Challenges:
Operators decide a put-away place based on their past experience. When a type of products need to change their usual slots, operators cannot timely find another suitable put-away location, and later cannot pick the right stock from the right slot. Inaccurate put-away data prevents operators from seeing where exactly a product is stored and how much storage space is left.
Solution:
By reading products' 1D/2D barcodes or UHF/HF/LF RFID tags, Chainway handheld computer intelligently assigns all batches of products to their suitable storage slots, provides logistics workers with the shortest put-away path, and transfers this put-away information to the backend server. Available space is clear for warehouse managers to optimize inventory levels.
Results:

When put-away and replenishment is finished, the latest inventory data is transferred to the company's back-end server. Warehouse workers and managers have access to real-time inventory level anytime.
Out-of-stocks will never happen for logistics administrators can arrange rapid replacement of goods into the appropriate location based on accurate inventory data. Supply chain run smoothly.
Enhanced visibility of put-away data optimizes warehouse space utilization.
