Inventory Maintenance includes facilities that
provide for periodic inventory audits. The audits can be performed as cycle counts or full
financial audits.
|
Upon initiation of the inventory audit
routine the operator is prompted for operator ID, the store(or warehouse) ID and the
destination store( or warehouse) ID. The repetitive activity of the inventory audit
function involves scanning the item UPC barcode then entering the item count. Upon
completion the scanner is placed in the cradle and the procedure is initiated to upload
the inventory transactions to the server. Reports are generated and the transactions are
applied to update inventory. |

WISL Inventory Maintenance offers the capability
to optimize the use of warehouse facilities. Stock transfer routines track product from
the warehouse to the store or between stores. Handheld data collection devices employing
barcode technology are utilized to control inventory activities.
