Introduction

The dynamic structure of the warehouse defines how object that move during day-to-day operation through the warehouse. The objects can be viewed and managed using the View and Operation menus in the Client :

  • Items (note that this is not the same as articles or stock)

  • Carriers

  • Orders

  • Order Lines

Items

An item is nothing more than an article that is put on stock. Items can be stored on a location, or in/on a carrier. With the item, meta data can be stored. By default, only the book date is stored, but this can be extended with best-by dates, country of origin, LOT codes, etc.

Carriers

Carriers can be seen as locations that can move. You can place carriers on locations, and you can place items on carriers. When moving a carrier to another location, all stock that is on that carrier will be moved as well.

Info

It is not possible to put carries on other carriers.

Orders

An order is a collection of order lines. The order has a state, and a type. Order can be made using the client, but most of the time they are communicated to the system through the Host Connector .

Order Lines

An order line has an article, location and an amount. Based on the order type, the location is a source or a destination. Article and location have to be defined in the article and location tables (see also https://tbwb.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/resumedraft.action?draftId=663945236 ).
