Project Progress

Clear mechanisms of inventory of cells, control of selection processes and order processing according to their statuses are implemented

Warehouse cargo processing of furniture requires specific implementation. The main feature is that each commodity unit represents a set from several packagings differing on mass and dimensional to characteristics. Therefore in a warehouse account and cargo processing by components of sets is kept (for example, different parts are stored in different cells: table legs – in one cell, a table-top – in another) while the corporate system ("1C: Trade Management") and an accounting system consider in work a set as a unit.

Project tasks included creation of mechanisms of address accounting and storage according to features of goods. It was required:

• ensure transparent functioning in a warehouse,
• reduce dependence of a warehouse on knowledge of employees,
• organize accounting on batches
• develop an algorithm of simple process of reconciliation of a remaining balance of a warehouse with data of a corporate system, having taken into account specifics of storage of furniture products, for example, interchangeability of components between different goods.

Convenient and clear mechanisms of inventory of cells, control of selection processes and order processing according to their statuses were required for the customer. In addition - accounting of characteristics of packagings of Inventories (dimensions, stacking height, etc.).
