Set-up Guide

WCS - 3.4

30th October 2025 - 7.03
Reference: UG 106181

INTRODUCTION

This document is intended to show the further set-up possibilities on the WCS. This guide should be used by super-users and testing teams during initial set-up. An alphabetical list of all rules and their values is also included.

This document assumes that the installation has taken place (as described in the document WCS Installation Guide) and that set-up has occurred and a connection established in the WMS.

Note: A familiarity is required of the use of the WMS with respect to the WCS (as described in the document RDT Training Guide WMS), as well as a reasonable knowledge of the WCS Maintenance functions (as described in the document WCS Maintenance User Guide). See References for more details of the referred documents

Data sent from WMS

There are several tables on the WCS that are used to control basic functions. As this data is available on the WMS as well, drip-feed interfaces have been enabled to send this data from the WMS to the WCS. The following section describes which of these tables are set up like this, and for what purpose the information in used.

Reason Codes

Reason codes are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Reason codes are used in a variety of places in the RDT application, for example when picks are cancelled or short-picked, or damaged or additional pallets are received.

The data stored on the WCS is simply the Reason code itself, along with which company and warehouse the codes are associated.

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Reason Codes Enquiry from the Standing Data menu.

Pallet Types

Pallet types are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Pallet Types are used mainly when entering the details of pallets, for example in goods receipt. Normally, however, the pallet type can be left blank, as the WMS will default the pallet type to that normally received for the stock.

The data stored on the WCS is simply the pallet type itself, along with which company and warehouse the types are associated.

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Pallet Types Enquiry from the Standing Data menu. If a more permanent copy is required, a report can be run from the Reports menu (Pallet Types List)

Truck Types

Truck Types are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Truck Types are used when logging on to the WCS. The type used defines in which areas the driver is allowed.

The data stored on the WCS is simply the truck type itself, along with which company the trucks are associated and whether the truck type is considered intrinsically safe.

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Truck Type Enquiry from the Standing Data menu.

Location Types/Truck Types

Location types/Truck types are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Location types (and their associated truck types) are used in nearly every enquiry in the WCS. Every task, to move a pallet from one point to another, defines which location type the associated location is. The data received from the WMS defines which truck types are allowed access to that particular location. This, coupled with the truck type the RDT user enters at log-on, defines where exactly that user is allowed to operate.

The data stored on the WCS is the location type, with all associated truck types, along with which company and warehouse the types are associated.

The data stored on the WCS can be checked by running the Location Truck Type Checker from the Standing Data menu. This is used by entering the location types you want to check in the appropriate combo boxes in the form, the clicking the 'Check' button. The form will show you all the trucks associated with each location types, and which trucks have access to both.

If a permanent copy of the data is required, a report can be run from the Reports menu (Location Type/Truck Types List).

Receipt Types

Receipt Types are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Receipt types are used only in the goods receipt RDT module, and only if they have been enabled. This allows RDT users to define the receipt type that will be passed back and stored on the WMS.

The data stored on the WCS is simply the receipt type itself, along with which company and warehouse the codes are associated.

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Receipt Types Enquiry from the Standing Data menu.

Employees

Employees (Users) are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a maintenance screen in the WMS. Instructions on how to do this and what is sent are in the WMS Training guide

Employees are used mainly at log-on on the RDT. They can also be used to authorise events on the RDT, if required. The entered employees are stamped as completing their tasks, and this information is stored on the WMS for analysis later.

The data stored on the WCS consists of elements passed from the WMS and also elements that the WCS requires itself.

The Employees will be set up when received as follows:

• Company Code - from WMS
• Warehouse Id - from WMS
• Employee Code - from WMS
• Employee Name - from WMS
• Password - None
• Access Type - RDT
• Group - None

Additionally, one row in this table is created during the initialisation procedure of the database (the user initial admin user ADM is created). This can be seen in the WCS Installation Guide

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Users Maintenance screen from the Standing Data menu. If a more permanent copy is required, a report can be run from the Reports menu (Employees List)

See section 4.1 for details of how to further configure the Employees table.

