Run your packhouse on one record, from receival to dispatch
Traceability and one-tap recall, live packout, quality holds, a grower portal, and dispatch with labels, all built on the same lot-level record.
Most packhouses still run on notebooks, spreadsheets and re-typed labels, and every re-key is a gap in the record when a customer or an auditor calls. Fernable keeps one record per lot, from the grower block it came off to the customer who received it, so receiving, packing, quality and dispatch all write to the same trail.
Know your packout % before the line stops
A pack run turns input lots into graded output plus a waste record, so your packout percentage is calculated live as fruit comes off the line.
- See yield by grade before the shift ends
- Input, good output and waste always reconcile
- Mixed-grower runs split packout pro-rata, fairly
Bad fruit stays put until someone signs for it
Record QC checks with photos at receival and dispatch, and let a failed check hold the lot so it cannot slip onto a pallet.
- Failed checks flag the lot before packers build a pallet
- Hard blocks keep unshippable stock out of dispatch
- Every override records the manager and the reason
Trace any lot in seconds, recall it in one tap
Every lot links backward to its grower block and receival, and forward through pack runs, pallets and dispatches to the customer who received it.
- One lot code finds every affected lot, repacks included
- PDF recall notice and CSV in one tap
- Hold every affected lot in a single action
Labels that scan straight back to the lot
Build pallets from your packed lots, print pallet and carton labels with a QR on every one, and hand the customer a dispatch docket.
- Held lots stay out of the pallet picker automatically
- The label always matches what's inside the carton
- Cost of goods snapshotted at dispatch, margins hold
Show each grower their own packout, nobody else's
Send every grower a private portal link they open on any phone to see only their deliveries and their packout by grade, no login, no spreadsheet.
- Token-scoped link, no login and no app to install
- Packout by grade, split pro rata across mixed runs
- Their fruit only: no costs, prices, or other growers
