The WMS offers you an overview of all goods issues and warehouse stocks. The system supports you in
planning, monitoring, and optimizing work processes. For example, it gives you a foresighted view of the
workload in the coming days or allows you to intervene in good time during critical warehouse processes,
so that you can execute warehouse movements on time. Via the RF monitor, you get an up-to-date
picture of all of the activities in the warehouse, which means that you can control the actual work in the
warehouse using the RF monitor.

Radio Frequency Connection

In order to structure the work in the warehouse efficiently and cost-effectively, you control the warehouse
workers’ work steps clearly and simply via mobile radio-frequency terminals.

Radio frequency connection (RF connection) to mobile date entry achieves quick and flawless data
transfer. The RF machines receive data directly from the SAP system and transfer data back to the
system. Using barcodes, you can record information to be recorded and verify it. This means that you
ensure a high standard of quality in your warehouse.

Decentralized WMS

You can run the WMS as a standalone decentralized warehouse management system, independent of a
central enterprise resource planning system (ERP system). For more information, see Decentralized
Warehouse Management.

Warehouse Control

WMS also has an interface to external systems (warehouse control units), so that you can integrate
automatic putaway, stock removal systems or fork lift control systems into the warehouse management
system for all warehouse movements with the help of this ALE interface.

Warehouse Number
Definition
In Warehouse Management (WM), a complete physical warehouse is defined under a single warehouse
number. Using the warehouse number, you can manage several individual warehouse buildings that,
together, form a complete warehouse complex.

Use
The warehouse number encompasses the organizational and physical aspects of a warehousing complex
as a single concept.

For example, a unit of weight is defined at the level of the warehouse number. Furthermore, at this level,
the system determines the standard unit of measure for WM documents, and special interfaces, such as
external interfaces or interfaces between Warehouse Management (WM) and Production Planning and
Control (PP), are defined here as well. You can change these settings subsequently.
