What is Partner Material Management in BRAINR?
Managing materials associated with partners in BRAINR is an essential feature that allows you to configure and customize the materials used or handled in operations related to specific partners, such as customers, suppliers, or the facility itself.
What is it for?
Configuring materials associated with partners in BRAINR is essential for:
Automatic classification of materials in operations:
It allows BRAINR to automatically classify tare weights (containers, packaging, etc.) during receiving, production, logistics, and shipping operations, associating them with the configured partner, address, or document type. This feature eliminates the need for manual classification and reduces operational errors.
Configuration of Specific Parameters:
You can adjust various material characteristics, such as:
Container Type and Profile: To differentiate between secondary, tertiary, or partner-specific packaging.
Validity and Reference Price: Configuration of material validity and associated reference values.
Expiration Rules: Setting deadlines for shipping and receiving, allowing for stricter control of sensitive materials.
Label Control: Clear identification of materials through automatically printed labels.
Flexibility for Different Scenarios:
Additional settings such as group, document type, and sales order control allow the system to be adapted to the needs of individual partners, ensuring effective and optimized processes.
Important Notes:
This setting is important for BRAINR to automatically classify tare weights for materials. It can be configured at the document and address level, if necessary.
