DPS developed an inventory tracking solution using Power Apps and AI Builder. This system allows DPS to scan invoices from vendors to capture serial numbers, descriptions, SKUs, and PO numbers. The scanned data is then matched with delivery tables and moved to an inventory table. If there are discrepancies, the items go into an exceptions table for further review. The new system is expected to significantly reduce the time required for inventory processing. Previously, scanning and verifying a large shipment could take an entire day. With the new system, the same task can be completed in approximately 3.5 hours, reducing the workload and minimizing human error.
