Advance Ship Notice (ASN)

In the world of supply chain management, two messages reign supreme: the Order Acknowledgment and the Advance Ship Notice (ASN). These messages hold the power to revolutionize on-time delivery and improve overall efficiency.

​

Let's focus on the ASN, which provides crucial details about shipments from suppliers. Assembled with care, the ASN includes information that mirrors the original purchase order. From content descriptions and carrier transportation details to carton identifications, no stone is left unturned. To ensure seamless tracking, barcoded shipping labels are affixed to cartons, pallets, and boxes, guided by the steadfast GS1 standards.

​

But here's the game-changer — TPSynergy simplifies the process by generating UCC128 barcoded labels, adhering to international standards embraced by logistics organizations worldwide. Armed with an electronic copy of the ASN, effortlessly integrated into the receiving WMS/ERP system, product receipt becomes a matter of minutes, accomplished through a swift scan. TPSynergy paves the way for suppliers, facilitating electronic submission of the ASN in a user-friendly interface. Whether it's advanced Electronic Data Integration (EDI) or spreadsheet-uploaded shipments, TPSynergy has got it covered. Say goodbye to excuses — providing an Advanced Shipment Notice is now a breeze with TPSynergy.

​

But wait, there's more! Packing slips from TPSynergy contain comprehensive information, encompassing all the shipment details. Each carton is adorned with a unique identifier, skillfully showcased through carton-level labels. This key feature allows for effortless tracking, even after the goods are transported to various stores. Let the carton labels stay with the cartons until the last item is consumed, giving you the power to access essential supply details whenever the need arises.

TPSynergy simplifies the supply chain game, making every step efficient, engaging, and worry-free.
