SDS3 is a safety net for parts and orders that "fall through the cracks" . These can be parts that were sold but not in stock, oversold
or just plain not available at the time when a unsuspecting sales rep takes an order. The purchaser can open a screen and in one
glance view all orders that have items that still need to be procured. Within the same screen, SDS3 users can see all their listed available sources with offers (availables) for the backordered item. The user can then create a Purchase Order
with one click of the mouse for whichever vendor or source he desires. Read More

Many large Manufacturers, OEM's and Military require specific documents that include the use of barcoding in one way or the other.
SDS3 allows users to print barcoded labels in 6 International standard barcoded formats. These barcodes can be automatically generated
and printed whenever desired for received items, packing lists, and shipping labels, and other uses.
Automate your warehouses receiving and delivery sytems today! With minimal setup and configuration you can also
scan items in (using a standard barcode reader) during the receiving process further cutting down on manual data entry in your warehouse.
