Cell phone wholesalers and retailers run a unique business process that is heavily reliant on inventory management practices. Certain components are required to be tracked from when they enter the wholesaler’s facility to when they leave the facility with serial numbers. These serial numbers are required to be tracked through every process.
Streamlining of Processes
Depending on negotiations, a cell phone wholesaler may import a large quantity of phones all at once, which could stress the system and lead to inaccuracies. Once at the wholesaler, each cell phone must go through the entire process of sorting, testing, and grading. This is a time-consuming process. By analyzing and streamlining the tasks of each department, you can work more efficiently and reduce the number of errors or bottlenecks.
Serial Number Inventory Management Software
Inventory tracking itself can be very time-consuming, especially when every component needs to be tracked when it is used. Every cell phone has one or possibly two IMEI numbers assigned to it. An IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number is a 15-digit assigned based on the connectivity. Maintaining IMEI numbers is important to ensure safety, security, and regulatory obligations. Because inventory tracking is so time-consuming, inventory management software is essential to maintain accuracy and efficiency. A serialized inventory management software is designed to give you real-time knowledge of your IMEI inventory along with creating the necessary digital paper trail.
Easy Barcode Scanning
An inventory management control system can make data input easier through barcode scanning. An employee simply scans the product bar code and tells the system what he is doing with the inventory, the system automatically moves the inventory providing a digital paper trail for the inventory. Manually entering all the data can easily lead to duplication and errors, whereas bar code scanning increases the accuracy and eliminates the duplications and errors.
Efficient Collaboration with Suppliers
It is important to create customized processes and categories for grading phones. During the testing phase, you can easily generate reports and print them directly from the software so that they can be attached to the phone and sent forward to retailers or sent back for repairs. This also allows you to analyze a supplier’s performance.
