IBS understands that continuous improvement, ever more demanding customers, and changing product portfolios are just a few of the forces that drive change in the warehouse processes, meaning no two warehouses are the same. IBS Dynaman’s flexible rules engine ensures your processes fit like a glove. It allows you to define how materials should flow, what workflows are needed and when they should be invoked.
Rule engine
The embedded rule engine allows you to take fine-grained control of the material flow in the warehouse. It is currently implemented in the following process areas:
- Put-away
- Replenishment
- Counting
- Picking
- Wave management
- Dock & yard management
- Value-added services
It allows you to add, change or remove material flows through your facility.
Workflow engine
In complex operations, emphasis should be on a workflow tailored for the job at hand. This increases efficiency, reduces errors and is an important aspect of user satisfaction. It gives a warehouse additional flexibility in hiring temporary staff and reduces training cost. The IBS Dynaman workflow engine lets the application fit as a glove. Starting from the standard workflow, custom workflows can be defined that contain specific screen sets with an optimized field layout and custom buttons, all without custom development. If a workflow, based on standard business functions, can be defined, it can be implemented.
