Thanks to this, creating reports that precisely meet the specific needs of each business has become easier than ever. Customizing reports has also become more flexible, helping users save significant time and effort compared to building reports from scratch.

From there, save a lot of time for customers by eliminating the number of clicks/steps required to release the PCID for the shipment.

6. The new 'Move Allocation' function

The new Kinetic function allows users to move allocated inventory to new inventory locations.

This streamlined process is triggered by a new feature that helps users save time when moving inventory allocated to sales orders or jobs.

Warehouse optimization has never been easier! With the new 'Allocation Move' feature, you can flexibly adjust the location of goods with just a few clicks.

7. Inter-company sales orders are automated.

8. Carbon cost aggregation
