Inventory Control
Inventory Control is the foundation for all other system modules and processes in HELM.
Item Master
At the forefront of the Inventory Module is the Item Master. This robust table contains all information about the different types of items you track. The Item Master stores all product information for each item and each unitization level.
- Contains over 100 inventory parameters and 24 user defined parameters for unique information
- Contains multiple integrated views and child tables
- Can show everything from full audit trails of all item transactions to receipt and shipment information
- Shows warehouse level breakdowns of quantity and replenishment requirements
Warehouses
The Inventory Module also shows your inventory by a warehouse view breakdown.
- Allows material availability by warehouse to be seen quickly and easily
- Allows setting of warehouse stock min/max and replenishment requirements
- User profiles within the HELM system allow access control to be limited to specific warehouses
Allocations
The Inventory Module also helps manage allocations, restrictions, blocks, holds, Q/C checks, and other use and availability settings.
- Main allocations normally tied to assigning products for usage in specific countries, projects or programs
- For donations, Donor Restrictions are maintained in the Stock Data to forbid product from being misused
- Info regarding regional blocks, product inspection and holds, receipt sign-off and Q/C checks are all integrated into the Stock management
Transactions
The Inventory Module includes a full set of standard transactional functions you would expect in any Warehouse Management System (WMS).
- Standard transactions such as receipts, transfers, issues and more
- Track the user who initiated the transaction and the exact time of submission
- Data is summarized to display product utilization, turnover, and usage history
Stock Table
The main child table of the Item Master, and the true dynamic core of the Inventory Module is the Stock Table. The Stock Table shows every detail of products currently in inventory.
- Breaks information down in detail by pallet number, lot number, order reservation, expiration date, product allocation and more
- Contains over 100 item parameters and 24 user defined parameters
