NAV-004.PNG


From left to right:

  • Save - To ensure that any change to data input is saved, even to a single field, you must move out of the last field that you have changed before you exit the screen.  If you do not then the system will not recognise the change, even if you hit save. You can move out of the last changed field by either using the enter key, the tab key or by using your mouse to click onto another field. ([CTRL-S])
  • Print
  • Cut *
  • Copy *
  • Paste *
  • List of Values (LOV) - displays a list of values if there is one (this will be indicated in the status bar). ([CTRL-L])
  • Enter a query - used to find existing data using specific parameters ([F11]). Note that the colour of the title bar changes to turquoise, denoting that the screen is now in query mode.
  • Execute a query - asks the system to find data within selected parameters ([CTRL-F11])
  • Cancel a query - cancels any query that was set up.
  • First record - This [First Record] button displays the first record of the database.
  • Previous page - This [Previous Page] button displays the previous page.
  • Previous record - By clicking on this [Previous Record] button you can view the previous record. For example if you are in Order no. PIP00000000000000337 and you click the [Previous record] button then you can view the booking done prior to this Order - in this example, PIP00000000000000336
  • Next record - This [Next Record] button takes you to the next record.
  • Next page - This [Next Page] button displays the next page.
  • Last record - This [Last Record] button displays the last record of the database.
  • Insert - The purpose of the [Insert Record] button is to help you to insert new record in the system. If you want to add new record then by clicking this [Insert Record] button you can add a new record.
  • Remove - This [Remove Record] button help you to delete a particular record. By clicking on this you can delete the record from the database.
  • Clear - This purpose of this [Clear Record] button is to clear the record from that particular screen. The difference between clear record and the delete record is that delete record will completely delete the record from the database but clear record just clear that record from that particular screen. Clear records can again be retrieved from the database.
  • Help - This [Help] button prompts a help page.
  • Exit - This [Exit] button helps the user to come out of the particular screen ([F4]). Always use the exit door to come out of a screen as opposed to the ‘x’ in the top right hand corner.  Using the ‘x’ can cause problems with saving any changes or may even throw you out of the system.

Note Note: Items marked with an asterisk (*) are mainly used in Notepad screens.

TO SAVE CHANGES/AMENDMENTS

Note Note: To ensure that any change to data input is saved, even to a single field, you must move out of the last field that you have changed before you exit the screen. If you do not then the system will not recognise the change, even if you hit save.

You can move out of the last changed field by either using the enter key, the tab key or by using your mouse to click onto another field.

Mandatory Fields

Certain fields within the System are highlighted in yellow.

WMS-MandatoryField.png

These are mandatory fields in which user has to input the details in order to save any new/updated records successfully.

Shortcut Keys

You can access a list of valid keyboard shortcuts can be accessed on-screen by pressing [CTRL-K].

WMS-Shortcuts.png

Title Bar

The purpose of the title bar is to tell the user the system parameters that they are working within.

NAV-007.PNG

Navigation Toolbar

The purpose of this toolbar is to help the user navigate through the menu tree options.

NAV-008.PNG

Menu Search

The purpose of the menu search (screen locator) is to find a screen if you are unsure about where is it located in the menu tree.

When you click on the Search button, a screen appears which enables you to enter either the screen number or the screen title. The system searches for the screen when the 'execute query' button is pressed and displays the screen details in the information bar underneath. When you click on the detail line you are taken into the screen.

Note Note: Menu Search will only 'find' screens that are included in the menu trees. It will not 'find' screens that are called from within another screen.

NAV-009.PNG

Messages

The purpose of the message icon is functionally the same as normal e-mail; the screen displays messages received and clicking on the details line or clicking the details button will open up the message. It is not an e-mail function. It will only send mail to other CALIDUS system users who are included in a valid e-mail list.

The filter is used to specify what the user wants to do;

  • To compile a message, select new from the filter or click on the new button
  • To read received mail, select received from the filter (a message is received when the message button is yellow instead of white).
  • To view deleted messages, select deleted from the filter
  • To check if a message has been read, select outgoing from the filter


NAV-010.PNG


Tree Structures

The purpose of the main menu screen is to allow the user access to the required screen. The tree menu structure is designed to allow the user to access the screens logically and quickly. The menus are configurable and can be customised as required. See Menu Maintenance for more details.

