Standardize Your Logistics. Automate Your Compliance.

Supplying major global retailers and Tier-1 distributors requires more than just a great product—it requires flawless logistics. When your operations move into high-volume retail, you are measured by your ability to meet strict global data standards. eveXso automates these requirements, ensuring your warehouse meets international compliance audits every time.

1. Global Traceability with SSCC & GS1 Standards

The Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) is the international standard for pallet identification. It allows any automated distribution center in the world to identify a shipment without opening the packaging.

The eveXso Advantage:

  • Compliant Labeling: Generate and print GS1-compliant SSCC labels directly from the mobile interface as pallets are built.
  • Unit of Measure (UOM) Integrity: Automatically link individual items to cartons and cartons to pallets, maintaining a digital "parent-child" relationship across the entire shipment.

2. Advanced Shipping Notices (ASN) via EDI

A global retailer's "Digital Twin" of your shipment must arrive before the physical truck. If the Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) is missing or inaccurate, the shipment is often rejected at the gate.

The eveXso Advantage:

  • Data Accuracy at the Source: Because eveXso captures data at the point of pick and pack, your ASNs are 100% accurate to what is physically on the truck.
  • EDI Integration: Our API-first architecture pushes data seamlessly to Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) providers, automating the communication between your warehouse and your customer's procurement system.

3. Contractual Expiry & MLOR Enforcement

Major distributors often enforce Minimum Life on Receipt (MLOR) or "Remaining Shelf Life" contracts. Shipping stock that falls even one day outside of these contractual windows results in costly "Charge-Backs" and return freight.

The eveXso Advantage:

  • Contract-Aware Picking: The system calculates expiry requirements based on specific customer profiles.
  • Visual Guardrails: Pickers are guided by a universal "Traffic Light" system:

GREEN: Fully compliant stock.

RED: Warning—Short-dated stock (requires override).

GREY: Hard-blocked—Expired or Quarantined.

4. Scalable Logistics for High-Volume Despatch

Moving 1,000+ orders a day requires a frictionless transition from the packing bench to the courier.

The eveXso Advantage:

  • Multi-Carrier Integration: Connect directly to global and local courier networks.
  • Automated Documentation: Shipping labels, packing slips, and manifests are generated and printed automatically upon order completion, removing manual data entry bottlenecks.
