An ERP that understands real operational complexity
Purpose-built for third-party logistics, from multi-client inventory ownership to manufacturing, billing, and the transactions your warehouse actually runs on.
Inventory Ownership & Multi-Client Operations
Managing inventory across multiple customers can create real operational complexity, especially when ownership changes throughout receiving, storage, manufacturing, and fulfillment. SPL maintains ownership visibility and accurate costing without sacrificing warehouse efficiency.
- Maintain accurate inventory valuation across customer and company-owned inventory
- Improve visibility across multiple customers and inventory owners
- Reduce operational complexity in shared warehouse environments
- Support true cost reporting for both your and your customer's inventory
- Enable more efficient warehouse execution while maintaining ownership accuracy
Mixed Ownership Manufacturing
Many co-manufacturers provide co-manufacturing services where ownership of raw materials and finished goods may belong to different parties. SPL manages these scenarios while maintaining ownership visibility and accurate cost reporting throughout production.
- Support co-manufacturing business models
- Improve visibility into customer-owned inventory during production
- Maintain ownership accuracy throughout manufacturing processes
- Simplify reporting when ownership exists across multiple parties
Flexible 3PL Billing Automation
Billing is often one of the most complex and time-consuming parts of running a 3PL operation. SPL provides a purpose-built billing engine that supports warehouse, logistics, storage, and manufacturing activities while letting you configure billing around customer requirements.
- Reduce manual billing effort
- Support a variety of customer billing requirements
- Improve billing consistency across operations
- Increase visibility into billable activities
- Simplify management of warehouse and manufacturing billing
Customer-Specific Billing Configuration
Every customer operates differently. SPL lets you configure billing periods, rules, pricing approaches, accruals, and invoice creation methods to align with customer agreements and operational requirements.
- Adapt billing processes to customer agreements
- Improve financial visibility throughout billing periods
- Support different invoicing approaches
- Increase flexibility without changing operational workflows
Transactions Built for 3PL Operations
Traditional ERP transactions often include information that is unnecessary for third-party logistics workflows. SPL introduces transaction types specifically designed for 3PL operations and customer-owned inventory.
- Simplify warehouse transaction entry
- Improve user adoption
- Reduce unnecessary data entry
- Better align warehouse processes with 3PL operations
Your Partner for Smarter 3PL Operations
As 3PL operations grow more complex, teams need systems that deliver accuracy, visibility, and reliable performance across multiple clients. While Microsoft Dynamics 365 provides a strong foundation, high-volume 3PL environments often require additional flexibility, automation, and control to operate efficiently.
