Using Barcode Labels and Scanners
Accolent ERP provides the ability to associate product codes with barcodes that can be scanned by barcode readers to identify the product. Manufacturers’ products will typically already have GS1-registered barcodes. Custom barcodes (i.e., not GS1-registered) can also be created. Once a barcode is received or created, and associated with a product code, Accolent ERP will […]

To facilitate this, Accolent ERP includes a Pick Printed shipping sub-status that indicates whether a pick ticket has been printed for an order or not. When orders are moved to fulfillment and the pick ticket is either (i) printed […]
Deleting a Customer Deposit
Accolent ERP allows for the taking of payment in full when an order is placed (such as, for example, on an eCommerce order). In this case, the payment is recorded as a Customer Deposit until the order and its associated backorders are invoiced, and then the payment is applied against the Accounts Receivable created. The […]
Creating Credit Memos with Defective Items
Accolent ERP allows for a Credit Memo to distinguish between the items being refunded which can be put back into Inventory, which are Defective and which have been approved for a refund but are Not Returned.
