Explore how logistics and transportation tie into ERP systems to align business drivers with policies, capabilities, and ERP functionality for cost reduction, better stock coverage, and optimized transportation.
Explore how manufacturing planning aligns raw materials with demand, from forecasting to demand and supply planning, while tracking adjustments and capacity constraints to avoid the bullwhip effect.
Explore the challenges of international trade and how the letter of credit guarantees payment across borders, addressing export complexities, documentation, and compliance.
Learn how EDI architecture supports supply chain data exchange by detailing transmission methods, from TCP/IP and XML to FTP and email, and how middleware translates diverse standards into SAP idocs.
Differentiate logistics and transportation by describing logistics as planning and execution of movement within premises, including demand, picking, routing, and packing; transportation as vehicle selection, route determination, and pricing.
The lecture traces the warehouse outbound flow from inbound receiving to loading, detailing put away, repicking bin, refill or overflow bin, picking, sorting, value added, packing, and transport optimization.
Learn how warehouse picking works, from full unit pallet picks to loose picking and pick face layouts, using a pick list with location, article number, quantity, and weight.
Explore diverse warehouse picking strategies—piece picking, multiple order picking, cluster picking, zone picking, and wave picking, plus sortation—driven by policies and complexity to optimize throughput and packing for shipping.
Packing follows picking, using standardized handling units like pallets and containers to enable space-efficient, safe transport and tracking via cc numbers, barcodes, and rf IDs in IT systems.
