Dashboard
Each User can create their own Dashboard that they see when logging in. This can show reports, graphs or a list of transactions that need actioning.
Sales Order
Create a Quote or Sales Order with all the customers special pricing, and search for an item by Part number, a word in the description or scan a barcode. Then take prepayment for the order and have Fishbowl automatically email your customer an Order Confirmation before Picking.
With our Quick Order plugin you can instantly see what customers have ordered previously and add the items instantly to the sales order. Saving you sales team hours!
Picking
The warehouse picking process is where Fishbowl comes into its own! With the list of picks to be completed showing in a list on the left-hand side the warehouse can see live their to-do list and prioritise this list by Due Date, Carrier or Delivery Run or Priority. They can start each pick individually, in a batch, or group multiple orders together into a grouped pick ticket.
The Pick then sorts the products into the most logical Pick Order so you can pick by warehouse shelf location. The time savings here can be huge.
Shipping
Once orders are Picked, they progress to the Shipping step. From here the warehouse can sort Order by Delivery Run or Freight company and if you are using your own drivers prepare a run sheet.
With Fishbowl GO the Ship Step can be replaced with a driver Delivery function. This enable the driver to get a customer’s signature on their phone or tablet enabling you to store it against the Shipment in Fishbowl for future reference.
Backorder Management
With Fishbowls Pick screen the warehouse can see all backorders as a red or a partial backorder as a yellow dot. As stock becomes available the colour will change indicating to the backorder can now be fulfilled.
As the warehouse Receives stock it is also possible for them to see which transactions are waiting on the stock to be received.
Customer Special Pricing
