WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

Information about the program;

Warehouse management systems should have replenishment and automatic product placement functions to create operational efficiency. The replenishment system increases product picking efficiency by allowing a minimum level of stock in the picking compartment. However, if the product picking algorithm is modeled correctly within the warehouse management system, the product pickers take the shortest path and perform the product collection activity.

The automatic product placement activity, on the other hand, allows the products to be stored in the near and far shelves according to the past movement of the products in the warehouse.

The use of replenishment and automatic product placement functions should be considered to achieve operational excellence in warehouses.

In the new generation warehouse management systems, product performances are monitored and measured on the basis of process and warehouse personnel. These measurements are important in terms of operational management as they allow the work performance of warehouse personnel to be measured.

With the use of warehouse management systems, it is possible to measure process, product and personnel performances in warehouse operations according to real data, to establish and manage an effective product management system.

Ensuring traceability in warehouse management systems is possible by managing the movements of the product in the warehouse in relation to the 1D or 2D barcode that will be newly created on the product or added previously. Products entering the warehouse are subjected to warehouse acceptance by producing product labels with barcodes that provide specific and descriptive information.
