Developing a warehouse management system based on SAP LE-WM using an SAP Syclo mobile solution

With company warehouse operations going up every month (monthly number of operations is at 3,000, stock list is at 9,000 units) warehouse processes needed to be organized differently.

To optimize the warehouse processes, the company decided to automate such processes as material acceptance, transfer and issuing. The solution involved material barcoding and development of an application based on SAP Syclo for mobile data terminals. 

When a material arrives at a warehouse it is marked with bar code label. After that, a stock keeper finds a place for the material at the warehouse using a mobile data terminal. A mobile data terminal is also used to relocate materials within a warehouse and issue materials to divisions. The advantage of the solution is that it can work offline. Therefore, a permanent Internet connection is not required when conducting any operations at the warehouse.
