Mass Based Inv Adjustment [MOV007]

This module can be linked to a weight scale and has been designed to correct any mass variances of lot-controlled products going on to a pick slip.

When working with any mass-based product, such as food ingredients, there are times when the actual mass of a bag needs to be checked and adjusted in the WMS software.

A replenishment may call for 40 pounds of a product to be placed into a pick face. A single product bag is picked and delivered to the pick face warehouse entrance. Before simply scanning this into the pick face, the bag can be placed on a conveyor that integrates to this software to process a weight check. The screen then processes any small positive or negative stock adjustment to correct the mass. Ensuring the mass is correct before moving the stock into a pick face bin helps to ensure that we do not get picking errors later where the picking transacts 2.34 pounds to a job, but DATASCOPE WMS only has 2.1 pounds in the bin.

This module is particularly helpful when transacting in a lot traceable environment.
