Vendor Collaboration Portal

Most Organizations require suppliers to create Advanced Shipping Notifications before or at the time of shipment. In the absence of a unified IT landscape sending this Advanced Shipping Notification in a predetermined standard format is a challenging task. Lighthouse Vendor Portal enables easy generation of the ASN in a standard format at the click of a few buttons and with very few user-defined inputs. ASN is transmitted to the principals in real time to plan their inbound operations, warehousing, and also their production sequence.

Suppliers and the Principal record the operational status against each Purchase Order – PO issued, PO accepted, ASN created, PO shipped, ASN accepted, PO shipped with return shipment. This provides complete transparency between stakeholders.

Most organizations would experience a large number of shipments reporting in on a daily basis from a number of suppliers, timely receipt of these consignments and subsequent track & trace within the premises is invariably a concern. Lighthouse Vendor Portal generates standardized barcodes automatically to be included in the shipment documentation. Receipt, subsequent consignment tracking, management of material by receipt lots become a streamlined process.