All information is stored in yellow file folders to the left of the screen, if the folder has a plus sign to the left of it, then there are more folders associated with it.

When the folder is selected the icon shows that it is open, all the screens associated with the folder header are detailed on the right of the screen and can be accessed by clicking on the screen title.

  • Click on the plus sign or the yellow folder to expand the tree and show the associated folders.
  • Click on the minus sign to collapse the tree back to the main folder.

Instead of using the mouse the user can use ‘hot keys’ to navigate the menu by using the TAB key and then the [UP]/[DOWN] arrows to navigate the left and right screen panels. He can then hit the [ENTER] key to access a particular screen.

NAV-011.PNG

Information Bar

The purpose of the information bar is to provide details to the user of what the status of the screen is, i.e. executing a query, loading a new screen, or, what functions are available for the selected field.


Status of the screen

NAV-012.PNG


Querying Records

The purpose of querying records is to search, locate and display information quickly rather than paging through information.

To enter a query the user can either clicks on the [Enter Query] button on the formatting toolbar or press [F11] on the keyboard.  The user will know that they are in ‘enter query’ mode when the title bar will change colour and the information bar will have a query message displayed on it.

The user then enters the information they wish to query i.e. a booking reference and clicks on the [Execute Query] button on the formatting toolbar or [CTRL-F11] on the keyboard. The system will then display the relevant record and the title bar and information bar will return back to normal.

The [Cancel Query] button will clear any query information that is on the screen to allow the user to enter new query details. User can also press [F4] to cancel query.

NAV-013.PNG


List of Values (LOV)

The purpose of a list of values is to provide the user with associated information attached to a specific field.  The mandatory or main information fields will usually have a LOV attached to it. This is shown in the information bar at the bottom of the screen. [CTRL-L]

For example, Currency Code will have a LOV of existing Currency Codes


NAV-014.PNG


Partial LOV

The purpose of a partial LOV is to be specific about the data the user wishes to retrieve,

For example, a user wishes to enter a warehouse code for Liverpool

The user enters the first 2 letter of the code then clicks on the LOV icon on the formatting toolbar or keys [CTRL-L]. This action pulls up the LOV but is filtered straight to warehouse code beginning with LI.

WMS-PartialLOV.png

The user can select the required data from the list displayed by highlighting the detail line and clicking on the OK button.

The scroll bar on the right of the LOV allows the user to look throughout the list of information.

The find field at the top of the LOV can be entered into and more specific data can be added and filtered using the Find button.

Note Note: The percentage sign % is a programming key that tells the system to find all information containing text within the parameters.  This key can be entered either in the field before the LOV is displayed to go to specific information direct or entry can be made after the LOV is displayed i.e. %OL will display all codes ending in OL.

Screen Buttons

The purpose of screen buttons are to access additional relevant screens from the screen the user is currently working in. This saves the user from having to exit back to the main menu screen to enter more details.

For example, the Pick Confirmation screen has various buttons to help the user to enter direct information about the order, - Details, Order Notes etc

When a button is pressed the called screen is displayed on top of the existing screen. When exiting the called screen, the user will be returned to the calling screen.


WHS1714-AddOptions.png

Tabs

Tabs are another way of grouping information.

Different groups of data can be accessed from one single screen with the help of tabs.

Like on this Stock Maintenance screen.

Stock Maintenance

Multiple Screen Access

User can toggle between the two or more screens with the help of [CTRL-TAB] buttons on the keyboard, or using the Window option on the top toolbar.

WMS-Windows.png

Right Click Function

On certain screens it is possible to use a right mouse click (or the right click/list key on the keyboard) to call a panel of options. For example, on the Goods Receipt Confirmation screen (WHS01501), the right click function is used on the stock code line to call a panel of options.

Warehouse Set-up

This section describes the required screens to be used in setting up the information concerned with the actual physical warehouse. Other guides describe the set up of company, user, stock, owners etc.

This is a generic guide based on the version of the CALIDUS WMS system at the time of writing.

It can also be used by clients to specify their specific data values to aid initial system set up as well as for future reference.

Note Note: Fields marked '**' are mandatory and are needed to ensure correct set up of the system.