Aisles

Aisle codes are sent from the WMS to the WCS from a validation process in the WMS. This depends on some very specific system set-up in both the WMS and WCS. However, if this happens, the aisle data is set up as follows:

• Aisle Code - from the WMS tables.
• Availability - Y, N or P
• Company code and Warehouse ID.

Aisle codes are used for two main reasons in the WCS:

• To give the closest next task to an operative
• To allow or disallow putaway in certain aisles.

The data sent automatically above accounts for the operation of the second piece of functionality. Other items on the WCS Aisles table control the first piece.

Apart from these parameters, there is also the option to send over extra aisle information if needed from the Aisles Maintenance screen.

This extra information is as follows:

• Aisle Sequence Code
• Linked Aisle Code, Locs In Aisle and High End Access
• PD Out Location, Type, Check Digits and Max Pallets
• PD In Location, Type, Check Digits and Max Pallets

The data stored on the WCS can be seen by running the Aisles Maintenance screen from the Standing Data menu. If a more permanent copy is required, a report can be run from the Reports menu (Aisles/P&D List). This report, however, links more closely into the further configuration of aisles utilising P&D locations (see sections 3.5 and 4.2)

See section 4.2 for details of how to further configure the Aisles table.

Stock Parameters and Barcodes

Stock configuration and barcode information is sent from the WMS to the WCS from the stock maintenance screen in the WMS and from EDI.

When stock codes are added or changed and updated, the messages are sent to the WCS. These are not visible within the WCS Maintenance program.

The data sent includes validation items and barcode information, as follows:

Item	Type	Length	Description
Owner Code	Text	3	Owner Code
Stock Code	Text	20	Stock Code
Description	Text	40	Description, for display
Standard Pallet Qty	Long Integer	4	For validation in Goods Receipt and Stock Take
Layer Qty	Long Integer	4	For layer quantity entry in Goods Receipt
Shelf Life	Long Integer	4	For validation of sell-by dates in Goods Receipt and Stock Take
Manu Date Required	Text	1	Whether the stock requires Manufacture dates to be entered. Used in Goods Receipt and Stock Take.
Sell By Date Required	Text	1	Whether the stock requires Sell-by dates to be entered. Used in Goods Receipt and Stock Take.
Cust Batch Required	Text	1	Whether the stock requires Customer Batches to be entered. Used in Goods Receipt and Stock Take.
Seals Required	Text	1	Whether the stock requires a seal to be entered at Goods Receipt. (Bespoke. Oracle Only.)
Hazardous	Text	1	Whether the stock is hazardous. Used in Shipment Pallet functionality. (Bespoke. Oracle Only.)
Chill	Text	1	Whether the stock is chill. Used in Shipment Pallet functionality. (Bespoke. Oracle Only.)
Factor_1_2	Long Integer	4	The factor used by WMS to determine the number of units in a case, usually. Used for Multi UOM functionality. (C-ISAM only)
Factor_2_3	Long Integer	4	The factor used by WMS to determine the number of cases on a pallet, usually. Used for Multi UOM functionality. (C-ISAM only)
Description 2	Text	30	Second description line, for display
Pack Size	Text	10	Pack Size, for display

The barcode information is used to determine the elements within a barcode that can be scanned for identification of the stock code. This is usually EAN codes and UCC-EAN codes. When set up in the WMS, this information is sent through to the WCS.

WCS Internal Data

Further information is required by the WCS to run. This data is not available from the WMS and must be set up on the WCS itself. This section shows the data that needs to be entered directly.

In all these cases, further details on how to use this screen can be found in the WCSM Users Guide, referenced in 4.2

Groups

This table is used to configure the options individual users can have when accessing RDT or Maintenance functions.

One row in this table is created during the initialisation procedure of the database (the group ADM is created when the initial admin user is created). This can be seen in the WCS Installation Guide

The data can be seen and modified from the Groups Maintenance screen, found on the Standing Data menu.

Users are partially maintained by the WMS, sending data records when an employee is added or deleted. You can add system settings to a user, using the Group ID reference field. This links to records you can maintain in this screen.

