TSL Packhouse Management includes an optional module that allows full management of packhouse stock control, inventory management, consignment, sales, dispatch, batch management, and inventory and stock manipulation. Traceability features include the creation of bar codes that can be applied to all inventory ( fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, grain silos, batches of fish etc ). Barcodes guarantee a very high level of traceability when being scanned via a mobile scanning device (shown below).

The bar code's can be scanned using almost any hand held scanning device to perform inventory and traceability management, stock control, stock take, and sales and dispatch functions such as;
- Generate Stock Labels
- Use PDA to move stock locations
- Scan stock for identification
- Mange all stock traceability via PDA
- Generate Stock Receipts
- Record Bin Numbers
- Collect picker/harvester data via PDA upon stock arrival
- Pay pickers/harvesters according to the volume they have harvested
- Analyse picker/harvester performance
- Maintain traceability to the specific picker for a unit that is packed in the field
- View stock handling history
- View incoming stock summary
- View remaining stock to pack
- Collect yield data automatically when scanning in produce
- Collect weight, temperature and other important information
- Specify the storage location for individual units or groups of stock containers
- Print to mobile devices using cloud print services
Use devices such as an iPhone or Android smartphone to control stock, instead of scanning you will enter (short) bar-code numbers into the software. This feature is especially useful for businesses where no bar-code scanning equipment is available. The main packhouse software is based around a web interface, and therefore will work on virtually any device; however, if you wish to read barcodes you should purchase an industrial barcode scanning device. Check with TSL first to ensure you purchase a compatible device.
