How does it stand out from other warehouse management systems?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On top of the functionality that you would get with\u00a0a standard warehouse management system<\/a>, Despatch Cloud Fulfilment allows businesses to set up individual hubs for each of their fulfilment clients, giving them a window into the status of their orders, as well as access to certain warehousing features such as performance reports and purchase orders. This way you can ensure full transparency between you and your clients, fostering brand trust and reducing\u00a0customer inquiries all while remaining in full control of your warehouse.\u00a0It also offers an integrated billing solution, allowing users to automate client invoicing.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here,\u00a0you\u2019ll\u00a0find a\u00a0breakdown of all the client accounts\u00a0you\u2019ve\u00a0set up under your master Fulfilment account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click the Create Client<\/strong> tab, then fill out all the relevant fields with your new client\u2019s data.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
