Warehouse Management Systems (WMS).
The evolution of warehouse management systems
(WMS) is very similar to that of many
other
software solutions. Initially a system to control
movement and storage of materials within
a
warehouse, the role of WMS is expanding to
including light manufacturing, transportation
management, order management, and complete
accounting systems. To use the grandfather of
operations-related software, MRP, as a
comparison, material requirements planning (MRP)
started as a system for planning raw material
requirements in a manufacturing environment.
Soon MRP evolved into manufacturing resource
planning (MRPII), which took the basic MRP
system and added scheduling and capacity
planning logic. Eventually MRPII evolved into
enterprise resource planning (ERP),
incorporating all the MRPII functionality with
full financials
and customer and vendor
management functionality. Now, whether WMS
evolving into a
warehouse-focused ERP system
is a good thing or not is up to debate. What is
clear is that the
expansion of the overlap in
functionality between Warehouse Management
Systems, Enterprise
Resource Planning,
Distribution Requirements Planning, Transportation
Management Systems,
Supply Chain Planning,
Advanced Planning and Scheduling, and
Manufacturing Execution
Systems will only
increase the level of confusion among companies
looking for software
solutions for their
operations.
Even though WMS continues to gain
added functionality, the initial core
functionality of a
WMS has not really changed.
The primary purpose of a WMS is to control the
movement and
storage of materials within an
operation and process the associated transactions.
Directed
picking, directed replenishment, and
directed put away are the key to WMS. The
detailed setup
and processing within a WMS can
vary significantly from one software vendor to
another,
however the basic logic will use a
combination of item, location, quantity, unit of
measure, and
order information to determine
where to stock, where to pick, and in what
sequence to perform
these operations.
At
a bare minimum, a WMS should:
Have a flexible
location system.
Utilize user-defined
parameters to direct warehouse tasks and use live
documents to execute these tasks.
Have
some built-in level of integration with data
collection devices.
1
Do You
Really Need WMS?
Not every warehouse needs a
WMS. Certainly any warehouse could benefit from
some of
the functionality but is the benefit
great enough to justify the initial and ongoing
costs associated
with WMS? Warehouse
Management Systems are big, complex, data
intensive, applications.
They tend to require
a lot of initial setup, a lot of system resources
to run, and a lot of ongoing
data management
to continue to run. That’s right, you need to
Often times, large operations will end up
creating a new IS department
with the sole
responsibility of managing the WMS.
The
Claims:
WMS will reduce inventory!
WMS
will reduce labor costs!
WMS will increase
storage capacity!
WMS will increase customer
service!
WMS will increase inventory
accuracy!
The Reality:
The
implementation of a WMS along with automated data
collection will likely give you
increases in
accuracy, reduction in labor costs (provided the
labor required to maintain the
system is less
than the labor saved on the warehouse floor), and
a greater ability to service the
customer by
reducing cycle times. Expectations of inventory
reduction and increased storage
capacity are
less likely. While increased accuracy and
efficiencies in the receiving process may
reduce the level of safety stock required, the
impact of this reduction will likely be negligible
in
comparison to overall inventory levels. The
predominant factors that control inventory levels
are
lot sizing, lead times, and demand
variability. It is unlikely that a WMS will have
a significant
impact on any of these factors.
And while a WMS certainly provides the tools for
more
organized storage which may result in
increased storage capacity, this improvement will
be
relative to just how sloppy your pre-WMS
processes were.
Beyond labor efficiencies,
the determining factors in deciding to implement a
WMS tend to
be more often associated with the
need to do something to service your customers
that your
current system does not support (or
does not support well) such as first-in-first-out,
cross-docking, automated pick replenishment,
wave picking, lot tracking, yard management,
automated data collection, automated material
handling equipment, etc.
2
Setup
The setup requirements of WMS can
be extensive. The characteristics of each item and
location must be maintained either at the
detail level or by grouping similar items and
locations
into categories. An example of item
characteristics at the detail level would include
exact
dimensions and weight of each item in
each unit of measure the item is stocked (each,
cases,
pallets, etc) as well as information
such as whether it can be mixed with other items
in a location,
whether it is rack able, max
stack height, max quantity per location, hazard
classifications,
finished goods or raw
material, fast versus slow mover, etc. Although
some operations will
need to set up each item
this way, most operations will benefit by creating
groups of similar
products. For example, if
you are a distributor of music CDs you would
create groups for
single CDs, and double CDs,
maintaining the detailed dimension and weight
information at the
group level and only
needing to attach the group code to each item.
