Automated Warehouse Control System

Major features include:

• Ability to define any number of sorting lanes for load building or palletizing
• Ability to define routes and route sequences, and assigning specific lanes for product destined for a particular route-sequence
• Ability to define multiple control processes for different areas of the warehouse (e.g., if there is more than one sorting area)
• Extremely efficient and fault-tolerant database, with tables mapped to memory for fast and reliable real-time performance
• Real-time and on-line access to movement information by lane and by route-sequence for a shift or a day
• Ability to pre-load the system with expected cases and weights for each route-sequence; this information can then be used to compare to actual counts scanned by the system
• Extensive security and access control functionality by user and menu option
• Easy-to-use menu system
• Extensive logging of all system changes by user with date and time stamp
• Ideal companion to the ProCLASS Distribution Management system with identical menu systems and user interface
