EPG ONE WMS Specialist Courses – VAS and Service Orders

VAS and Service Orders

Learn how to configure and execute Value Added Services (VAS) in LFS as part of your inbound and outbound flows. Based on the LFS Foundation and Key User outlines, this course focuses on how VAS is set up, triggered, and processed in combination with putaway, picking, packing, and shipping so you can reliably implement customer‑specific service steps in the warehouse. 

Who This Course Is For:

  • LFS key users responsible for process and master data setup 
  • Warehouse and logistics supervisors managing customer‑specific services 
  • Operations staff involved in performing VAS on the shop floor 
  • IT / support staff who assist with configuration and troubleshooting around VAS 

What You’ll Learn

Understand the role of VAS in the overall LFS process landscape (inbound, outbound, QA, packing, shipping) 

Configure the necessary master data and keys for VAS (e.g. item/transaction attributes, VAS definitions, links to QA/packing) 

Integrate VAS into putaway and picking flows, including when VAS is triggered and how it appears in work packages and lists

Execute VAS steps in daily operations (e.g. relabeling, repacking, kitting, quality‑related services) and document the results in LFS 

Evaluate and monitor VAS activities to ensure quality, transparency, and correct downstream handling (e.g. packing, shipping, billing if applicable) 

Identify and resolve common configuration and process issues related to VAS 

Built for Smarter, Faster Shipping Operations
