Abstract :
A warehouse inventory system is crucial for controlling the movement and storage of materials within an operation and processing associated transactions. It involves tracking inventory with a license plate number (LPN), which is assigned to the associated unit in the warehouse and updated every time the unit is moved. Implementing a warehouse management system (WMS) can increase inventory accuracy, reduce labor costs, and improve the ability to serve customers by reducing cycle times. WMS also supports companies in meeting FDA regulations through tighter inventory controls, better information tracking, and improved accounting processes. The high number of SKUs in warehouse inventory can lead to problems in loading trucks and putting away production, but WMS can help alleviate these issues by providing a more organized and efficient system.
