For a hose distributor, it’s not so easy to get tight and accurate control over inventory while also increasing productivity. What if you had a tool that could help your CSR’s generate complete hose assemblies in seconds? And what if this same tool automatically calculated cut-off lengths, material cost and labor amounts and allowed you to automatically generate serial numbers & labels? TrulinX Software does it all.
With the TrulinX lot tracking system, you can make time-consuming tasks as simple as the click of a button. Hose & Rubber Distributors business requires a sophisticated inventory management system - and that may include the ability to determine at a moment’s notice which vendor provided you with a product, and which customer took delivery of a specific lot, heat, or batch.
