 Radio Frequency

Use

Using the mobile data processing function, you can perform quick and error-free data transfer since the data entered through scanning the bar codes is posted synchronously in the ERP system.

The implementation of different types of “Radio Frequency Terminals” makes it possible to execute the individual processes within Warehouse Management so that the processes are posted directly at the location of the physical warehouse activity.

You can perform activities such as putaway, stock transfer, and stock picking by scanning the respective bar code on the handling unit, without special knowledge of the ERP system.

Features

Radio frequency (RF) supports the following data entry options:

Picking and Packing

This function allows you to pack goods during the picking process. If you select a handling unit for an outbound delivery, you can specify the packaging material that you want to use and pack the goods directly. The handling-unit identification is assigned to the transfer order for picking.

Packing and Unpacking

The radio frequency function supports creation of handling units during goods receipt and in the warehouse. You can either create handling units without reference to a document or pack delivery items right in the delivery.Deliveries can then be packed for a shipment.

Loading and Unloading

You can use loading and unloading functions to control the (un)loading of handling units from or onto different means of transport. Handling units that are to be (un)loaded can be identified by their corresponding shipment or delivery. You can find more information about a handling unit’s loading status by using the inquiry function.

Handling Unit Details

You can use the corresponding inquiry function to call up detailed information about handling units. Information about materials or lower-level handling units appears. The Warehouse Management view provides information about the storage unit, storage type and storage bin.

Handling Unit Labels

The radio frequency solution also supports printing of handling unit labels. You can activate the Print button in the corresponding transactions by setting up your own user exit.