The group contains switches to show which users are allowed to use which functions. As such, the screen allows you to enter a unique group id, and a description of the group. You are then given a list of all available functions on the WCS and RDTs. Simply click which functions you require from one list to the other.

System Parameters

The values in this table are created during the initialisation procedure of the database. This can be seen in the WCS Installation Guide

Configuration items are grouped into 4 sections. Each is described in detail in the following sections.

Rules

WCS Settings

This allows you to modify the communication settings of the WCS, plus settings which directly affect how the system communicates.

Note 1: Changing these settings may affect the running of the WCS server. If you are not sure of the consequences of your actions, telephone the support team.

Note 2: These settings will be enabled during system configuration and in normal circumstances should never be changed. Changes to WCS configuration settings will not take place until after the next stop and start of the WCS Server process.

Settings common to both connection systems (C-ISAM and Oracle) that may be modified are:

Name	Description
Default Company Code	This is the default company code that the RDT will log on to.
Delete Records	When this option is checked, completed tasks are deleted from the WCS database. All logging is still in place. When un-checked, the completed tasks are marked for deletion by the cleardown process.
Enable Hold Priority	This allows the lowest priority in the WCS to be used as a Held status. When this option is checked, and tasks on priority 9 will not be allocated to RDTs to complete. To release the tasks, re-prioritise the task to a higher level.
RDT Wait Time	This is the amount of time that the RDT will wait before re-trying communications.
Window Caption	This field changes the displayed name of the WCS Server process, when running. This is useful when running multiple systems on one site or one server.
RDT_WCS LocalPort	This is the port that the WCS listens to for communications from RDTs.
Log Path	WCS Logging database - When this option is checked, you will be prompted to enter a location for the logging database. THIS OPTION MUST NOT BE CHANGED IF THE WCS SERVER IS RUNNING. When this is done, the logging files in the normal database are no longer used - a new database will be created in the defined area and the WCS server will begin all logging to this database instead. All options in the WCS that use these logging files will now use the new database instead. The logging files are: Error log; Incoming log; Outgoing log; RDT Activities and; Exceptions.
WMS System	Version of WMS that the WCS is connecting to.

If the system is connecting using socket connections, the following details can be modified:

Name	Description
WMS HostName	This is the IP address or host/DNS name of the WMS machine.
WMS_WCS LocalPort	This is the port that the WCS listens to for communications from the WMS.
WCS_WMS RemotePort	This is the port that the WMS listens to for communications from the WCS.
WMS to WCS Try Limit	This is the amount of times the WCS will try to send a message to the WMS, if the message has been refused, before logging the error and trying the next.
Use Dummy Checksum	Used to terminate the interface messages with a dummy checksum value (??)
Connection Logging	Level of logging for System Connections (OBS USE ONLY)

If the system being linked to is using Oracle Advanced Queues, the following options will be available:

Name	Description
Ora Database	The database the WCS connects to for the messages.
Ora User	The username for the connection to the Oracle database
Ora Password	The password of the user for the connection to the Oracle database.
Ora Incoming Queue Name	The Oracle queue on which Incoming messages are stored. Outgoing messages are stored by messages type on the queues defined in the table ORA Type Queues.
Queue Listener Agent	The Oracle agent defines which messages to take from the Oracle database queues, and what Agent to write them as. Each instance of the WCS has a unique Agent name, usually per warehouse.
Ora Priority Incoming Queue	The Oracle queue on which high priority messages are stored.

There are also settings for links to an FTP Server. This is a bespoke modification, for the connection to a batch delivery system. The settings are:

Name	Description
Flat File FTP Server	Bespoke: The server where flat files are sent.
Flat File FTP User	Bespoke: The user for logging into the FTP server.
Flat File FTP Password	Bespoke: The password for logging into the FTP server.
Flat File FTP Location	Bespoke: The location where files are to be found on the FTP server.
Flat File Location	Bespoke: The location where files are to be located on the FTP server.