Warehouse Setup Steps

In order to create a warehouse, the user must set the standing data up in a pre-defined order. As most of the screens are co-dependant, any missed step may cause the setup of a following screen to fail.

You can maintain the UOMs for Area, Length, Volume and Weight here.

This enables the different types of measure and their associated unit. If volumetric information is not required all values can be left blank.

Whuoms.png

Note Note: It is advisable to not use the values 'MM'(millimetres) and 'GRM'(grammes)as it very easy to exceed the system maximums for these values. Areas affected include Allocation and EDI.

Warehouse Rules (WHS0078)

Warehouse rules are established as part of the development of the system functionality. The ability to specify which specific functionality is to be enabled in the warehouse and give any specific values is given in this screen.

Warehouse Rules Table


Field Name Description Options
Four Character Code as Held in Warehouse Rules Control Description of rule controlled functionality Value to enable functionality


SYSTEM PARAMETERS (WHS0010)

System Parameters (WHS0010)

This screen maintains all the static formats that will be used to set up the warehouse.  There are three tabs in all.  This page will detail the setup required within the MAIN tab.

Warehouse specific information is maintained in this screen. The above set up is the generic set up for a basic warehouse. Please see information at the end of this user guide for more details on the client specific flags

Used to specify a number of parameters that will govern the way the system will operate and how various items of information will be formatted in this warehouse.

Note, again, the user must be logged in as the correct warehouse in order to make changes


Sysparam.png


Note:

  • Auto Log Display determines whether the user wishes to see the allocation log once a set of orders has been allocated
  • Pick Note and Pal Move Lines specifies the number of lines allowed on a printed pick or move note
  • The Area, Aisle, Bay and Level lengths are used to determine the format of the location codes.  I.E. A location code of AA-01-1A  would have an aisle, bay and level length of 2 each (the area code is not included)
  • Max. Rotation Length is the length of the system generated rotation number
  • Loc Delimiter is the symbol used to separate the aisle, bay and level within the location code (for our example, the delimiter would be ‘-’
  • The Rotation Type is how the system generates the rotation number, or whether it is to be manually entered by the user.
  • Reduce Stk At will determine when stock is downdated during the order cycle.  Note, this is extremely important, if you choose ‘Pick Confirmation’ Despatch will not be feasible .


GOODS IN TAB

The Goods In tab of the System Parameters screen specifies what functionality during goods receipt you wish to use.

Sysgi.png

Note:

  • The Auto Putaway flag must only be set  to ‘Y’ if you wish the system to dictate where stock is located during the goods receipt process
  • The Opposite and Next Aisle Param fields are to determine how many locations you wish the system to search before moving to the next, or opposite aisle during Auto Putaway
  • The Hold Stk until Putaway flag should always be set to ‘Y’  If this is not set, stock received on a goods receipt could be ordered before it has been physically located within the warehouse

DEFAULT LOCATIONS TAB

The Default Locations tab is used to determine which locations are to be used during certain automatic processes throughout the system.

Note, this screen cannot be set up until the location codes have been created.  The user normally saves the first two tabs of System Parameters, then returns to complete this tab once the necessary locations have been created

Sysdef.png


Note:

  • Only the Default Marshalling Location is used within generic basic warehouse set-up.  Any other locations required will be determined by the client specific processes
  • Note, failure to enter a marshalling location here will mean that it will be required to be manually entered for each allocation run.


AREA CODES MAINTENANCE (WHS0035)

The creation of an area code is to enable the user to assign locations to a specific physical area within the warehouse.  Note, bigger warehouse will have more clearly defined areas than that of a smaller operation.

These codes are used as part of the location identifier as well as in sorting pick lists, structuring stock take etc..


Area code main.png

Note:

  • The code specified must be within the area code length defined in system parameters main tab
  • The description is used to enable the user to clearly see where the area is within the warehouse



AISLE CODES MAINTENANCE (WHS0050)

Aisle Codes Maintenance enables the user to create aisles within the warehouse.

The aisles can then be configured using the opposite and next aisle fields to specify where they are physically located in relation to each other.

These codes are used as part of the location identifier as well as in sorting pick lists, structuring stock take etc..

Aisle code main.png

Note:

  • The Aisle Code entered must be within the defined length as set up in system parameters
  • The Opp and Next Aisles can only be created once the original aisle code is set up
  • The Aisle Max Sequence is used to determine the number of locations within that aisle.