You would likely need to
maintain detailed
information on special items such as boxed sets or
CDs in special packaging.
You would also
create groups for the different types of locations
within your warehouse. An
example would be to
create three different groups (P1, P2, P3) for the
three different sized
forward picking
locations you use for your CD picking. You then
set up the quantity of single
CDs that will
fit in a P1, P2, and P3 location, quantity of
double CDs that fit in a P1, P2, P3
location
etc. You would likely also be setting up case
quantities, and pallet quantities of each
CD
group and quantities of cases and pallets per each
reserve storage location group.
If this
sounds simple, it is…well… sort of. In reality
most operations have a much more
diverse
product mix and will require much more system
setup. And setting up the physical
characteristics of the product and locations
is only part of the picture. You have set up
enough
so that the system knows where a
product can fit and how many will fit in that
location. You
now need to set up the
information needed to let the system decide
exactly which location to pick
from, replenish
fromto, and put away to, and in what sequence
these events should occur
(remember WMS is all
about “directed” movement). You do this by
assigning specific logic to
the various
combinations of itemorderquantitylocation
information that will occur.
Below I have
listed some of the logic used in determining
actual locations and sequences.
Location
Sequence. This is the simplest logic; you simply
define a flow through your
warehouse and
assign a sequence number to each location. In
order picking this is used to
sequence your
picks to flow through the warehouse, in put away
the logic would look for the
first location in
the sequence in which the product would fit.
Zone Logic. By breaking down your storage
locations into zones you can direct picking,
3
put away, or replenishment to
or from specific areas of your warehouse. Since
zone logic only
designates an area, you will
need to combine this with some other type of logic
to determine
exact location within the zone.
Fixed Location. Logic uses predetermined
fixed locations per item in picking, put away,
and replenishment. Fixed locations are most
often used as the primary picking location in
piece
pick and case-pick operations, however,
they can also be used for secondary storage.
Random Location. Since computers cannot be
truly random (nor would you want them
to be)
the term random location is a little misleading.
Random locations generally refer to areas
where products are not stored in designated
fixed locations. Like zone logic, you will need
some additional logic to determine exact
locations.
First-in-first-out (FIFO).
Directs picking from the oldest inventory first.
Last-in-first-out (LIFO). Opposite of FIFO. I
didn't think there were any real
applications
for this logic until a visitor to my site sent an
email describing their operation that
distributes perishable goods domestically and
overseas. They use LIFO for their overseas
customers (because of longer in-transit times)
and FIFO for their domestic customers.
Pick-
to-clear. Logic directs picking to the locations
with the smallest quantities on hand.
This
logic is great for space utilization.
Reserved Locations. This is used when you
want to predetermine specific locations to
put
away to or pick from. An application for reserved
locations would be cross-docking, where
you
may specify certain quantities of an inbound
shipment be moved to specific outbound
staging
locations or directly to an awaiting outbound
trailer.
Maximize Cube. Cube logic is found
in most WMS systems however it is seldom used.
Cube logic basically uses unit dimensions to
calculate cube (cubic inches per unit) and then
compares this to the cube capacity of the
location to determine how much will fit. Now if
the
units are capable of being stacked into
the location in a manner that fills every cubic
inch of
space in the location, cube logic will
work. Since this rarely happens in the real
world, cube
logic tends to be impractical.
Consolidate. Looks to see if there is already
a location with the same product stored in it
with available capacity. May also create
additional moves to consolidate like product
stored in
multiple locations.
Lot
Sequence. Used for picking or replenishment, this
will use the lot number or lot date
to
determine locations to pick from or replenish
from.
It’s very common to combine multiple
logic methods to determine the best location. For
example you may chose to use pick-to-clear
logic within first-in-first-out logic when there
are
4
multiple locations
with the same receipt date. You also may change
the logic based upon
current workload. During
busy periods you may chose logic that optimizes
productivity while
during slower periods you
switch to logic that optimizes space utilization.
Other FunctionalityConsiderations
Wave
PickingBatch PickingZone Picking. Support for
various picking methods varies
from one system
to another. In high-volume fulfillment
operations, picking logic can be a
critical
factor in WMS selection. See my article on Order
Picking for more info on these
methods.
