2021: Support of scanning of codes of goods marking for online stores and distributors
On February 9, 2021 it became known that mobile application of ANTOR is supported by scanning of codes of goods marking for online stores and distributors.
As it was explained, in mobile application of ANTOR TeamMaster there is now an opportunity to work with goods marking. The preliminary release of the version took place in December, 2020. Pilot projects passed on platforms of 2 clients of ANTOR: for acceptance of payment for goods couriers of online stores carried out scanning of codes of marking "The fair sign" in the application.

On the company of the sphere e-Commerce responsibility for a correct design of leaving of products from turnover at sale lays down.
Some of the first sellers of goods of light industry faced difficulties of transition to a system at remote trade: it is necessary to work with marking to online stores of clothes and textiles for the house. Prohibition on turnover of unmarked products for them became effective since January 01, 2021.
Marking of dairy products for the beginning of 2021 only came out an experiment stage. To distributors and online stores "Fair Sign" gives about a year more on preparation before other owner or his leaving from turnover needs to fix transfer of goods with marking.
Information on sale of each unit of production should come through online cash desk to FTS and the Fair Sign system. At shipment of goods in a logistics chain it is important to intermediary to consider and transfer the code to the accounting system of the supplier at the time of change of the owner. Therefore for online stores, transport companies and other participants of distribution which need to work with the Fair sign already soon, an opportunity to automate scanning of codes of goods marking – beforehand to implement the application of acceptance of payment (54-FZ) and/or operational management of delivery.
All these processes can be joint in one solution, allowing to observe requirements of the law, to reduce holding time of clients and to adjust transparent process of control of delivery.
The experiment on implementation of "The fair sign" for February, 2021 takes place for 4 commodity groups, including water and beer. The operator of a system does not exclude that the list of the categories getting under control will extend soon. In particular, the prospects of fight against a counterfeit in the furniture market are already discussed.
The solution is integrated with the accounting system of the Customer. Tasks for delivery are unloaded in mobile application of the driver or separately, or in the form of already created optimized routes (creation of delivery routes is possible in the ANTOR LogisticsMaster program).
The driver or the courier follows on route according to order of visit of clients and time frames of delivery. To pass for payment, it needs to execute scanning of the code of marking.
At transaction data through online cash desk are transferred to FTS, and the status of a task in the application changes on "Is executed". The manager of delivery sees actually sold nomenclature and a sales amount.
