Boost Security with ShipWorks’ Scan-to-Ship User Type
ShipWorks is excited to introduce a major update that boosts security and compliance for businesses. The new Scan-to-Ship restricted user type in ShipWorks version 12 allows administrators to create accounts with limited access for Scan-to-Ship (S2S) tasks. Now, only authorized staff can view and manage sensitive data for multiple orders, markedly improving data protection.
Why the Scan-to-Ship User Type is Important
The new S2S restricted user type greatly improves security. This feature ensures that only essential personnel can access sensitive data. Unauthorized users cannot view or export this information. By restricting access, businesses can better secure their operations and maintain accuracy, especially with strict shipping requirements.
Explore Scan-to-Ship Features
The Scan-to-Ship system has two main components: the “Scan” tab and the “Ship” tab. Firstly, the “Scan” tab lets users verify items by scanning barcodes as they are packed. This feature is optional and can be adjusted to fit your needs. Secondly, the “Ship” tab helps with printing shipping labels. All ShipWorks plans include the “Ship” tab, but only Warehouse level plans offer the item verification in the “Scan” tab.
Supporting High Compliance Needs
ShipWorks helps businesses meet high compliance standards with the Scan-to-Ship user type. Our system provides strong security specifically with user audit features and by running on a Windows-based platform with a local Microsoft SQL Server database. This setup ensures reliable and secure operations for important tasks.
The Scan-to-Ship restricted user type is particularly beneficial for a wide range of industries. Healthcare providers and facilities, such as hospitals and medical laboratories, need secure shipping for patient information and medical supplies. Pharmaceuticals and biotech companies require protection for sensitive materials and intellectual property. Logistics and supply chain companies, including 3PLs and freight forwarders, benefit from secure handling of client data. Government agencies, at all levels, requiring secure solutions for confidential documents and equipment. Educational institutions, such as universities, must protect academic records and research materials. Defense and aerospace contractors need robust security for military equipment and classified documents.
