The development of commercial retail has brought great convenience to people's lives. However, under the impact of e-commerce, people have increasing requirements for brick and mortar operation, which faces a series of challenges.
There are a wide variety of goods in retail stores. Workers take stock manually, as a result, the workload is heavy and error-prone. The warehousing data cannot be grasped in time, which is not conducive for managers to make the distribution plan in time. Since the storage location of the goods cannot be quickly uploaded, it is difficult to find the goods. Sales statistics are cumbersome, and sales cannot get timely updates. It is not always possible to ensure an adequate supply of various commodities. It is difficult to collect data between the chain stores. The headquarters cannot obtain sales data of chain stores in a convenient and timely manner, which is not helpful for managers to adjust the inventory configuration according to the market.
Along with the development of the retail industry, the traditional store management has been unable to meet the modern and efficient needs, and it urgently needs more effective management methods to enhance the operation and management of the store.
Chainway has launched a PDA-based application and solution for the retail industry, which can easily help physical retail enterprises to achieve information, improve efficiency and storefront workflow. It also improves services to comprehensively enhance the overall operating efficiency of the store. Combining RFID technology, wireless network communication and handheld terminal applications, we can tailor a complete intelligent interactive retail store management system for users based on their specific needs. It is easy to deploy. By reading UHF tag information of products, it can realize intelligent information management of goods and the real-time interaction with back-end database system information.
Main functions
Stocktaking: A barcode is applied to each box of goods. The staff can scan the barcodes by hand-held PDA, which can quickly and conveniently count the goods and greatly improve the inventory counting. It greatly improves work efficiency and feedback speed of the supply chain.
Intelligent sorting: During the sorting process, the PDA mobile device can automatically identify the cargo information by scanning the barcode of the goods, and record it to achieve accurate and fast sorting of goods. It ensures the efficient operation of the entire logistics distribution process.
Data management: The staff can scan goods very quickly with the handheld reader, and upload it to the database for comparison. No misrecording will not occur, ensuring that the accounts are always unified. And through the wireless network, the data can be conveniently transferred to the headquarters database, so that the headquarters can know the sales status of each store in time.
Effects
• Use handheld PDA to intelligently take stock and sort. It achieves high automation of warehouse management, which saves time and effort and ensures high efficiency and accuracy.
• Information is automatically entered and transferred to the database system via the network, which eliminates the need for manual transcripts and achieves a paperless office.
• Improve the efficiency of put-away, avoid manual operation errors, and get timely updates to ensure an adequate supply of various commodities.
