InfoArea 0WM consists of BI Content for Extended Warehouse Management (EWM). You can use it to conduct actual and planned data analyses for warehouse management, using reporting methods. This enables you to develop a strategy to improve the efficiency in your warehouse. You can plan your workers better, develop your warehouse strategy, monitor and constantly check how individual scenarios affect your business targets.

Features

EWM allows you to analyze and compare warehouse data, and to perform strategic planning and simulation based on delivery data. A series of key figures are available, which you can use as a basis for defining and evaluating your own key figures.

The data basis is provided by the BI Content. It contains the data flows:

  • Measurement Service Results

  • Executed Workload

  • Exceptions

  • Warehouse Order - Warehouse Task

  • Delivery Items

  • Storage Bins

  • Value-Added Services

  • Strategic Planning

You can use strategic planning to perform long-term planning based on your historical data. You can change values, and conduct planning based on these changed values, for example to calculate the number of workers required for each month of the year.