AISLE SEQUENCE MAINTENANCE (WHS0060)

In this screen the user can configure the sequence in which the aisles will be used. For Bulk aisles such as Marshalling and Quarantine the maximum sequence is used as these do not follow any algorithm.


Aisle seq main.png

This screen needs to be maintained if using the auto-putaway at receipt.  It will determine the priority and order of aisles to be received into.

Note Note:

  • Link an aisle to an area code, and assign a unique sequence.
  • All aisles created within Aisle Codes Maintenance must be entered in this screen.


AISLE STATUS MAINTENANCE (WHS8231)

In order to make the aisle available to the system, all aisle codes to be used must be set to available.  Note, the default on entry within the screen is No.

Used to indicate if a given aisle is actually currently in use or is available. Used in the event of physical access problems etc. The screen is used with the RF system.

Aisle status main.png

Note:

  • The system will automatically default in all aisle codes previously set up. The user then simply has to change the Available Flag from N to Y for each one.



PALLET TYPES MAINTENANCE (WHS0045)

All pallet types used within the warehouse are to be maintained in this screen.  Pallet type by definition is the media used to store goods within each location.  Media can include such things as wooden pallets, plastic storage boxes or cartons.

Pal type main.png

Note:

  • Pallet Type is a free text field that can hold up to four characters.  The user should ensure that the abbreviation used can be easily understood by the operational staff.
  • The mandatory height, weight and %fill fields must be populated with the correct values in order to ensure the accuracy of auto-putaway



TRUCK TYPES MAINTENANCE (WHS7020)

Mainly used for RF enabled warehouses, this screen determines what kind of truck can be used around the warehouse.  The truck types entered here can then either be added into location types maintenance, or entered onto a handheld RDT when processing.

Truck type main.png

Note Note:

  • The Truck Type entered must be 2 characters long
  • The Send button will refresh the WCS with all truck types and their description.


LOCATION TYPES MAINTENANCE (WHS0070)

The Location Types screen is used to build the locations within the system.

Location Types - Locations Tab

Here the user specifies what kind of location is in each aisle.

For example, some racking maybe narrower in certain sections, meaning the number of pallets allowed in each bay is reduced.

To make this clear, a different location type would be assigned to each location.

For each location type, the maximum number of pallets and the type of pallet allowed is then given to each location type.

The user can then assign a priority to when using auto-putaway, the system uses priority 1, then 2 etc.

Loc type main1.png

Location Types - Pallet Details Tab

Used to specify what pallet types can be used in a given location type.

Loc type main2.png

Note Note:

  • In order to use the pallet details tab, the user must enter 'Y' in the Pallet Storage field.  Entering 'N' will cause the location type to be seen as non-palletised and therefore not use-able for any stock stored on a pallet.
  • The maximum storage is the number of pallets allowed in that location.  For auto-putaway, the system will stop using that location once this maximum storage quantity has been exceeded.

Location Types - Truck Details Tab

The Location Truck types are required to define the access of trucks to this location type, for use within the WCS.

Loc type main3.png

Note Note:

  • In order to use the truck details tab, the user must enter 'Y' in the Truck Types field.
  • The Send button will refresh the RF system with all Location/Pallet Details/Truck Type information. Any additions or changes are automatically sent to the RF system on saving changes or a adding a new record.

LOCATION CLASS MAINTENANCE (WHS8056)

Used to assign a particular product classification to ranges of locations. Used by putaway to store products in relevant areas of the warehouse especially where segregation may be required.


Location Class Maintenance


Note Note:

  • Product classification is maintained with Stock Maintenance.
  • It is possible to assign either a range of locations or to add and remove on a location by location basis.


LOCATION CODES MAINTENANCE (WHS0090)

This is the manual screen that allows the user to create each location code within the warehouse.  The non-mandatory fields (not yellow) will be defaulted with the values shown in the figure below.

Loc main.png

If using the Automatic Location Maintenance screen, the Marshalling location must be created in order to enter this into the Default locations of System Parameters.

Note:

  • The location code specified must be the total length of the aisle, bay and level code lengths defined in system parameters, main tab
  • The area code must be one predefined in area codes maintenance
  • The use determines what the location will be used for.

