3PL client management
Manage your 3PL client relationships from within your warehouse management system to seamlessly work together and enhance communication.
Why do you need a warehouse management software with 3PL functionality?
As a 3PL fulfillment partner, your clients are at the centre of your operations and working seamlessly together is the key to a successful working relationship.
A 3PL warehouse management system will streamline your operations by digitalising processes, adding automation and using technology to improve accuracy; while also simplifying your client management tasks such as communications, invoicing and reporting.
Benefits of a 3PL WMS
Transparency for you and your clients
Keep clear records of client data such as their chargeable rates, contact details and invoices within the WMS.
Additionally, to foster a good working relationship, you can give your clients full visibility of their own data, including:
- Account information
- API connections
- Order progress
- Inventory levels
- Invoices
- Reports
Reduced queries
By giving your clients access to their account data, it reduces the burden on your administrative staff to be sending emails, making calls and answering large volumes of queries.
By having their information via their own login, your clients can self-serve any queries they have, raise ASNs and view reports and invoices, and they’ll only need to get in touch if the information is not available via the WMS, or if something is amiss.
Simplify client billing
Keep clear records of the chargeable rates for each individual client. Rates include:
- Storage costs
- Handling costs
- Fulfillment costs
- Shipping costs
Remove all of the guesswork from building your client invoices by generating invoices based on the rates stored in their account and on the activities you’ve performed on their behalf and tracked within the WMS.
