ERP Software for Food Distribution, Warehouse Operations, and Cold Storage


 

Inspired Technology Systems provides ERP software built for food distributors, cold storage warehouses, refrigerated storage facilities, meat processors, and warehouse-driven operations.

The platform combines inventory management, warehouse operations, purchasing, order processing, customer billing, lot traceability, barcode scanning, reporting, and accounting within a single operational system.

Unlike generic ERP software designed around fixed inventory and simple fulfillment workflows, the system supports catch weight inventory, pallet-level tracking, freezer warehouse operations, customer-owned inventory, and multi-customer warehouse environments.

Inventory can be tracked by item, pallet, lot, customer, location, quantity, and actual weight throughout receiving, storage, picking, shipping, and billing operations.



Inventory Control and Warehouse Visibility

 

Inventory is tracked in real time across warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and cold storage operations.

The system supports inventory tracking by item, lot, pallet, customer, quantity, weight, and warehouse location while maintaining operational visibility throughout receiving, storage, production, picking, shipping, and billing activity.


ERP Software for Inventory, Warehouse, and Operational Management

 

The platform connects inventory management, warehouse operations, purchasing, order processing, production activity, customer billing, reporting, and accounting within a single operational system.

Warehouse teams, accounting departments, purchasing managers, and operational staff work from the same inventory and transaction data in real time.

The system supports food distribution, cold storage, manufacturing, and warehouse-driven operational environments requiring lot traceability, catch weight inventory, barcode scanning, and customer-specific workflows.

Operational ERP configurations are available for service providers, warehouse operators, food manufacturers, and distribution environments:

IBMi Software Services


These are some of the services we can provide. We give you the software and train your team to maintain it or you can contract us to monitor, maintain and support it. You can also check out our AS400 page.

MSGW monitoring, MSGW notifications

Be notified of any jobs in MSGW status (Message-Wait) immediately or after a pre-setup number of seconds or minutes. Define rules by Job Name, or Subsystem. Applicable for nearly all software implementations on the AS400, IBMi, or iSeries




LCKW monitoring, LCKW notifications

Be notified of any jobs in LCKW status (Lock-Wait) immediately or after a pre-setup number of seconds or minutes. Define rules by Job Name, or Subsystem. Also applicable for nearly all software implementations on the AS400, IBMi, or iSeries




Active Job Monitoring

Setup a list of Job Names to monitor and notify when it's not running. This ensures you'll never run into the situation where a job that was supposed to be running, isn't running for a long period of time. Prevent issues by being proactive in finding them and being notified before your user community. Again, for nearly all software implementations on the AS400, IBMi, or iSeries

Setup automated purges of old stream files, IFS objects, directories and spool files

Having a purge and cleanup plan for your system is important. We can setup different rules for different folders or directories and purge them by age. We can setup different rules for different OUTQs or different Spool Files and purge them by age. This will free up your job tables preventing major issues. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.

Setup alerts of remaining disk space

Monitor your disk utilization by being notified proactively of any sudden jump in disk usage.









Automated FTP or TCP scripts

Automatically transmit a file via FTP or another protocol if a file is placed in folder. This is great for updating inventory in Scale systems where the 'monitor' scale needs to be updated periodically with a new set of SKUs for the day. We can leverage this technique for a variety of implementations like order transmission or ASN transmission of your shipments. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.

Job Completion Notification

We can modify your existing software and incorporate notification of when a process starts and/or when it ends. You can stop guessing when and if something took place by being notified so. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.






Programming Change Delivery Platform

If you have test and production environments and need to deliver software from one environment to another, or even one system to another, we have tools we can provide and train you on to streamline this process and even make it free of mistakes and missed steps. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.




Audit Trail

We can hook into the QAUDJRN journals and scrape them loading a database of important events you can then inquire on. For example, find out each and every time a user changes his or her password. Or log and report each time a particular user logs into the system, their activity, and when they log out. Mobile-friendly and mobile-first design, according to your needs. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.


Modernization of Backups

We can optimize your Backups so they run faster and disrupt your business for a minimal amount of time. We can also modify or implement a plan to eliminate or minimize your tape backups by utilizing virtual tape technology. Backups can be performed and then off loaded to external storage and even the cloud. Imagine not having to lug around tapes or pay for off side tape premises. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.

Off load your journal receivers to external storage

We can setup nightly purges and FTP processes to remove journal receivers from your system and store them on external media and even the cloud. This can free up disk space making your system run smoother or even allowing you to grow your business before upgrading. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.



Map your IFS or Disk Storage

We can scrape your IFS system and files on a regular basis and allow you inquiry over them. Determine temporary directories that should be purged or find old objects you no longer need. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.






Variety of alert formats

Stay informed on your PC, tablet, and phone. We can alert you via system messaging alerts, emails, and/or Telegram push messaging. We make sure you know what you need to, as soon as it happens. AS400, IBMi, or iSeries implementations.
