Traditional warehouse management is result-oriented, and the process is often a black hole. Some people even think that the meat is rotten in the pot anyway. As long as things are not lost, the material management process cannot be made clear, and there is no need to make it clear. Therefore, the traditional warehouse management only depends on the memory and manual entry of the warehouse manager's brain. This method is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also error-prone. In case of quality problems downstream, it is even more difficult to imagine finding the reasons and responsibilities in piles of paper documents.

Small bar code to solve the big problem of warehouse management

A company is a typical example, it is a fast-growing manufacturing enterprise, in the warehouse management has encountered such confusion. However, Company A successfully solved this problem by using barcode warehouse management.

Manual management leads to increased stress and risk

Company A has more than 3000 kinds of raw materials and more than 300 kinds of finished products, which are managed by 7 warehouse managers in different areas. After receiving the materials, the material information is marked with half A4 paper. When entering and leaving the warehouse, the material card is registered, the material list is filled in, and then entered into the EXCEL electronic form of the computer.

With the expansion of the company's scale and the increase in the number of materials, the pressure and risks of company a's logistics management are increasing day by day. the main manifestations are: since the warehouse does not use any storage logistics software, all material records are manually registered with the name, quantity, specification, date of entry and exit of materials and other information. the workload of manual recording is very large, and the timeliness and accuracy of data completely depend on the work responsibility of the warehouse administrator.

Furthermore, Company A's customers basically use bar code warehouse management thldl.org.cn system to manage materials, which requires Company A to print and paste bar code labels according to customer requirements before delivery. Manual recording of data and label printing is not only inefficient, there are hidden dangers of errors, but also for the company is not value-added activities, and to a certain extent, affect customer relationship management.

In this case, Company A decided to adopt barcode warehouse management in warehouse management, including the following aspects: fully implement barcode automatic management for raw materials, semi-finished products, finished products, etc., manage warehousing, outbound, allocation, transfer, inventory and other businesses, and improve the management level; Purchase barcode scanning guns and barcode printing equipment, print box labels and various business documents, and improve the efficiency and precision of warehousing and warehousing operations; transform the existing local area network, build WLAN, connect the server of bar code management system, computer, bar code scanning gun, printing terminal, etc. through LAN and WLAN, and then import it into ERP system through interface program, so that it can process various tasks in real time.

After the first ERP bar code, step by step implementation

The combination of barcode technology and ERP software can truly achieve the timeliness, accuracy and traceability of data collection. Since bar code implementation requires a clear business process, Company A, after careful consideration, decided to implement ERP before bar code. Through business process combing optimization and data correction during ERP implementation, it paves the way for barcode import. On the other hand, in the implementation and use of ERP, a large number of document data are required. Automatic barcode identification and entry replace manual entry, which also provides a strong guarantee for the smooth operation of ERP system.

The effect manifests quickly. Quasi. Province.

Simply put, the advantages of the barcode warehouse management system are reflected in the three words "fast", "quasi" and "province. The essence of barcode warehouse management is process management, the process is fine and controllable, and the result is naturally correct and effective. Barcode warehouse management has brought great benefits to A company's logistics management, mainly in:

1, to achieve material positioning, quantitative management;

2, control of raw materials first-in-first-out, to avoid human error;

3, strictly implement the quota picking, put an end to waste;

4, real-time control of inventory data, reasonable maintenance and control of enterprise inventory, improve work efficiency and work quality;

5. Through the automatic collection of material batch information, the traceability of the product production process is realized.

More importantly, bar code warehouse management to promote the transformation of A company management mode, from the traditional relying on experience management to rely on accurate digital analysis management, after management into management, real-time management, accelerate the capital turnover, improve the supply chain response speed, which will enhance the overall competitiveness of the company.
