based on the current
order volume, saved shift schedules,
the qualifications of employees and
the number of available employees.
The function also automatically iden-
tifies the required process steps per
order, such as picking, packing and
shipping, and the applicable time to
process each step. The final outcome
is that all sub-steps are planned ac-
curately and you get a completely
transparent overview of the time for
processing and the current status of
each order.

A safe ride with TCS
The regular recording of inventory
is legally prescribed for sales people.
Specific financial reporting standards
must be complied with here. The ran-
dom sample cycle count included in
LFS.V8 ensures that users on are on
the safe side. The module has been
certified by an independent auditor
and therefore meets all statutory re-
quirements. This function further re-
duces the tiresome measuring, weigh-
ing and counting processes whilst
increasing cost-effectiveness and
decreasing costs. The random sam-
ple cycle count can be carried out in
parallel to daily business operations,
making a complete closure of the
warehouse or a production shutdown
unnecessary.
