SAMS - Shipment Administration and Management System   is a client/server facility designed for streamlined control of small packages and letters within a facility or organization. The system maintains a database which is used by the shipping department to plan the preparation of the shipments, manifesting, and carrier pick up. Authorized individuals record the request for shipment and identify the receiving party and proper expense authorization.   Each shipment is issued an authorization control number. Throughout the day the shipping department can schedule pick up of the requests and print the necessary shipping documents which are matched to the requests.    The system guarantees that only properly documented requests are shipped.

SAMS maintains the shipping information in an operational database and will issue daily manifests for UPS/RPS, FedEx, DHl, and other carriers. After shipment is accomplished the data is retained in the distribution database.   A fully costed and allocated shipment is also transferred to the   TIM2 (Transportation Information Management 2) system for accruals, audit service guarantee audit, and payment of the freight invoice.
