DMLogic Releases New Version of Software Development Platform

STEPLogic 6 to offer more sophisticated reporting and app building functionality.

DMLogic LLC, a warehouse management systems (WMS) software and implementation provider, has released the newest version of its software development platform. STEPLogic 6 will continue to offer customers the ability to easily configure, customize and enhance their existing WMS, and has now expanded its reporting and building structure while greatly enhancing the user experience including more intuitive search capabilities. STEPLogic facilitates the development of customer apps that are made easy by the utilities and automated tools built into the system.

STEPLogic 6's new features include:


  • Chart Builder, a graphical information system which enables customers to create personalized representations of operations data for visibility to performance;
  • Multiple language support, where users can personalize and display multiple languages based on user profiles;
  • Reports Scheduler, which enables users to combine personalized reports with email to route reports to pertinent staff; and
  • Intuitive search capabilities allowing users to locate data within the database faster and easier.

The core of STEPLogic is the Process Builder and the Screen Builder. The new release of STEPLogic 6 includes a multitude of enhancements to the functionality of both to further extend their capabilities and improve the user experience.

"The release of STEPLogic 6 takes our dynamic user interface and offers users an even higher level of reporting and process building," said Lynn Dermott, vice president, product development at DMLogic, said in a statement. "Giving the user an expanded process for performance visibility and reporting will allow for greater productivity and efficiency. And adding multiple language support will allow global companies to utilize the strength of STEPLogic's customization capabilities across the supply chain, again increasing visibility and overall performance."

STEPLogic's powerful software development platform was utilized to develop two new standalone products released in early 2017 which will also be enhanced with this new version.

  • STEPLogic Trace is a comprehensive, federally-compliant serialization solution that supports end-to-end tracking within the distribution center. In compliance with the Drug Supply Chain Safety Act, the product meets requirements that manufacturers, distributors and retailers must be able to track, trace and report on the movement of prescription drugs and medical devices, throughout the supply chain.
  • STEPLogic Warehouse is a feature-rich WMS designed and priced to support small to medium businesses. The first-of-its-kind, this app-based product enables users to fully customize their WMS by choosing core apps which can be modified or by building new apps quickly to meet business requirements. The complete suite of apps includes every step of traditional warehouse management system.

"With our enhanced user interface and graphic visualizer tool, the user has the ability to actually illustrate their new processes and easily capture messaging and reporting that will help reduce the time take to find inefficiencies in their warehouse," said Robert Kennedy, vice president, business development, DMLogic, in a statement released yesterday. "The enhancements to STEPLogic 6 are further extending the level of sophistication and power of the core solution but also our entire STEPLogic product suite will benefit from enhanced reporting and process building."

STEPLogic tracks, documents and catalogs customer specific SQL reports and provides user-friendly mapping of interfaces between host systems and the WMS.

From pingpong diplomacy to supply chain diplomacy?

There’s a photo from 1971 that John Kent, professor of supply chain management at the University of Arkansas, likes to show. It’s of a shaggy-haired 18-year-old named Glenn Cowan grinning at three-time world table tennis champion Zhuang Zedong, while holding a silk tapestry Zhuang had just given him. Cowan was a member of the U.S. table tennis team who participated in the 1971 World Table Tennis Championships in Nagoya, Japan. Story has it that one morning, he overslept and missed his bus to the tournament and had to hitch a ride with the Chinese national team and met and connected with Zhuang.

Cowan and Zhuang’s interaction led to an invitation for the U.S. team to visit China. At the time, the two countries were just beginning to emerge from a 20-year period of decidedly frosty relations, strict travel bans, and trade restrictions. The highly publicized trip signaled a willingness on both sides to renew relations and launched the term “pingpong diplomacy.”

California moves a step closer to requiring EV sales only by 2035

Federal regulators today gave California a green light to tackle the remaining steps to finalize its plan to gradually shift new car sales in the state by 2035 to only zero-emissions models — meaning battery-electric, hydrogen fuel cell, and plug-in hybrid cars — known as the Advanced Clean Cars II Rule.

In a separate move, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also gave its approval for the state to advance its Heavy-Duty Omnibus Rule, which is crafted to significantly reduce smog-forming nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from new heavy-duty, diesel-powered trucks.
