American Leather Ensures On-Time Delivery With Cognitive Solutions

With Cognitive's solution, American Leather can quickly and cost-effectively create material labels for its inventory items. The company is using its Cognitive XML-enabled system to produce 100 material labels per day. To assist with the tracking of product through the production cycle, American Leather is also using Cognitive's Advantage LX series printers to produce another 600 labels per day.

Seamlessly integrated with Oracle systems, Cognitive's XML-enabled printers have a direct connection for bar code label printing with no additional middleware or programming required. With no gaps or kinks in the system, American Leather products are delivered to customers and retail outlets such as Pottery Barn, Crate & Barrel and Macy's on time and as expected. With the success of Cognitive's XML-enabled printers, American Leather hopes to expand its adoption of Cognitive printers in the fall. McCoy and his team plan to use the Cognitive Solutions line to print barcode labels for its in-depth production process, shipping and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) transactions.
