Incoming goods from a supplier are identified in the goods receiving area by means of delivery notes and compared to the orders in the ERP system. With conventional logistics processes goods are not available for further material requirement planning before they are entered into the system.
Having compared the orders in the HOST system the goods receipt records are transmitted online to the SCM software CI_LOG. At this point CI_LOG can already recognise, whether the goods are in backlog. CI_LOG will then assume the entire control of the internal material flow. By means of the parameterisable target control and on the basis of predefined strategies the goods can simply and safely be transported to the subsequent processing zones.
ADVANTAGES
- After the identification of the articles in CI_LOG the corresponding location and processing state of each article are traceable.
- The articles will immediately be available in the ERP system for further material requirement plannings.
- Internal transport can be effected totally paperless.