Task Interleaving. Task interleaving
describes functionality that mixes dissimilar
tasks
such as picking and put away to obtain
maximum productivity. Used primarily in
full-
pallet-load operations, task interleaving will
direct a lift truck operator to put away a pallet
on hisher way to the next pick. In large
warehouses this can greatly reduce travel time,
not
only increasing productivity, but also
reducing wear on the lift trucks and saving on
energy costs
by reducing lift truck fuel
consumption. Task interleaving is also used with
cycle counting
programs to coordinate a cycle
count with a picking or put away task.
Integration with Automated Material Handling
Equipment. If you are planning on
using
automated material handling equipment such as
carousels, ASRS units, AGNS,
pick-to-light
systems, or separation systems, you’ll want to
consider this during the software
selection
process. Since these types of automation are very
expensive and are usually a core
component of
your warehouse, you may find that the equipment
will drive the selection of the
WMS. As with
automated data collection, you should be working
closely with the equipment
manufacturers
during the software selection process.
Advanced Shipment Notifications (ASN). If
your vendors are capable of sending
advanced
shipment notifications (preferably electronically)
and attaching compliance labels to
the
shipments you will want to make sure that the WMS
can use this to automate your receiving
process. In addition, if you have requirements
to provide ASNs for customers, you will also want
to verify this functionality.
Yard
Management. Yard management describes the
function of managing the contents
(inventory)
of trailers parked outside the warehouse, or the
empty trailers themselves. Yard
management is
generally associated with cross docking operations
and may include the
management of both inbound
and outbound trailers.
5
Labor TrackingCapacity Planning. Some WMS
systems provide functionality related
to labor
reporting and capacity planning. Anyone that has
worked in manufacturing should be
familiar
with this type of logic. Basically, you set up
standard labor hours and machine
(usually lift
trucks) hours per task and set the available labor
and machine hours per shift. The
WMS system
will use this info to determine capacity and load.
Manufacturing has been using
capacity planning
for decades with mixed results. The need to
factor in efficiency and
utilization to
determine rated capacity is an example of the
shortcomings of this process. Not
that I’m
necessarily against capacity planning in
warehousing, I just think most operations don’t
really need it and can avoid the
disappointment of trying to make it work. I am,
however, a big
advocate of labor tracking for
individual productivity measurement. Most WMS
maintain
enough data to create productivity
reporting. Since productivity is measured
differently from
one operation to another you
can assume you will have to do some minor
modifications here
(usually in the form of
custom reporting).
Integration with existing
accountingERP systems. Unless the WMS vendor has
already created a specific interface with your
accountingERP system (such as those provided by
an approved business partner) you can expect
to spend some significant programming dollars
here. While we are all hoping that
integration issues will be magically resolved
someday by a
standardized interface, we isn’t
there yet. Ideally you’ll want an integrator that
has already
integrated the WMS you chose with
the business software you are using. Since this
is not
always possible you at least want an
integrator that is very familiar with one of the
systems.
WMS + everything else = ? As I
mentioned at the beginning of this article, a lot
of
other modules are being added to WMS
packages. These would include full financials,
light
manufacturing, transportation
management, purchasing, and sales order
management. I don’t
see this as a unilateral
move of WMS from an add-on module to a core
system, but rather an
optional approach that
has applications in specific industries such as
3PLs. Using ERP systems
as a point of
reference, it is unlikely that this add-on
functionality will match the functionality of
best-of-breed applications available
separately. If warehousingdistribution is your
core
business function and you don’t want to
have to deal with the integration issues of
incorporating
separate financials, order
processing, etc. you may find these WMS based
business systems are a
good fit.
Implementation Tips
Outside of the
standard “don’t underestimate”, “thoroughly test”,
“train, train, train”
implementation tips
that apply to any business software installation
,it’s important to
6
emphasize that WMS are very data dependent and
restrictive by design. That is, you need to
have all of the various data elements in place
for the system to function properly. And, when
they are in place, you must operate within the
set parameters.
When implementing a WMS, you
are adding an additional layer of technology onto
your
system. And with each layer of
technology there is additional overhead and
additional sources
of potential problems. Now
don’t take this as a condemnation of Warehouse
Management
Systems. Coming from a warehousing
background I definitely appreciate the
functionality
WMS have to offer, and, in many
warehouses, this functionality is essential to
their ability to
serve their customers and
remain competitive. It’s just important to note
that every solution has
its downsides and
having a good understanding of the potential
implications will allow managers
to make
better decisions related to the levels of
technology that best suits their unique
environment.
