Warehouse management in cable manufacturing has specific requirements that generic systems do not cover. Cables are stored on drums of varying lengths, material undergoes cutting and packaging, and regulations require complete traceability from receipt to dispatch.
The WM module tracks materials across warehouses and locations, including batches and statuses (under inspection, blocked, released). It supports consignment warehouses for both suppliers and customers, as well as returnable packaging management. Every movement is recorded and linked to accounting documents.
Full traceability extends from raw material receipt through every production operation to finished product dispatch. In case of a complaint, the complete history can be traced, including data from the production process.
Hierarchical storage location structure for precise inventory tracking.
Material tracking by batch with complete history.
Quality control at goods receipt, blocking of non-conforming material.
Recording of lengths and remnants when splitting drums.
Packaging unit management with the ability to consume packed batches in production.
Automatic printing of identification labels.
Tracking of supplier materials and customer consignment stock.
Tracking the circulation and status of returnable packaging.
Complete material history from receipt to dispatch.
Stocktaking via mobile application with scanner.
Cable manufacturing works with material on drums that is cut to required lengths. Generic warehouse systems do not support cutting or remnant tracking. Traceability ends at the goods receipt level, not at the specific production operation.
Without production integration, packed batches cannot be consumed directly in the manufacturing process -- they must first be administratively unpacked. Stocktaking requires a stable network connection, which is often not feasible in large production halls.
Consignment stock and returnable packaging are tracked outside the main system, leading to inaccuracies and manual reconciliation.
When cutting, new batches are created with length records. The system tracks the original drum and all its parts, including remnants.
Yes. The mobile application enables stocktaking by location without the need to halt operations. The system continuously matches scanned items against the inventory records.
The application works partially offline. Data is synchronized as soon as a connection is available. Full production hall coverage is not required.
Material can be blocked at goods receipt or at any time during storage. Blocked material cannot be issued to production without release.
Yes. The system supports any number of warehouses with their own location structure. Transfers between warehouses are fully tracked.
Each type of warehouse movement has defined accounting rules. Accounting documents are generated automatically upon movement confirmation.
Yes. The system tracks the circulation of returnable packaging, including their status and location at customers or suppliers.
Traceability covers material receipt, all production operations including measured values, packaging, and dispatch. The complete history can be traced when needed.
