Paperless warehouse operations to drive warehouse productivity

An end-to-end solution for the paperless warehouse

With the E21 ERP warehouse management system, manufacturers and distributors can take advantage of fully integrated RF and barcode scanning capabilities directly within the E21 application to deploy paperless warehouse operations across the enterprise.

The solution supports barcode scanning for every warehouse transaction, from receiving and putaway to pick, pack, and ship operations. It also allows for a phased, process-based approach to deploying a paperless warehouse based on a sequence that best fits the organization.

In addition, E21’s built-in support for GS1-128 labeling and NiceLabel integration provides the infrastructure necessary for organizations of any size to ready themselves for more streamlined, automated warehouse processes.

A paperless warehouse, one or multiple warehouses at a time

With E21’s flexible ERP system configuration manager, organizations can implement paperless warehouse operations at a single warehouse or multiple facilities.

The specific paperless processes at each facility can be the same across the organization or have slight variations for each facility. One warehouse may use multi-order directed picking, while another may continue to use paper pick tickets until the time is right to implement paperless operations at that facility. One warehouse may have directed receiving processes with barcode scanning in place. In contrast, another warehouse may be an outside facility that electronically transmits receipt information to the organization.

No matter the obstacles to implementing paperless warehouse operations, E21’s flexible, configurable architecture enables organizations to deploy RF and barcode scanning technology when and where it makes sense.
