Small business productivity solutions provider Wasp Barcode Technologies announced the launch of Wasp Inventory Control v6. The updated version of the inventory software features real-time visibility of stock levels, locations and inventory access, designed to enable SMBs (small and midsize businesses) to update inventory data using an 802.11 b./g/n network.
Building upon Wasp’s history in helping SMBs track stock, Wasp Inventory Control v6 RF Professional and RF Enterprise introduce real-time functionality, for improved inventory accuracy. The company said real-time inventory tracking allows businesses with multiple warehouse staff or rapidly changing stock levels to ensure that data is always current and accurate. Real-time inventory tracking also eliminates the need to batch-transfer data each time information is updated. In addition, Inventory Control v6 includes free, unlimited technical support for the life of the product and free getting started training.
“The real-time access to inventory numbers adds another critical dimension to an SMB’s business capabilities,” said Tom O’Shea, general manager of Wasp Barcode Technologies. “All of the new features of Inventory Control v6 are a direct result of feedback from our customers and reseller partners. The new features of Inventory Control v6 – combined with Wasp’s free, unlimited technical support and getting started training – will position our customers for success.”
The Standard edition of Wasp Inventory Control v6 software also includes several new features. Users now have the ability to attach images and files to inventory records for improved access, and can utilize multiple inventory valuation methods, including LIFO, FIFO, and Moving Average, allow for more accurate tracking of inventory cost. Additionally, users can import an unlimited number of inventory items from an external source. Inventory Control v6 Standard also offers enhanced reporting, allowing users to view additional inventory data. These features are also available in Inventory Control v6 RF Professional and RF Enterprise.
Wasp Inventory Control v6 is available in three editions: Standard, RF Professional and RF Enterprise. The Standard (Std) edition ($795) offers one PC license and one mobile license. The RF Professional (RF Pro) edition ($2,195) features five PC licenses and one mobile license. The RF Enterprise edition ($3,695) includes the same features as RF Pro, but with unlimited PC user licenses and five mobile licenses.
