Unlocking Hidden Revenue: How a Powerful WMS Ensures You Capture Every Billable Charge
At Camelot 3PL Software, we understand that in the world of 3PL warehousing, every dollar counts. One of the most overlooked areas of revenue leakage is untracked or missed billable services. That’s why a powerful Warehouse Management System (WMS) isn’t just a tool—it’s a strategic asset.
A robust WMS ensures that every client interaction, service, and transaction is accurately recorded and billed. Whether it’s inbound handling, storage, pick and pack, labeling, or special projects, our Excalibur WMS captures it all in real time. No more relying on manual logs or memory to invoice for services rendered.
With automated charge capture, warehouse staff can focus on operations while the system tracks activities against client contracts. This not only improves billing accuracy but also strengthens client trust. When clients receive detailed, transparent invoices that align with their service agreements, it reinforces your professionalism and reliability.
In addition, Excalibur WMS integrates seamlessly with accounting and ERP systems, streamlining the invoicing process and reducing administrative overhead. The result? Faster billing cycles, improved cash flow, and fewer disputes.
But the benefits don’t stop there. With built-in analytics, you gain insights into which services generate the most revenue, which clients require the most resources, and where operational efficiencies can be improved. This data empowers you to make smarter business decisions and grow your bottom line.
Specific Ways to Capture All Billable Charges
- Automated Activity Logging
Every scan, move, and transaction is automatically recorded. Whether it’s receiving, putaway, picking, or shipping, the system logs who did what, when, and for which client—ensuring no service goes unbilled. - Custom Billing Rules by Client
Our WMS allows you to configure billing rules tailored to each client’s contract. From hourly labor to per-item handling fees, you can define exactly how and when charges should be applied. - Storage Billing by Location and Time
The system tracks inventory down to the bin level and calculates storage charges based on duration and space used. This ensures accurate monthly billing without manual reconciliation. - Value-Added Services (VAS) Tracking
Services like kitting, labeling, or repackaging are often missed. With Camelot’s WMS, these are tracked as discrete events and automatically added to the client’s invoice. - Integrated Time Tracking for Labor
Labor-intensive tasks can be tracked by employee and job type, allowing you to bill clients for actual time spent on their work—especially useful for special projects or seasonal surges. - Audit Trails and Billing Reports
Built-in audit trails and customizable billing reports provide transparency and accountability. You can easily validate charges and respond to client inquiries with confidence.
At Camelot 3PL Software, we believe that your WMS should do more than manage inventory—it should drive profitability. Let us help you capture every dollar you earn.
