SNS Adds Small Parcel Functionality to Infor WMS with nShift Partnership
May 2024 – SNS, a leading supply chain consultancy and software provider, has announced a new partnership with nShift, a multi-carrier shipping software company. This collaboration will enable seamless integration between Infor WMS and nShift for parcel shipping solutions.
The integration allows Infor WMS users to easily configure nShift for parcel shipping without the need for complex coding changes. This means that specific shipping options can be selected for individual orders, using features already present in Infor WMS.
The interfaces are designed in such a way as to optimize response times across the two applications and seamlessly handle the different shipping requirements and rules for various carriers. The converged systems will handle tracking number generation, rates, labels, and track URL generation to deliver an intuitive capability for distribution centers looking to optimize performance.
Additionally, shipping labels can be stored within Infor OS using Infor Document Management, allowing for easy access and printing.
“As a leading supply chain consultancy, we continuously listen to the needs and trends impacting our customers. When it comes to parcel shipping, nShift is a leading platform, and as part of our commitment to best practice, we decided to partner with the team there to establish an interface which facilitates easy integration of the two systems,” comments Mario Ghosn, General Manager, SNS.
“As warehouses and distribution centers face an increasingly dynamic and complex set of requirements from their customers and partners, the software they rely upon must keep pace and deliver the capabilities necessary for full automation,” comments Mark Baptiste, Global Strategic Partner Director, nShift. “Infor WMS is a world-class platform and as such, developing this interface will add value to the customers it supports, and instill intelligent automation to expedite warehouse and supply chain workflows.”
