Dock to dock, step by step.
prepCntr follows inventory the way your floor does. This page covers each stage from dock-in to dock-out, the portal your customers see, and how pricing works.
Stages 01–02 · Dock-in → Intake
Dock In & Intake
Inbound shipments are logged the moment they hit the dock, then verified and counted at intake. Every carton is tied to the customer it belongs to, so a single courier drop across several customers gets sorted correctly.
Capabilities
- Inbound shipments logged with carrier and tracking
- Customer suite numbers keep ownership unambiguous
- Counts verified at intake before anything moves
- Zone / rack / shelf / bin storage locations
Stage 03 · Unpack
Unpack & Inventory
Items are unpacked, scanned, and tagged into inventory with printed tag codes from our desktop print app. Component-level tracking means kits and bundles stay accountable down to the unit, and damaged items are recorded instead of disappearing.
Capabilities
- Tag-code barcode printing straight to your thermal printer
- Component-level inventory for kits and bundles
- Damaged-goods tracking and inventory adjustments
- Storage locations assigned as items hit the shelf
Stage 04 · Prep
Prep
Every service is priced from your pricing settings: FNSKU labeling, multipacks, combo packs, and custom instructions. The work your floor does maps directly to what you charge, and bundle recipes keep repeat builds consistent.
Capabilities
- Per-service pricing: base prep, multipack, combo pack, custom instructions
- Bundle and kit recipes for consistent repeat builds
- Priority surcharges and order minimums
- One-click FNSKU label printing
Stages 05–07 · Pack → Release → Dock-out
Pack, Release & Dock Out
Items are packed into outbound boxes with printed box labels, then pass through approval gates at pack, release, and dock-out. Admins catch mistakes before a shipment leaves the building.
Capabilities
- Box-level packing with printed box labels
- Three approval checkpoints: pack, release, dock-out
- Full order status trail from draft to docked out
- Payment status visible against every order
Portal · Your brand
The customer portal
Your customers sign in to a branded portal to see their inventory, place orders with costs shown up front, track order status, and pay online, without emailing you for updates.
Once customers manage their whole operation through your portal, they have little reason to leave.
Capabilities
- Live inventory visibility, scoped per customer
- Order placement with costs shown before submitting
- Order status tracking through every stage
- Online payment via Stripe Checkout
Pricing engine
Per-service pricing
Set a price for every service you offer: base prep, multipacks, combo packs, custom instructions, pack-and-ship, priority handling, and order minimums. Volume tiers assign automatically from each customer's average monthly volume over the last twelve months.
Customers pay by card on your own Stripe account, and funds settle directly to you. Recurring subscriptions are also supported.
Capabilities
- Per-service pricing settings
- Automatic volume tiers from 12-month average volume
- Stripe Checkout on your own Stripe account
- Optional recurring customer subscriptions

- White-label logo and branding
- Tenant data isolation
