Take control of processes with our warehouse management software

X-Dock is an all-in-one cross-docking warehouse management software that allows for real-time visibility over inbound shipments, warehouse movements, and outbound planning. 

 

It all starts when the warehouse plans to receive goods from a supplier – even before the delivery arrives, X-Dock allows for real-time visibility of all incoming goods. Transport information data is then shared via the X-Dock warehouse management software, allowing the team to plan all the daily waves for the warehouse in no-time. 

 

When the truck arrives, X-Dock helps with inbound receiving, giving the warehouse team the ability to scan and confirm their arrival. The warehouse operator then unloads the goods, with the easy-to-use X-Dock App. 

 

Our cross-docking software goes even further, providing lane and position allocation, allowing for better usage of the warehouse floor, and in addition to standard cross-docking, consolidation is also available with the MIXMOVE X-Dock software. It’s designed to allow goods to be organised by end destination, next hub or any other specific rules needed. 

 

As soon as all the organised pallets are labelled and moved, X-Dock warehouse management software determines the number of stock required to arrive at each delivery location. Documentation is then automatically sent to the selected carriers for transport, helping improve communication and reduce any room for human error. 

 

When the carrier arrives at the warehouse, he registers and receives a special placard that makes sure the correct goods are loaded into his truck. This means you can make the best use of space because all cargo has been optimally organised and loaded. 

 

Added to this, reporting on performance has never been easier. X-Dock has its own reporting functionality and the ability to integrate third party data analytics tools too. X-Dock ensures collaboration and visibility for suppliers, warehouse teams, and carriers, making your hub operations streamlined and efficient
