In today’s fast-moving logistics world, success depends on visibility, efficiency, and adaptability. Third-party logistics (3PL) providers, public warehouses, and cold storage operators face growing pressure to deliver faster, more accurate, and more connected operations, all while managing increasing complexity and client expectations.

That’s where our flagship 3PL software ViewPoint Logistics™ (VPL) comes in.

For over 60 years, VPL has helped logistics companies simplify operations, automate workflows, and gain real-time control of their warehouse and transportation activities, all through one powerful, browser-based platform.

One Platform, Endless Visibility

At its core, ViewPoint Logistics™ unites Warehouse Management (WMS), Transportation Management (TMS), Billing, and eCommerce Integration in a single system built specifically for 3PLs.

From receiving to reporting, every action is tracked, connected, and accessible, giving you visibility from dock to desktop.

Our powerful combination of BIRT Reporting and HighViews puts real-time data at your fingertips. Build custom reports, track KPIs, share insights automatically, and visualize performance trends.

With VPL, data becomes actionable intelligence.

Built for the Way 3PL Warehouses Work

Every warehouse operates differently which is why VPL is built with flexibility at its foundation.

Whether you manage inbound receipts manually or through RF scanning, VPL adapts to your operation.
Our RF functionality supports major barcode symbologies (UCC, GS1-128, API) and captures product, lot, and date information in a single scan, reducing errors and saving valuable time.

You can even mix manual and automated workflows, giving your operators the freedom to work efficiently while maintaining data integrity across the system.

End-to-End Traceability with Conveyance Tracking

Traceability is non-negotiable in modern warehousing especially for temperature-controlled and regulated environments.

VPL’s Conveyance Tracking captures every movement of your inventory from inbound pallets to outbound shipments. Each SKU, lot, and conveyance is tracked for complete visibility and auditability. Even partial pallet picks maintain traceability, ensuring accuracy at every stage of fulfillment.

Billing Automation That Works the Way You Do

3PL billing can be complex, but it doesn’t have to be.

VPL automates daily, weekly, or monthly billing cycles, with options for square-foot, metric-tonne, or unitary billing. You can generate a single summary invoice that includes all warehouse and accessorial charges, automatically tied to your financial month for revenue recognition and deferrals.

The result?

  • Less manual work.
  • Fewer missed charges.
  • And faster, more accurate billing.

Labor Management & Performance Insights

Your people are your most valuable asset, and VPL helps you make every hour count.

Our Labor Management tools track both direct and indirect activities, linking time spent to specific transactions like orders, receipts, and counts. Real-time visibility lets you measure productivity, identify bottlenecks, and optimize staffing.

As your operations evolve, VPL integrates seamlessly with leading labor analytics platforms such as Easy Metrics and Argent Labor Management, giving you the flexibility to scale visibility as your business grows.

Smarter Dock Scheduling & Appointment Control

Inbound congestion is one of the biggest pain points for warehouse teams.
VPL’s Appointment Log simplifies dock scheduling with live door allocation, timestamp tracking, and gatehouse check-in management.

This not only keeps your yard flowing but also enhances driver satisfaction and on-time performance that is essential for customer trust and retention.

Powerful Reporting and Business Intelligence

Decision-making is faster when insights are at your fingertips.
VPL’s HighViews and BIRT Reports give you instant access to real-time data on inventory levels, order status, billing summaries, and performance metrics.

Operators can export, filter, and analyze data without needing IT or custom development.
For advanced users, VPL connects with tools like Crystal Reports or Microsoft Report Builder via ODBC, giving your team full control over data visualization and KPIs.

Document Management & Paperless Workflows

VPL’s integrated eDocs Suite, featuring DocStore, DocScan, AutoEmailing, and Signature Capture, replaces manual filing with complete automation.
Invoices, shipping documents, and receipts are automatically stored, linked, and emailed, keeping your operation fully paperless and audit-ready.

eCommerce & EDI Integration Made Simple

Whether you process high-volume B2B orders or thousands of eCommerce parcels, VPL integrates seamlessly with your digital ecosystem.
From EDI transactions to real-time webstore and carrier connections (UPS, FedEx, EasyPost), our system automates order import, cartonization, label generation, and shipment tracking.

That means faster fulfillment, lower freight costs, and happier customers.

Smarter Warehouse Intelligence: Directed Putaway & Replenishment

VPL optimizes every inch of your warehouse.
Our Directed Putaway feature considers velocity, storage dimensions, zones, and commingling rules to ensure each item is stored in the most efficient location.
Combine that with automated or manual replenishment logic, and you’ll keep pick lines full while maintaining optimal inventory balance across the facility.

Value-Added Services Included

Your business goes beyond storage and so does ours in supporting you to succeed.
VPL supports kitting, assembly, disassembly, and relabeling directly within your warehouse workflows, ensuring value-added services are tracked, billed, and visible.

Future-Ready Automation

Automation isn’t a luxury anymore, it’s a necessity.
ViewPoint Logistics™ is ready for what’s next with integrations for wave picking, cartonization, and material handling systems.
Whether you’re scaling to multiple sites or introducing robotics, VPL grows with you.

What sets ViewPoint Logistics™ apart isn’t just technology, it’s partnership.

Every client is paired with a dedicated Business Support Representative (BSR) who understands their business, operations, and goals. From onboarding to optimization, we work alongside you to ensure the system evolves with your needs.
