Welcome to GelatoConnect, a versatile SaaS platform designed to empower Print Service Providers (PSPs) in managing their print production workflows efficiently. GelatoConnect serves as your central hub for handling orders from all your customer sources, streamlining operations from intake to shipment.
Whether you receive orders directly from clients, through e-commerce integrations, via API connections, or through the Gelato Network (if you are a partner), GelatoConnect provides the tools to manage them effectively within a single, unified system.
Here's an overview of the GelatoConnect platform and how its three core modules work together:
Understanding GelatoConnect Procurement
GelatoConnect Procurement is a single platform for print producers to manage purchasing, inventory management, and warehousing.
GCP's Key Functionalities to Highlight:
Purchasing: Manage all your orders and stock from one platform. Place orders and track the inbound status for your own existing suppliers, or use Gelato’s pre-integrated supplier network. This system replaces email/phone call ordering, allowing for tracking and insights via mobile app and desktop. The purchasing flow is streamlined for a seamless experience, similar to e-commerce.
Inventory Management: Prevent out-of-stock and excess-stock situations with an inventory management system tailored for print operations. Replenishment is automated based on stock levels, and the system updates inventory when orders are received or consumed in production. All of this is easily managed through a mobile app.
Warehousing: From shelf to shipment - Optimize warehouse operations and know exactly where your stock is. Streamline your warehouse operations with precision and speed, and use our mobile app scanning capabilities to keep stock positions updated throughout the production day. The Warehousing feature boosts productivity by tracking inventory transfers within warehouse locations.