Standard values are:

  • 0 - Preadvice Location
  • 1 - Bulk Location
  • 2 - Pick Location
  • 3 - Receipt Location
  • 4 - Returns Location
  • 5 - Damaged Stock Location
  • 6 - Marshalling Location
  • 7 - Goods In/Out Bay Location
  • 8 - Quarantine Location
  • 9 - Replenishment Location
  • D - Dynamic Pick Face
  • M - Multi-Pallet Storage Location
  • P - P&D (Pick and Drop) Location
  • U - Units Pick Location

The Multi-Deep values specify how an M type location is used and validates:

  • Position - one of
    • Front
    • Back
    • Non-Linked
  • Use - one of:
    • 4 - Valid pallets contain the same stock, batch number and owner batch
    • 5 - Valid pallets contain the same stock.
    • 6 - Valid pallets contain the same stock and sell-by date.
    • 7 - Check the last receipt location for pallets containing the same GRN and stock.
    • 8 - Valid pallets contain the same stock and manufacturing date
  • Linked Loc - if front or back, which location is this location linked to.


AUTOMATIC LOCATION MAINTENANCE (WHS0470)

This screen allows the user to create large quantities of locations in one screen.

It is easier and quicker than using the manual location codes maintenance.

Used to automatically create contiguous ranges of locations. This screen allows the user to automatically create large quantities of locations in one continuous range.  It is easier and quicker than using the manual location codes maintenance.

Note Note: To prevent unexpected locations being created, deleted or amended it is advisable to restrict the selection parameters to an aisle as a time.

Auto loc main.png

Fields:

  • The Run Type field has four options, Create, Delete, Release and Suspend.  Suspend and Release only hold and release locations respectively, they do not delete them.
  • The Area for Aisle must be one predefined in Area Codes maintenance
  • The Location Type must be one predefined in Location Type maintenance
  • Location Usage is the use type of the location (1,2,6 or 8 as explained in the Location Codes Maintenance page)
  • Bonded, default is always N
  • RDT.  This flag is only to be used if the locations are to be RF enabled.  Default is N
  • Start and End Location.  This is the range of locations to be created.  Note, care must be taken when entering the range, especially if using different types/uses.

Once entered, you can click the Generate button to generate locations according to the template parameters provided.


EMPLOYEE MAINTENANCE (WHS0020)

This is where the employee codes are set up.  Each person using the system or working in the warehouse need to be assigned an employee code.

Emp main.png

Note:

  • Employee Code: Although the field allows up to 10 characters, only a maximum of three can be used if the system is RF enabled
  • All fields other than Employee Code can be left blank.  However, the Name should always be populated for cross referencing in the future.
  • The Send button will refresh the RF system with all employee detail information. Any additions or changes are automatically sent to the RF system on saving changes or adding a new record.


REASON CODES MAINTENANCE (WHS0080)

This is used to establish all of the Reason Codes that may be selected when performing a stock management transaction within the warehouse.

Reason Codes are two character abbreviations used to describe why a particular action within the system has been taken.

For example, reason codes needs to be entered for every stock adjustment, hold and pick adjustment.

Whether a reason code is to be used to hold stock or not, determines whether the hold code flags are set to Y or N.

Res code main.png

Note Note:

  • The codes used to describe an adjustment must be clearly understood by the operational staff as the Description entered here is not shown throughout all of the screens during processing.
  • The G/B field determines whether a reason code is good or bad.  This functionality is mainly used within Sales Order Processing (Proof of Delivery) to determine whether stock should be written off or not.
  • The user may see a different layout to this screen than the one shown here.  This is based on a Program level registry setting 'WHS Layout Visible' under WHS0080.  The versions shown here is the generic screen.
  • The Send button will refresh the RF system with all employee detail information. Any additions or changes are automatically sent to the RF system on saving changes or adding a new record.


SYSTEM REASON CODE MAINTENANCE (WHS0085)

This screen does not have to be set up.

However, during various processes, the system dictates its own hard-coded reason codes.

As there is no table to specify what these codes mean, this table can be used to ‘translate’ a system generated reason code.

For example, after Receipt Confirmation has been completed, the system automatically puts stock on hold with a reason code of ’90’.

