Warehouse Management Systems (WMS)
Deployment of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) in warehouses has been forced by constantly increasing pressure on enhancement of inventory turns, requirements on better warehouse space optimisation, mistakes and confusions reduction in picking and not least also by requirement on increase in operations effectivity and labour productivity. Along with the development of wireless technology enabling on-line interconnection of mobile computer technology with ERP system, there is a significant tendency to shift from „paper“ managed systems to on-line systems based on wireless Wi-Fi network in a warehouse and handheld terminals with integrated barcode scanner.
