WMS
Yueyong WMS: warehouse software at location level
A custom warehouse management system with a PC admin and PDA jobs. Inbound, locations, picking and counts — not a spreadsheet total labeled "WMS".
Background
The warehouse knew on-hand totals. It did not know which bin held which lot. Receiving and cycle counts never closed against a location, so pickers still walked by memory.
What we shipped
PC operations console plus PDA for inbound, putaway, location stock, picking and counts. Warehouse execution, not an inventory report.
What was breaking
- System quantity and shelf quantity disagreed after every busy day.
- Veterans found goods by memory; new hires took a long time to learn the floor.
- Counts lived in Excel and never posted back to a bin.
- Calling the tool a WMS did not change how people walked the aisle.
Approach
We modeled the warehouse as locations and jobs. Receiving creates putaway work. Picks are tasks against a ship order. Counts write back to the same stock ledger. The PDA is a worker UI, not a website squeezed onto a scan gun.
Modules
- Inbound receive and putaway
- Location-level on-hand stock
- Pick tasks and outbound check
- Cycle counts on the PDA
- PC admin for masters, jobs and exceptions
If pickers still hunt by memory, send a floor walkthrough. Warehouse work belongs under WMS at /en/wms/, not a generic back office.