When querying the product, all the user will see is an unknown number.

‘AP’ is created in reason codes maintenance and assigned to System Code ’90’

For all future queries, the user will then see a more recognizable ‘AP’.

Sys res code.png

Note:

  • The System Code is the one generated by Calidus 3pl.  For a full list, please see your representative from OBS.
  • The Reason Code must have been previously set up in Reason Codes Maintenance.

Below is the current list of System Reason Codes from the time of writing, these will be added to as the system is developed.

Field Name Description Options Generic Value
Rent Mode Fixed definition of the type of Rent applicable for the owner None / Advance / Average / Fixed Advance / Maximum
Rent Cycle Daily / Weekly / Monthly / Half-Monthly etc (as described above). Note that although the same table is used to define the CYCLE, the Rent and Invoice Cycle are separate processes. As for Invoice cycle above

Charge Level Details – for control of individual ‘Charge Processing’

‘Auto charges’ (Charge codes with type of ‘Auto’) will be generated automatically within the individual processes if the appropriate flag is set to Yes. All are Yes / No flags (unless otherwise stated). These flags simply allow the user to ‘switch on/off’ charge generation for specific processing as required.

Field Name Description Options Generic Value
Receipt Header Charges Receipt Header level
Receipt Details Charges Receipt detail level
Invent Charges Inventory Movements (inc. Freeze/Chill process)
Carrier to Charge Direct ** Carrier charges (not UPM) – not used any more

Order Header Charges Sales Order handling - Order header level
Order Well Charges Sales Orders - Product type level
Order Pallet Charges Sales Orders - Despatch pallet level
Order Pallet Exchange Charges Special Pallet exchange code processing.

This checks if a specific charge is to be raised against the Stock Owner for the use of Pallets, due to the fact that neither the Stock Owner or their Customer has an account code for the Pallet Exchange system.

Invoice Generation Charges Invoice generation process

Do we raise a charge each type we produice an Invoice for this owner?

Stock Set-up

This section describes the required screens to be used in setting up the information concerned with the stock to be stored in the warehouse. Other guides describe the set up of company, user, warehouse, owners etc.

This is a generic guide based on the version of the CALIDUS WMS system at the time of writing.

It can also be used by clients to specify their specific data values to aid initial system set up as well as for future reference.

Note that fields marked '**' are mandatory and are needed to ensure correct set up of the system.

OVERVIEW

The configuration dependency diagram below illustrates which configuration levels are contingent upon preceding configuration. The pre-requisites for setting up stock information are:

  1. Product type
  2. Product class
  3. Unit of measure

The main stock information is input in a number of tab screens within the main screen. Note that it is necessary to input all mandatory fields on all tabs before a product can be used within the system.

Once stock information is available it is possible to define:

  1. Substitute stock
  2. Sales kit configuration


Set-up diagram


PRODUCT TYPE MAINTENANCE (STKPRTY01A)

Product type configuration is a pre-requisite to the configuration of products, given that product type is a mandatory field in the product configuration. Product types enable the grouping of stock, usually by physical classification. For example, frozen, chilled or ambient products may each be assigned a distinct product type, this will have an impact on how orders are processed and displayed in the system.

Note Note: If an order is made up of multiple product types, the system will allow individual allocation and picking by product type, in effect splitting the pick list.

PRODUCT CLASS MAINTENANCE (STKPRCC01A)

Product Range, Class, Category and Group combinations are created in order to segregate stock within the warehouse. They can also be used to distinguish one type of product from another. You can use these combinations to specify putaway routines and for stocktaking purposes. Note, although you see all four here, when you set them up you have to create the range first, go through the rest of the fields and save the record. When you come to create the class field, you have to enter the range you just created and then go through the same process. In this way, you can have multiple combinations of all four criteria.

Table When there are multiple data to be shown in a group, those records are usually displayed in a table. Tables allow showing multiple fields in columns, are scrollable vertically and sometimes horizontally, will have buttons for title labels if the columns are sortable and may allow configuration, usually through a Configure button, which will take you to WHS0909.

Slashes typically indicate a sub-menu. for example, Warehousing/Goods Receipt/Goods Received Advice denotes the top-level Warehousing menu, then the Goods Receipt sub-menu, and then the Goods Received Advice screen.
