Digital
& IT
Our WBS services and in-house processes are supported by industry-leading technology and integrated software solutions.
Our WBS customs system and accounting software facilitates compliance, visibility, risk-reduction, and cost-savings.
Track & Trace
Our digital track and tracing platform was first launched in 2004, and has seen continuous development since. Detailed tracking allows you to follow your goods every step of the way, access dispatch summaries, and extensive consignment history via our archives.
Warehouse Management System
Our advanced, bespoke-built Warehouse Management System records each stage of consolidation from actual receipt, through sorting, processing, checking and confirmation. Our development team continues to advance the system, which now incorporates digital management of bar-coded parcels and pallets which have been electronically checked and weighed to ensure accuracy and traceability. Electronic scanning of documents into our document management system gives you access to incredible consignment detail via our web portal, and provides the added benefit of auto-generated electronic shipping documents. Our industry-leading WMS has been integrated by many partners and suppliers across the globe to deliver full visibility through the entire supply chain ecosystem.
Other benefits include:
Individual user accounts and secure connection to our website
An advanced search function
Automatically generated shipment pack available immediately after shipment containing all customs documentation, a dispatch summary, and all supplier invoices.
The ability to export reports into PDF and MS Excel, including your Awaiting Shipments and Dispatch Summaries
Straightforward accounting options and view of supplier invoices
Customs system
Our WBS customs system has been developed in-house and incorporates an EDI link that electronically transfers key invoice and shipment data, including invoice number, value, copies and full commodity code details directly into our customs system, automatically generating the customs entry. This reduces manual data entry, minimises the risk of errors and improves the accuracy and efficiency of the customs process.
We make international customs processes simple, accurate and efficient.
FX & Supplier Payments
Our centralised payment system saves time, money, and hassle by paying suppliers in a consolidated way.
All payments are handled through specially arranged ‘Client Only’ accounts giving you total security. PubPay payments to us are received and deposited at the bank as client money. Clients located outside the EU are offered the use of our PubPay system to process multiple payments to their suppliers. Payments can be processed and transmitted to almost any publisher, distributor, or wholesaler worldwide. We can receive payments in Pounds Sterling, Euros or US Dollars and process outward payments to suppliers in any currency.
