Argos Software software

The core of any 3PL business is handling products not owned by the company. This makes 3PL software unique and different from WMS software that is designed for warehouses and distribution centers. While both types of software must have excellent inventory management and order processing features, 3PL software differentiates itself with value-add transactions and storage billing. Accounting and reporting needs can be different too, since KPIs are often reported by customer account. Transaction charges are as variable as each customer. Whether your 3PL warehouse charges for common items such as in-and-out transactions or for complex, value-added tasks like assembly and kitting, Argos Software enables you to bill accurately for these services.

A comprehensive trucking and freight management system. If your company trucks products for hire, you need a proven transportation and freight management system (TMS software) that understands your business. Since 1984, Argos Software’s freight management system has been relied upon by “for hire” carriers, contract carriers, freight forwarders and freight brokers offering truckload, LTL, container, refrigerated, agricultural, tanker, bulk, pneumatic, specialized/heavy haulers, riggers, dump, auto, truck, messenger services, and last-mile delivery. Some of our clients are completely local while others are exclusively long haul, with most in between.

The Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Software modules are both full featured open systems. In these two modules, you can enter transactions received from other ABECAS™ Insight modules or imported from outside. Statements may be printed, emailed or faxed, either automatically or manually. A dashboard can display critical details. The Accounts Receivable module allows you to manage your open items, receive payments, make adjustments, create credits, generate finance charges, project cash receipts, and maintain collection records. The Accounts Payable module allows you to manage your open items, make payments either by check or electronically, take discounts, make adjustments, project cash requirements, and maintain a vendor history.

The General Ledger Software module provides standard financial accounting reports based on the Account and Department information in the Accounting module. The reports available include the Trial Balance, Balance Sheet and Income Statement in a variety of formats covering a range of periods as well as the detail behind each account for each Fiscal Period. These reports are available on both an accrual- and cash-basis. Cash Flow and Change in Financial Condition Statements can be user defined with the AC Accounting Summary Report Generator.

The Cost Accounting Software module is an Activity Based Costing (ABC) system that integrates with all ABECAS™ Insight modules. It shares the Accounting records with the General Ledger Software and Fund Accounting modules so that all accounting records, either internal or external, automatically update all three modules. The accounting structure is easily mapped to your business processes and requirements. This module provides a comprehensive repository of all job information and is a valuable resource as you evaluate the profitability and performance of each job and its components.

The Fund Accounting Software module provides an alternative to manage responsibility grouping within the business not used as the GL Department, such as location, functional department or responsibility center. Or, it may be used, as its name implies, to track Funds by source and their usage. It provides standard financial accounting reports based on the Account and Fund information in the Accounting Software module. The reports available are similar to those in the General Ledger Software. Cash Flow and Change in Financial Condition Statements along with other required reports can be user defined with the AC Accounting Summary Report Generator.

Inventory Management Software is a core function of the ABECAS Insight WMS. Tracking product from pre-receipt to shipment is a vital component of the warehouse operation and the software is designed to facilitate that task. Inventory management software must provide location control, product status and visibility to customers while supporting sublot or serial number traceability, both real time and for historical review.

RF (Radio Frequency) is the globally recognized term referring to the application of barcode scanner software technology within a warehouse environment. This has now been incorporated into a push for Mobility. As devices and networks have become more sophisticated the use of barcode scanner software and mobile computing has expanded. Whether it is in connected (real time) or custom built batch applications, the use of field data capture devices is exploding.