仓库管理系统( WMS )
仓库管理系统(
WMS )的演变与许多其他软件解决方案是非常相似的。最初的系统
用来控制物料在仓库内的流动和贮
存,仓库的作用正在延伸到包括轻型制造业,交通运输
管理,订单管理,和完整的会计制度中。利用与先
前的业务有关的软件,制造资源计划,
作为一个比较,材料需求计划( MRP
)开始作为一个规划要求,原材料的生产环境的系

物料需求计划很快演变成以MRP系统,补充调度和容量规划为基础的逻辑制造资源
计划(
MRPII系统)。最终MRPII系统演变成企业资源规划( ERP ),吸收所有的MRPII
系
统的功能包括充分的财务与客户和供应商管理功能。现在,无论仓库管理系统演变成一
个以仓库为中心的
ERP系统是一件好事或不可达的辩论。清楚的是,在仓库管理系统,企
业资源规划,布局规划要求,交
通运输管理系统,供应链计划,高级计划与排程,以及制
造执行系统之间扩大重叠功能性只会增加那些寻
找软件解决方案业务的公司混乱水平。
尽管仓库继续获得额外的功能,最初的仓库管理系统的核心功
能还没有真正改变。其
主要目的是控制管理系统在工艺操作相关联的交易中的流动和材料储存。定向采摘

一
最低限度,一个仓库管理系统应采取下列措施
有一个灵活的定位系统。
利用用户定义的参数,指导仓库任务和使用Live文件来执行这些任务。
有一些内置的一体化和数据收集设备结合体。
您是否真的需要仓库管理系统?
并非每一个仓库需要一个仓库管理系统。当然,任何仓库可受益于其中一些功能,但
这些受益是否足以证
明管理系统最初的和正在进行的相关费用是正确的?仓库管理系统
是大的,复杂的,数据密集型的应用。
他们往往需要大量的初始安装,很多系统资源的运
行,很多正在进行的数据管理为继续运行。没错,你需
要“管理”你的仓库“管理”制度。
一般情况下,大规模的行动最终将建立一个新的IS部门用来唯一负
责管理仓库管理系统。
二 声明
1) 仓库管理系统将减少库存!
2)
仓库管理系统将减少劳动力成本!
3) 仓库管理系统将增加存储容量!
4)
仓库管理系统将提高客户服务!
5) 仓库管理系统将增加库存的准确性 !
三 现实
实施一个仓库管理系统用来自动的数据收集将可能使你的准确性增加,减少劳动力成
本(提供需
要维持系统的劳动力少于物品保存在仓库楼需要的劳动力)和更好地来服务客
户以降低周期。预期库存减
少和增加存储容量的可能性较小。虽然在接收过程中增加了准
确性和效率可能降低库存安全水平,但这种
降低产生的影响与整体库存水平相比可以忽略
不计。控制库存水平批量最主要的因素是多种尺寸,交货时
间和需求的变化,仓库管理系
统将对任何因素有重大影响是不可能。而且同时仓库管理系统确实的为更多
的有组织的存
储提供工具,因为这种存储可能会导致更多的存储容量,相对于这种改善您之前的仓库管<
br>理系统是多么草率啊。除了劳动效率,决定实施仓库管理系统的决定因素,往往与一些能
满足您的
客户的需求有更多关联,比如您目前的系统不支持(或不太支持)像先进先出,
交叉对接,自动挑选补充
,波采摘,多种跟踪,停车场管理,自动数据采集,自动材料处
理设备等 。
四 设置 <
br>仓库管理系统的设置需求是广泛的,每个项目和地点都必须保持在详细或分组类似项
目和地点分类
。一个例子,项目详细程度的特点将包括确切尺寸和重量,每个项目在每个
8
单位的项目储备(项目,案件,托盘等),以及信息,如是否可以与其他物
品混在一个位
置,无论是的最高层次,最大堆叠高度,最高量的位置,危险性分类,半成品或原材料,<
br>快与慢动,等。尽管一些行动将需要用这种方式设立每个项目,但大多数业务将有利于创
造群体的
类似产品。例如,如果你是一个音乐CD分销商,您将创建集团单一CD和双张CD ,
保持详细的尺寸
和重量的资料在组一级,只需要对每个项目附上组代码。您可能会需要对