There are also settings for the RDT client. These settings are:

Name	Description
RDT Wait Time	This is the amount of time that the RDT application will wait before re-trying communications to the WCS.
RDT Box Drawing	What style of box-drawing the RDT's connected to this WCS will use.
RDT Logging	Whether the RDT's connected to this system log messages sent to and received from the server, for diagnostic purposes.
RDT Non Fatal Retry Count	When the RDT application encounters a non-fatal Wavelink error this number specifies how many times it will retry before bombing out.  A value set too low could result in application failures where they would normally be recoverable.  CHANGE WITH CAUTION.

Show File List at Startup	This controls whether the file list is shown on start-up, or a simple file browser.

Clear Down

These parameters control how data is cleared from the WCS database.

Name	Description
Location of Log Files	This specifies where the log archive is kept. The Log archive is the area where cleared data is stored.
Clear Database	If checked, any data older than the period entered is removed from the current database and placed in a new archive database.
Clear Log Archive	If checked, and log archives stored are deleted if they are older than the period specified.
Clear Exceptions	If checked, any exceptions older than the period specified is removed from the current database and placed in a new archive database.
Clear Activities	If checked, any Activities records older than the period specified is removed from the current database and placed in a new archive database.
Clear Deleted Records	If checked, any records marked for deletion older than the period specified are removed from the current database and placed in a new archive database. See section 3.2.1.1 for details of how data can be marked for deletion.
Clear Incoming Log / Outgoing Log /Clear Error Log	If checked, any interface log records older than the period specified are removed from the current database and placed in a new archive database.

These settings should be enabled on the WCS Server PC only, as this is the place where any scheduled cleardown procedure would be run from.

Warehouses

The values in this table are created during the initialisation procedure of the database. This can be seen in the WCS Installation Guide

Note: The values in this section govern how the WCS Server and RDT processes work. Generally, these items have been set up for you in the way that is most conducive to the way you operate in the warehouse. These values should not be changed unless you know how these will change the way the system operates. Changing the values may not have an immediate effect on the operation of the WCS. The safest way to change parameters is to log out all RDTs, the stop the WCS Server before making the changes.

Barcode configuration for the warehouse is available from a button on the form. Configuration items are grouped into seven sections. Each of the above is described in detail in the following sections.

General

This tab controls the basic operation of the warehouse selected.

Barcode Fields

In this screen, the fields the RDT will decode from UCC/EAN-128 barcodes can be defined. These items are used in Goods Receipt.

Owners

The values in this table are created when the user logs on to the RDT for the first time. The WCS will check for the existence of the WCS and create an owner record, indicating whether the owner requires customer pallet IDs to be entered.

The WCS can also create rules at an owner level, which will supersede the rules at the Warehouse level. This can be done by checking the Restricted box. At this point, the WCS will create rules for the Owner.

Note: The values in this section govern how the WCS Server and RDT processes work. Generally, these items have been set up for you in the way that is most conducive to the way you operate in the warehouse. These values should not be changed unless you know how these will change the way the system operates. Changing the values may not have an immediate effect on the operation of the WCS. The safest way to change parameters is to log out all RDTs, the stop the WCS Server before making the changes.

Barcode configuration for the warehouse is available from a button on the form. Configuration items are grouped into seven sections. In general, the rules at Owner level are the same as the rules at warehouse level. Each of the above is described in detail in the warehousing section.

P&Ds

P&D locations are staging areas or racks at the end of a narrow aisle to allow pallets to be dropped off mid-move, and then picked up by the next truck available to do that job.

Items that can be entered on this screen are:

• Location Code - The P&D Location Code.
• Location Type - This can be chosen from the drop-down list. This is only important if the client is using Reject Spur functionality in the warehouse, which is bespoke.
• Check Digits - As above. Can be left blank.
• PnD Type - Affects the order in which NA trucks pick up pallets from P&Ds in NADC. Choose from 3 types:
  • FIFO - First on to the P&D will be first suggested off the P&D
  • LIFO - Last on to the P&D will be first suggested off the P&D
  • Random - User scans pallet to take off P&D.
• Actual/Max Pallets - by setting the max pallets, you can limit the number of tasks that are allowed to each P&D.
• To recalculate the number of pallets actually at the P&D, click the Recalculate button. You will be asked to confirm your selection. There is no need to save the data once recalculated, as the program will do this automatically.

