Using eTurns TrackStock Replenish inventory management app and a phone/scanner, users scan barcodes of items that need replenishment. Information such as item #, location, package quantity, and customer details are all captured with one scan. Tapping "Send PO" sends the orders through eTurns’ cloud directly to the distributor's ERP system. This process eliminates 90% of the time it takes to order from an e-commerce site where customers have to write down and key-in part numbers plus it helps keep customers from price shopping these items on other sites. TrackStock Replenish can be used by either distributor drivers/reps doing VMI or end-customers scanning for themselves (CMI).

eTurns customers who use TrackStock Manage inventory app to scan the items they use are able to track consumption, fine tune minimum/maximum levels using eTurns trending recommendations and therefore optimize inventory levels while avoiding stockouts. By optimizing inventory, eTurns' customers have decreased inventory value by up to 73%. By using eTurns inventory software for automated replenishment on an ongoing basis, customers can continue to operate with over 70% lower inventory carrying costs.

TrackStock keeps inventory managers in touch with their customers’ inventory by providing visibility and real-time monitoring of the status of all items at all times with any web browser. Users can set email alerts that are sent when thresholds are breached.

TrackStock can either: 1) immediately send off the consumption transactions, 2) hold them until a later date by batching them, or 3) consolidate them and send them at a later date. Batching the consigned pulls simply delays sending every individual pull that the customer’s tech did in using the material. Consolidating the pulls means that TrackStock can take all of the pulls for the batch and reduce the number of POs sent to the distributor by sending only one PO per item. 

A distributor can offer eTurns TrackStock Replenish inventory management app to customers to replenish all consumables from all suppliers using only one tool. TrackStock will separate items by supplier -- the “sponsoring” distributor’s orders are sent directly from the customer to the distributor’s ERP system for timely replenishment, while other suppliers’ orders are sent through email. Meanwhile, the sponsoring distributor can see within the eTurns Bill of Materials all the items the customer orders from other distributors so they can compete for that business.

eTurns’ distributor customers have found that when they sell more than just products - but the easy replenishment of those products - they are able to increase revenue with those customers by up to 30%. By making replenishment easy with eTurns, customers have no reason to leave, and distributors end up increasing their share of wallet.

Many inventory management software products use forecasts to determine replenishment timing, but eTurns TrackStock Manage can replenish based on actual usage history and calculate how the Min/Max/Critical levels should be set for all items. The user can set how close to the calculated Min/Max he wants to set the levels until comfortable that actual history is an accurate predictor of usage levels. Receive email alerts when items fall below Min & Critical, prompting replenishment orders.

eTurns TrackStock Manage helps distributors offer consigned inventory to their customers in a risk-mitigated way. By capturing each consumption transaction, TrackStock Manage allows the distributor to bill based on usage as TrackStock sends those transactions to the distributor’s ERP system. TrackStock also has the ability to hold these consumption transactions and send them weekly or on any schedule depending on customer agreement. Independently, eTurns TrackStock will continuously monitor on-hand quantities to trigger replenishment when the minimums are breached.
