This functionality can be used for goods receipts, raw materials, production, packaging, finished goods, returns, and anywhere else where inventory is managed.

PDMX Traceability On Demand:
Governments are increasing the regulatory scrutiny into the supply chain for food products. Regulations and guidelines such as the Food Safety & Modernization Act (FSMA), the EU Food Law and the Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) demand full traceability (Tracking & Tracing) from companies of all sizes. In addition, large retailers are making additional demands on their entire supply chain to ensure that they are compliant. Being able to quickly perform a mock-recall with reliability is becoming a vital necessity for companies in the food industry.
PDMX Traceability On-Demand. The Produmex enhancement for SAP Business One will track raw materials and finished goods from the moment they arrive into your warehouse and to the final customer.
You will now be able to perform forward or backward traceability by:
- Item
- Barcode
- Batch number
- Production or Packaging Line
- From-/ Till Date.
PDMX Serialization:
On a worldwide scale, industries and public authorities increasingly have to fight organized fraud and counterfeiting. These criminal practices cost billions of $ to companies, governments and consumers in terms of loss of sales and tax revenues, abolition of jobs, safety and health risks, etc.
Industry segments such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, tobacco, food, luxury goods, telecom and high tech product are particularly affected by this.
Apart from the financial losses, the regulatory requirements that governments gradually are imposing become more and more strict and make it necessary for companies to act.
Serialization, i.e. the individual numbering and identification of products at item level, is an effective anti-counterfeiting technology. This technology has been integrated in the PDMX Suite for SAP Business One as a standard feature to address the growing requirements of its customers in this area.
Produmex substantially enhances and extends the base functionality of SAP business One. The result is great visibility of inventory by serial number (or by batch) combined with on-demand traceability to meet regulatory requirements, for recalls, service and support, and to prevent counterfeiting.
PDMX Serialization covers functions including:
- Generation of serial numbers (including randomization & control characters)
