Fulton paper company live with Warehouse Mobility two weeks before scheduled go live
Fulton Paper Company, a multi-branch distributor based in the southeastern USA, went live with ComActivity Warehouse Mobility against Lawson M3 ERP on the 19th of May, two weeks before the planned go live on June 2nd. "This solution works so well so I see no reason to wait" says William Dale, project manager at Fulton Paper.
ComActivity Warehouse Mobility is a PDA solution that interacts on-line with Lawson M3 application for warehousing operations like Purchase order receiving, Location movement and Pick reporting. It is streamlined according to Fulton Paper's requirements and their way of using M3, and adds capabilities that simplifies the operators work as well as circumvents ERP short-comings. The project started early April with specifications on the wanted seven flows for Purchase order Receive and Put-away, Distribution order Receive and Put-away, Item location movement, Truck pick and load reporting and Truck pick and load reporting with item checking. All applications were designed to mainly use scanning as input, and only use the numeric keyboard when no information can be scanned, like for reported quantities. Step by step the flows were built, tested, enhanced and verified one by one until all warehouse operations could be managed only in PDA’s. In mid may then the decision was made to go live earlier than planned at the Jacksonville Warehouse. "It is a great solution. I am very happy with it." says William Dale and continues "This is the best solution for mobile warehousing I have seen to date".
