Not completely. We sell a simple app that builds a database with the incoming
POs (850). The Routing Requests (753) can be built from the existing orders.
The incoming Routing Instructions (754) are used to update the original orders
and shipment (if it has been created). Then we print UCClabels & send out ASNs
(856) and Invoices (810).
The system is standalone and pretty inexpensive.
I actually think that JCPs TMS process is simpler than the routing nightmare in
the past, where the routing depended on weight, and most stores had alternate
shipto codes and addresses. Now there are no decisions required. You tell JCP
what is ready to go, and they tell you how and where to ship it.
I agree that the other issues can be overwhelming.. especially with the
reduction in shipping time demanded by JCP. JIT manufacturing and JIT shipping
can result in premature gray hair.
I sometimes think that JCP would make more money by getting out of the selling
business and concentrating on their new source of revenue - chargebacks &
penaltys <bg>
