Many clients have integration between the Caliq WMS and their chosen carriers.
Changing carriers or adding additional carriers has always meant additional integration work and this can be a barrier to seeking better deals for your outbound shipments.
Caliq have been working with Scurri (www.scurri.co.uk) who provide a single platform which integrates to multiple carriers. This means that at the packing point the packer can select which is the most appropriate carrier for the shipment and generate that carrier’s labels instantly. Rules can also be built into Scurri which enable the carrier decision to be made by Scurri based on data sent by Caliq.

Correctly assigning new customers, prospects and leads to the appropriate field sales rep/agent and territory has always presented a challenge, especially when leads are coming in from external sources like web sites.
We have now introduced an option to use the Customer Region as a Post Code Area list, which we are finding is a popular method for dividing up the UK into manageable territories.
Against each Post Code Area you simply enter the field sales person and, if required the Internal Sales Rep.
A new packing method has been introduced which can be used with all configurations of the Caliq WMS (warehouse management system), including clients using the mobile hand-held terminal systems.
The Pick Note or Packing Note (depending on your work-flow) will have a bar code which is scanned at the packing bench to identify the shipment being packed. If there are more shipments for the same customer and address the packer will be asked to scan the others for consolidation.