特殊物品保持详细的资料,如盒
装套或CD的特别包装。您也可以为地域的不同类型在您
的仓库里创造群组。一个例子是,为您用于CD
采摘的三种不同大小前瞻性采摘地点建立3
个不同群体(小一,二,三)。然后,您可以建立单一的光盘
数量,将适合P1,P2和P3
的位置,多种双张CD适合在小一,二,小三的位置等。您可能还设立案
件的数量,每个
CD组光盘数量,货箱的数量和光盘的每个后备存储位置组。
如果这听起来很
简单,但在现实中很多业务有更多元化的产品组合,将需要更多的系
统设置。而且建立产品的物理特性和
产品的位置只是蓝图的部分。你设定的使系统知道产
品可以适合哪里并且多少产品将满足这个地方已经足
够了。您现在需要建立必要的信息,
以让系统决定从哪些位置选择,补充,并采集,并在这些事件应该出
现这些序列中(记得
仓库管理就是“指示”流动)。你分配具体逻辑的的做法使各种组合项目订单数量位
置
信息将出现。
下面我列出一些用于确定实际位置和序列的逻辑
1)
位置顺序。这是最简单的逻辑;您只需确定流经你的仓库和为每一个地点分配序列编
号。
为了挑选这是把您选择的在流经的仓库排序,在采集逻辑将寻求在第一位置的
顺序适合的产品。
2) 区逻辑 。由于把你的储存地点分到区,您可以直接采摘,收集,或补充或特定地区的
仓
库。自区逻辑唯一指定的一个地区,则需要再加上一些其他类型的逻辑,以确定确
切位置在禁区内。
3) 固定的位置。 逻辑使用预先确定的固定地点,每一项目中分拣,采集 ,和补充。固
定
地点是一块采摘挑选和个案选择的行动最常用的首要位置,但是,它们也可用于二
级存储。
4) 随机地点。由于电脑不能真正随机(也不想要他们)的任期随机位置有点误导。 随机
地
点一般指的是产品不会储存在指定的固定地点的地方。如Zone逻辑,您将需要一些
额外的逻辑,以确
定确切位置。
5) 先入先出( FIFO的)。首先指示挑选最古老的库存。
6)
最后,先出( LIFO )。我不认为这种逻辑有任何实际应用,直到我的网站访问者发
送一封电子邮
件,说明自己在国内和海外销售易腐货物的行动。他们为海外客户使用
LIFO(因为长期在途中)和为
国内客户使用FIFO。
9
7)
挑选到清楚。用最少的人手挑选逻辑指示的地点。这种逻辑是巨大的空间利用率。
8) 预留位置。这
个是在预约具体地点采集时使用。从申请预留位置将交叉对接,在那里
你可以指定一定数量的入境货物转
移到具体的举办地点外,或直接到等待出境拖车。
9) 最大限度地立方。立方体逻辑中是在WMS系
统发现最多的,尽管它很少使用。立方体
逻辑基本上使用单位面积计算立方体(立方英寸每单位)。然后
比较这个位置的立方
体能力,以确定有多少适合。现在,如果这些单位能堆叠成的位置,以填补每立方英
寸的空间中的位置,立方体逻辑将工作。由于这很少发生在现实世界,立方体的逻辑
往往是不切
实际的。
10) 巩固。查询看是否有一个以现有性质存放相同产品的位置。还可以创造更多的行动,
以巩固同类产品存放在多个位置。
11) 很多序列。用于采摘或补充,这将使用大量批号或
日期,以确定位置,以选择或补充。
这是非常常见的逻辑结合多种方法,以确定最佳的位置。例如您可以
选择使用挑选到
清晰的逻辑内先入先出逻辑当有多个地点以同样的收据的日期。您也可能会根据目前的工作量改变的逻辑。在繁忙时段内您可以选择的逻辑,优化生产力,同时在速度较
慢时期您切换到
逻辑,优化空间利用率。
五 其他功能思考
1)
波拾取批次拣货区拣货。支持各种不同选择方法从一个系统到另一个。 在高销量的
完成作业,可采摘逻
辑中的一个关键因素韦氏选择。见我的文章的订单欲知有关这些
方法。
2) 任务交织 。
工作交织介绍混合不同的功能,任务,如挑选和采集获得最大的生产力。
主要用于全货负荷运作,任务交
织将指示叉车经营者抛弃托盘上他她的方式在未来选
