Flow of Information

Receiving
• Accelerate receiving process by
– Identify inventory and improve tracking
– Identify with our without In bound Order
numbers
– Associate with ASN
– Preassigned Tags or container labels

Advance Shipment Notification
• ASN
– Received through EDI, Webservice, ERP integration
– Details of the shipment to the customer
• PO Numbers
• SKUs, Quantity
– Lot Numbers
• Pallet /Container Numbers
• Carton Numbers
– Verification of the ASN with actual receipts
– Handling Shortages and breakages

License Plate Number
• Unique Identification and locator
• Single LPN for a group of Items
• Primary identifier to locate the inventory
across the warehouse
• Increases receipt throughput and traceability

LPN Process

Inventory Hold
• Inventory “hold” – Special Handling
– Seamless integration with QA and QC of ERP
module
– Based on the rules defined in the ERP, the
material is under “Hold” for QC or identified for
special handling

Put Away Inbound
• Put Away
– Move from Staging area to final location
– Location is decided based on
• Product Velocity – Fast moving , Slow moving
• Storage constraints – Size, Weight, Hazardous, Climatic
control
• Other user defined parameters
– System suggest put- away sequence for an optimized
travel path
– Put away confirmation by the operator
• “To LPN” if drop in another LPN
– Cross docking of materials

Release “Hold”

Wave Planning

Wave Planning
• Breakdown and pool orders
– To manage and optimize
– Picking
– Packing
– Replenishments
– Shipping activities
• Create Batch or “Wave” of orders
– Optimize quantity to be picked from each zone to
fulfill a “wave”

Wave Planning- Pick and Pack Orders
• Pick Wave created based on
– Mode of transportation
– Weight, Volume
– LTL, FL
– Customer Specifications
– Shipment time restrictions
– Order Prioritization
• Pick “from” drop “to” tasks identified
• Fulfillment of order
– Full LPN, Partial LPN
– Cases
– Loose packs in “active” zone

Wave Planning- Pick and Pack Orders
• Pack wave
– Subtype of Pick wave
– Honor material handling constraints
– Create smaller Pack waves to meet material
handling constraints

Wave Planning- Replishment Orders
• Created after processing “pick” material
requirement
• Create orders to move goods from “Bulk” to
forward pick locations
• Activity can run parallel to pick and pack
activity

Wave process
• Create a Wave
– Select the criteria for orders to participate in the
wave
• Customer, time, shipment etc
• Planning a wave
– Check for resources
– Items, Labor, material handling equipment
• Releasing a wave
– On release the resources are allocated against the
wave.

Cycle Count
• Random Counts
– Creation of Random cycle count order
– Based on ABC classification and frequency of cycle

Cycle Count
• “Zero” Confirmations
– Performed during day- to day operations
– Creates cycle count order if “zero” inventory was
recorded – previous day / shift
– Process similar to random count
