Next-Level Optimized Receiving with Intelligent Automated Decision-Making
Designed to enhance warehouse receiving operations, SMART Receive™ serves as the primary point of contact for incoming mobile devices, swiftly capturing crucial IMEI-level information, enabling immediate data-clearing and seamless integration with the customer's system. The solution automates critical tasks, and ensures enhanced security checks and dynamic routing for processing.

Behind the scenes, A.I.-driven decision-making integrated with FutureDial’s Decision Manager™ technology can optimize intake processing of mobile devices in warehouses and processing centers. Customizable business rules for specific business goals deftly executes critical decision management functions for handling processes, ensuring a streamlined and efficient workflow.

With its intelligent decision-making, SMART Receive™ seamlessly handles various use cases, such as the following:

  • Dynamically assigning device quality grades based on device condition and/or user inputs.
  • Flexibly allocating a device workflow (test profile) based on device condition and/or user input.
  • Productively designates a shipment workflow based on user input.
  • Automatically assigning a manual entry profile based on user input.
  • Queries the ASN record of a specific IMEI which can then be saved to the device record and used for additional decision logic.
  • Within a device workflow (test profile), makes a real-time decision point based on the device’s condition that can then be used to dynamically change the remaining test flow.