秀权。在大型仓库这可以大大减少旅行时间,不仅提
高生产力,而且还减少磨损叉车
和节约的能源成本,减少燃料消耗叉车。工作交织也使用周期计算程序,
以协调的循
环计数与采摘或采集任务。
3)
集成自动材料处理设备。如果你计划使用自动材料处理设备,如传送带,ASRS 单位,
AGVS,挑
选到照明系统,或分拣系统,您需要考虑在软件选择过程考虑它们。由于这
些类型的自动化是非常昂贵,
通常是一个核心组成仓库的部分,您可能会发现,这些
设备将驱动WMS的选择作用,你应该与设备制造
商在软件选择过程密切合作。
4) 先进的装运通知(ASN)
。如果您的供应商有能力向先进装运通知(最好以电子方式) ,
并附加遵守标签的出货量您会希望以确
保仓库可以使用这个自动化您接受过程。此外,
如果您需要向客户提供ASNS,你也将要验证此功能。
循环计数。大多数仓库将有一些
循环计数功能。修改循环计数系统是常见的,以满足特定的业务需求。
10
5) 堆场管理。堆场管理描述了管理职能的内容(库存
)的拖车停在仓库,或空拖车本身。
堆场管理通常与交叉对接,并可能包括管理入站和出站拖车。
6) 劳动跟踪容量规划 。 有的WMS系统提供的功能有关的劳动报告和容量规划。任何
人都一直在制造业应该熟悉这种类型的逻辑。基本上,您设定标准工时和机器(通常
叉车)小时以上的任
务,并设置可劳动和机时数的转变。该仓库系统将利用这一信息,
以确定能力和负载。制造能力已使用了
几十年规划的结果好坏参半。需要因素的效率
和利用率,以确定额定容量就是一个例子中存在的缺点这一
进程。不是说我一定对规
划的仓储能力,我想大多数业务并不真的需要它,并能够避免的失望试图使它发
挥作
用。然而,我一个大倡导的个别劳动生产率的跟踪测量。大多数仓库保持足够的数据
来创建
生产力报告。由于生产力是衡量从一个不同的行动,另一个你可以假设你将不
得不做一些小的改动这里(
通常的形式是自定义的报告) 。
7) 整合现有的会计
ERP系统。除非仓库管理系统供应商已经建立了一个特定的接口与
您的会计 ERP系统(如所提供的
经批准的商业合作伙伴)您可以预期花费一些重大
编程美元这里。虽然我们大家都希望这种融合的问题将
得到解决,有一天奇迹般地由
一个标准的接口,但是我们还没有。理想您需要一个积分,已经集成了仓库
管理系统
您选择与商业软件您使用。systems.
由于这并非总是可能你至少需要一个积分,这是
非常熟悉的系统。
8) 仓库+一切=
?正如我前面提到在本文开头,还有很多其他模块被添加到仓库管理系统
软件包。 这将包括全面的财务
,轻型制造业,交通运输管理,采购和销售订单管理。
我不认为这是一个单方面行动的仓库管理系统由一
个附加模块,核心系统,而是一个
可选的办法,已应用在具体行业,如3PLs。用ERP系统作为一个
参照点,这是不太可
能,这个附加的功能,将匹配的功能,最佳的应用软件可单独购买。如果仓储分销的
核心业务职能和你不想必须处理一体化问题纳入单独的财务,订单处理,等您可能会
发现这些仓
库管理系统基础的业务系统是一个良好的生长。
六 执行小贴士
标准以外的“不低估”,
“彻底的测试”,“火车,火车,火车”执行情况提示,
适用于任何商业软件的安装,尤其要强调的是,
WMS的设计非常依赖数据和限制性。也就是
说,您需要使系统正常运行的所有适合的不同的数据元素。
此外,当他们已到位,您必须
在规定的参数操作。
当执行一个仓库管理系统,你是给您的系统
额外增加了技术。并且相互层技术有额外
的开销和其他的潜在问题来源。现在不考虑这是一个谴责仓库管
理系统。对于一个仓库背
景我肯定赞赏WMS所提供的功能,并且,在许多仓库,这个功能是为客户服务
,保持竞争
力必不可少的能力。这里必须指出,每个解决方案都有其缺点,能良好的理解可能产生的 11
影响将让管理者做出与最适合其独特的环境的技术水平相关的更好的决策。
