January 21, 2002—FastPic4 v4.02, the latest release of FastPic Systems’ inventory management software, features an advanced order-processing module that is designed to improve system efficiency and order-picking accuracy while reducing re-stocking time in applications. FastPic says this module is especially valuable for operations managing multiple workstations, storage areas, or locations of a SKU. The allocation method always attempts to pick exactly the amount requested from the largest measure quantity available to minimize overages when picking. Storage and retrieval optimization through this advanced order-processing module can significantly reduce inventory and improve employee productivity and system throughput for operations.
FastPic4 software is designed to manage virtually all manual and automated storage and retrieval systems including shelving and racks, pick light systems, horizontal carousels, and vertical storage devices. The software can also manage multiple workzones where several different types of storage and retrieval systems are used in a single operation. Dynamic imaging allows users to see and zoom in on actual pictures of inventory items to verify picking. The software runs on Windows 95, 98, NT, and 2000. It supports any TCP/IP network and is SQL/OBDC enabled for easier, faster database connectivity. For more information visit FastPic Systems or call 207/854-8663.
