User manual | Troubleshooting

Purpose

With the SCM app, users assign loggers to draft shipments and complete draft shipments.

Use Case

The SCM app comes in handy when a user creating a shipment does not have access to the physical loggers and unable to assign them to shipments, for example, if shipments have been created centrally in the Controlant software platform or through another system via an integration.

With the Controlant SCM app, a user with access to the loggers can assign them to a shipment before the logger(s) is turned on and placed with the product.

Hardware

The SCM app is delivered installed on a hand held device with a built in barcode scanner.
