EOB Warehousing Put Away EOB Warehousing Objectives Concepts

EOB - Warehousing – Put Away

EOB - Warehousing Objectives • Concepts • Receiving goods 2

RF Receiving Available in WMS not in AIM • Supports all receipt types • Reduces receiving processing time • Will improve receiving accuracy 3

EOB - Warehousing Putaway Process Flow 5

Implementation Consideration Use auto directed put-away to improve labor productivity, location utilization and dock-to-stock cycle times. 6

Example Receive two pallets to locations with existing inventory Location 040 PL 001 has 3 pallets. 3 Pallets – location capacity is 4 7 Receiving two more pallets should put one in 040 PL 001 to fill the location and another in the next available location.

Example Receive two pallets to locations with existing inventory Purchase Order Receipts or Receipts - Unplanned Test the put-away of two pallets into partially full storage locations. 8

Example: 9 TEST = SUCCESS

Implementation Consideration Use Put-away rules to optimize location utilization. 10

Example Allow mixed item storage Algorithm Assignment Maintenance After Before For RCT-* Changing the Put-away rule for a general receipt (RCT-*) will first attempt to fill all locations regardless of existing item match. 11

89 Put-Away rules Product Put-Away • Product put-away strategies attempt to optimize storage capacity and system performance • Optimization is configured at both the Warehouse and Zone levels DYK: Product put-away strategies attempt to optimize storage capacity and system performance. 12

EOB - Warehousing Implementation Consideration All items need to be setup in Multi-Level Item Maintenance. If not, the item will be received into the location you assign at Purchase Order Receipt but the warehouse receiving and put-away rules will not trigger and an LPN will not be assigned. See Item Set Up Training Slides 13

EOB - Warehousing Implementation Consideration Not all locations are created equal. Allow QAD WMS to help manage locations and facilitate product slotting. Easily accessible locations and locations closest to the point of use should have priority. 14

Location Popularity Keep Popular Product Close Location 5 Location 6 CCC Location 3 Location 4 BBB Location 1 Location 2 AAA Shipping & Receiving

Example: Assign Location Popularity Zone = Receipts (010 RC) Storage (040) Shipments (070) Pallet Storage (040 PL) 040 PL 001 040 PL 002 Locations INBOUND Ship (070 SH) 040 PL 003 040 PL 004 040 PL 005 040 PL 006 010 RC 001 Inspection (020) 040 PL 007 040 PL 008 040 PL 009 040 PL 010 QA Hold (030) Strategy: Keep product in 006 followed by 004 & 008, then 002 & 010 and finally 001, 003, 005, 007 & 009 OUTBOUND Area = Receipts (010) Packaging (060) Setup WMS to support this strategy. Assembly (050)

Example: Assign Location Popularity Assign popularity codes to each location Warehouse Location Maintenance Location Popularity 040 PL 004 BBB 040 PL 008 BBB 040 PL 002 CCC 040 PL 010 CCC All Others DDD

Example: Change the Receipt Put-Away Rules Change the receipt put-away rules Algorithm Assignment Maintenance The standard put-away rules for receiving is store by Popularity Code.

Example: Storage by Popularity Receipts should fill popular locations Receipt Item Qty Expected Result 1 03120 100 1 LPN to 040 PL 006 2 03120 200 2 LPNS, 1 to 004, 1 to 008 3 03120 200 2 LPNS, 1 to 002, 1 to 010 Location capacity = 100 EA = 1 Pallet

Example Receipt One: 03120, 100 each 040 PL 002 040 PL 004 040 PL 006 040 PL 008 040 PL 010 Location capacity = 100 EA = 1 Pallet

Example Receipt Two: 03120, 200 each 040 PL 002 040 PL 004 040 PL 006 040 PL 008 040 PL 010 Location capacity = 100 EA = 1 Pallet

Example Receipt Three: 03120, 200 each 040 PL 002 040 PL 004 040 PL 006 040 PL 008 040 PL 010 Location capacity = 100 EA = 1 Pallet

LPN Creation LPNs can be assigned at the point of receipt Warehouse Maintenance LPNs can be assigned at the point of receipt

LPN Creation Configure the LPN number alpha numeric format Sequence Definition Maintenance

QAD - Warehousing Key Learning Points • Location data can be setup for reporting and/or capacity management • Put-away rules drive storage best practices • Items need to be setup in the warehouse • Location Popularity category can help manage slotting 25