Company code and Warehouse ID will default from the user's default company and warehouse.

See section 4.2 for the use of P&D locations set up in the WCS.

RDT

This is an optional set-up item.

An RDT that make connections to the WCS create a record on this table. The WCS stores a unique key number and the RDT identifier, which is normally the IP address of the RDT. The data can be seen on the RDT ID Maintenance screen, found on the Standing Data menu.

The table also contains a description, and this screen can be used to change this to a more user-friendly description of the RDT. Additionally, this allows you to keep a list of all RDTs and their IP addresses.

When descriptions have been entered of the RDTs, this can be displayed against any activities or exceptions on the WCS.

The RDT can also be marked as "Intrinsically Safe" for use with flammable goods. This optional setup will then prevent users from logging on with truck types that are NOT intrinsically safe for use with flammable goods.

Printers

Printers can be either networked windows printers, or direct TCP/IP connections. The screen allows entry of either type.

A toolbar is included on the screen for ease of use.

To add new records, press the new button on the toolbar. Once you have entered your new printer, press the save button or OK button. Your data will be saved.

To find an existing record, press the find button on the toolbar. You will be taken to a lookup screen. Once you have selected your printer, the data will be displayed.

To navigate to other printers sequentially, use the scrollbar at the bottom of the screen. The status bar will show you which record you are on.

Once you have found a printer, you may wish to change some parts of it. Simply click on your chosen field and edit it. Once you have made all your changes, press the save or OK button to save your data.

To delete a record, press the delete button on the toolbar, then confirm through the popup dialogue.

To enter a wireless printer:

1. Press the New button.
2. Give the printer a name.
3. Enter the IP address and port number of the printer.

You can then use the Printer Tests section to send through sample print files directly to the printer to ensure that the IP address and port number are set correctly.

Note: For mobile printers, the port is usually 515, for Zebra printers the port is usually 9100. However, this is not guaranteed, and should be confirmed utilising the configuration options on your printer.

To enter a Windows printer or queue:

1. Press the New button.
2. Give the printer a name.
3. Choose the Windows printer from the drop-down box.

Note: The printers must be set up directly from the RDT or WCS Servers the RDT Applications are running from.

For details of how to set up Windows printers for the WCS, see 4.2

It is possible to print a test print to the printers from this screen, if you have a test print document. This can be achieved by putting the name of the test print document into the 'Data File' section on the form, or using the Browse (...) button to find the test print. Then click the Test Print button - the printer should then print the document.

Modification of Sent Data

In some instances, data that has been sent from the WMS doesn't have enough detail for the WCS. In this instance, further information must be entered on the WCS for records that already exist. This section describes the data that may need modifying, and what can be entered.

For these screen, further details on how to use this screen can be found in the WCSM Users Guide

Employees

As mentioned in section 2.6, the Employee data comes partially pre-populated from the WMS. The rest of the settings can be manipulated in the Users Maintenance screen in the Standing Data menu.

Data that can be amended in this screen:

• Password - this can be set here. The password is encrypted in the WCS database and can only be read from this screen. Only certain users have access to this screen, controlled by the user's assigned Group.
• Group ID - A group can be assigned, controlling the user's access to RDT and Admin modules. See section 3.1 for details

• Works Only in Aisle - These parameters effect the areas the user is given tasks, when operating System-directed tasks in the bulk areas. These will act as defaults for the user, or their defined range, depending on certain warehouse flags.
• Supervisor - Employees who are marked as Supervisor can use their username and password to unlock other RDT terminals. Locking occurs in some RDT modules as a result of some defined rule (for example, in Goods Receipt). See section 3.3 for details of some locking functions.
• Access Type - shows how the user is able to log on to the system - admin and/or RDT. This can be modified, and will take effect the next time the user logs on.
• Logged on shows how the user is currently logged on to the system. This can be reset using the reset button. N.B. this directly affects the users. USE WITH CARE.

