Challenges:

Purchasing specialists need to have an on-site verification of the received merchandise (type and quantity) and later input details into the company’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system via a fixed computer. The process is time consuming, with a high error rate and a risk of fraud because of lacking supervision.

Solution:

WEPOY Android-based handheld computer receives purchase orders from the company’s back-end server through 3G/4G/Wi-Fi connectivity. Warehouse operators use Chainway handheld computers to scan products’ 1D/2D barcodes or UHF/HF/LF RFID tags to make an automatic verification, then transfer this data wirelessly to the ERP system.

Results: 

1. UHF RFID tags can be read through parcels in seconds for a dense population. Chainway handheld computer captures digital data of your received goods accurately and instantly. It is error-free and cost-effective.

2. The system can also lead the worker to the right place where each piece of a shipment should be located on the shortest route.

3. If products are damaged, unqualified, or discrepant with purchase orders, workers can take photos with Chainway handheld computer as evidence.

4. Data about the received products are transferred into the ERP system, updating its database. Logistics administrators gain real-time insight into the actual stock and supply chain will have a positive start.
