Warehouse Data Collection

General Information

The warehouse data collection is used to streamline the workflow of warehousing processes. The data collection is preferably used to reduce errors and increase the speed of warehouse related processes. The workflow can be configured in the Data Collection Configuration window. For configuration possibilities, see the Warehouse Data Collection Configuration About description. The client for collecting data and executing the process is designed for working on a handheld device with a small display and to guide the end user through the process, hence the client is simple and data input is handled sequentially one after the other. To learn more about the client, see the Warehouse Data Collection Client About description. To learn more about the processes see the Warehouse Data Collection Process About description.
