Improve the utilization of inventory space, reduce the cost of logistics operations, and reduce labor costs. As more and more companies move towards the road of "Industry 4.0", WMS systems are widely used.
The full name of the WMS system is Warehouse Management System, which uses Internet of Things, big data and other technologies to realize intelligent warehouse management, systematic warehouse management, transparent material preparation management, and refine the operation process in the warehouse for enterprises with multiple goods and multiple warehouses. However, the introduction of WMS system should not be careless, and how to make full use of it is the focus of many enterprises.
Next, Xiaozhi will tell you about the wave management of the WMS system.
Wave management is a method to improve the efficiency of picking operations. It combines different orders into one wave according to certain standards to guide one picking. It can be directly understood as wave management is to classify orders. The role of wave management is to facilitate users to choose the preferred picking mode based on the analysis results and improve the efficiency of order processing.
Its characteristics include but are not limited to the generation time of the outbound order, the urgency of the outbound order, the timeliness requirement for the outbound order, the owner, the type of the outbound order, the location of the customer to which the order belongs, the transportation route corresponding to the order, and so on.
The steps to create a policy for wave management are:
1. First select the strategy attribute, and filter orders according to certain strategy attributes;
2. Analyze the selected orders to determine the number of waves (analysis factors include order confirmation, whether there are enough on-site operators, etc.);
3. Generate a wave, and select a suitable time to issue the wave according to the on-site operation situation. This involves the principle of wave classification. Wave classification is generally determined by order quantity, delivery route, time window, etc., and executives can pick goods according to the issued waves.
The response to a wave build error is:
1. When the wave has not been issued, it can be deleted and then re-established;
2. During the execution process, functions can be designed in the system to return wrong orders to the warehouse.
The HSWMS warehouse management system uses the Internet of Things, big data and other technologies to realize intelligent warehouse management, systematic warehouse management, transparent material preparation management, and refine the operation process in the warehouse for enterprises with multiple goods and multiple warehouses.
The system supports the individual needs of enterprises with multi-format, multi-mode, and multi-warehouses, automatically collects and analyzes data information, seamlessly connects upstream and downstream software, provides managers with complete storage information, improves inventory turnover efficiency, improves inventory accuracy, and optimizes Warehouse operation standards to create a real-time, transparent, and visualized warehouse management system.