Aisles

As mentioned in section 2.7, the Aisle data comes partially pre-populated from the WMS. The rest of the settings can be manipulated in the Aisles Maintenance screen in the Standing Data menu.

Data that can be amended in this screen:

• Sequence - This shows the order in which tasks from different aisles will be given to an RDT user, if moves are given in a location-efficient manner.
• Narrow Aisle - This controls whether this aisle can be selected in the NADC aisles selection.
• High End Access - This also controls the order in which tasks are given to users in DC. If set, tasks within an aisle are given in reverse order.
• Locs in Aisle - Future development.
• Linked Aisle Code - If this is populated, the WCS sees this aisle and the parent aisle code as one aisle, for NADC and aisle locking.
• Split Faces - If this is checked, the WCS splits tasks from odd and even bays separately.
• MHE-Fed - For Automated conveyor-fed aisles.
• PD Out/In - Controls whether the aisle utilises P&D locations for inbound and outbound tasks. The P&Ds can be chosen from a lookup.
• Display Info - This button displays some further information about the aisle:
  • Availability - Set from the WMS.
  • PD Weighting/Total Priority/IN/Out - Future development.
  • Truck In - If a truck is currently in the aisle, the RDT will be shown here.
• Reset Status - Clears the aisle of any locks, allowing other RDT users to work in the aisle. Included for support purposes.

Alternatively, the WMS has the ability to send some of these additional settings from the Aisles Maintenance screen.

Printing from the WCS

There are many ways in which printers can be set up for WCS use.

• The printers can be fixed or wireless.
• They can be Windows printers (networked or direct connect), UNIX queues or Wireless (via TCP/IP settings).

For all except wireless, this requires the set-up of a Windows printer (or queue). The WCS is then informed of the printer’s existence using the WCS Maintenance Printers Maintenance form.

Note: Although these methods can be used for standard network printers, it is recommended that the printer then be used exclusively for WCS printing.

Setting Up Wired Windows Printers

The printer must first be set up on the RDT or WCS server. This should be done following your network administration policy.

Once this is completed in Windows, the printer must then be set up for the WCS to recognise. To do this, use the WCS Maintenance Printers Maintenance screen.

Wireless Printing

You can set up a Windows printer for the wireless printer, using the TCP/IP settings or, more commonly, the WCS can be set up for direct printing.

Windows Queue

This method is extremely similar to setting up Windows printers (see 4.2), but the method for setting up the Windows queue is different. You should follow your network administration policy for setting up printer queues. The following demonstrates how the printer would be set up:

Add a new printer from the Control Panel. Choose to set up a local printer, and choose the option to create a new port, as below:

Choose Standard TCP/IP port. At this point, you will be taken through the following wizard.

When this port is added, the first Windows Printer wizard will be completed, and allow you to test print.

Once this is completed in Windows, the printer must then be set up for the WCS to recognise. To do this, use the WCS Maintenance Printers Maintenance screen, choosing the queue from the drop-down list of Windows printer queues.

UNIX Queue

This is similar to the Windows Queue setup (above).

Add a new printer from the Control Panel. Choose to set up a local printer, and choose the option to create a new port, as below:

Choose LPR port. At this point, you will be taken through the following wizard.

Enter the name or IP address of the UNIX machine hosting the queue, followed by the name of the printer queue on that server. Click OK when this is completed.

You will then be prompted through the standard 'Install Printer Software' dialogue - choose 'Generic/Text Only' as the Manufacturer/Printer.

Once this is completed in Windows, the printer must then be set up for the WCS to recognise. To do this, use the WCS Maintenance Printers Maintenance screen, choosing the queue from the drop-down list of Windows printer queues.

Direct Connect

Note: This is the normal set-up for wireless printing in the WCS.

In this option, the printer merely needs to be set up within the WCS Maintenance Printers Maintenance screen.
