aims360 apr mar release notes

We’re close to the halfway mark of the year and we’re not stopping any time. In case you missed it, we recently pushed out our highly-anticipated Production Forecasting report. Ever wish you have a tool to help you prevent inventory overstock and losing your hard-earned dollars? This report is designed to take the guesswork out and present you accurate facts of your inventory levels.

Just like the report, we’re developing some major (some may say life-changing) tools on the way so stay tuned! Not going to leave you empty-handed, read on to learn our latest updates.

WMS – New Data Output Added to 940 Order or Pick Ticket Export
