The nucleus of a modern distribution center is WMS-class warehouse management system<\/strong><\/a> (warehouse management system). This type of system supports the management of the three basic areas of warehouse operation, which are the receipt of goods, their storage, as well as shipping. <\/strong> <\/p>

The latter process is, of course, crucial from the perspective of cooperation with courier companies. In order to streamline it, warehouse management systems have special modules for easy connection with the courier system.<\/strong> <\/p>

In the case of the WMS system offered by HKK Group (Digitio WMS system)<\/strong>, it is possible to quickly integrate the system with courier systems<\/strong> through a special integration application, supported by standard APIs. Such an integration model provides the ability to instantly connect systems, transfer data without user intervention, and print courier labels from the WMS. Speaking of labels, it’s time to move on to the next point of our paper. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n Label printers<\/strong>\n<\/a> are specialized devices that enable printing of labels delivered in roll form. Devices of this type are connected directly to an information system (for example, to a WMS or courier system). The labels are printed without the operator’s interference, and their content and layout meet the specifications of the shipping company in question.<\/b><\/p>

The most important part of the label is the barcode<\/a>, ensuring that the information contained on it can be read quickly and efficiently using \n automatic data identification devices.<\/strong>\n<\/a><\/p>

For warehouses where many packages or pallets are being shipped, it is possible to replace the manual application of labels with an automatic process using print & apply<\/strong> system labelers .<\/strong><\/a> Such systems combine the ability to print labels<\/strong> with their automatic application to both packages and pallets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

When discussing solutions to support the effectiveness of courier cooperation, it is impossible not to mention the dimensioning and weighing systems<\/b> used in logistics. <\/p>

Anyone who sends parcels or (especially) pallets on a daily basis knows that the proper determination of the size and weight parameters of a shipment affects its price.<\/strong> It can be influenced even more by verification of weight or dimensions resulting from an inspection by the courier.<\/p>

To avoid such surprises, it is a good idea to measure goods before preparing shipping documents using automatic systems such as Cubiscan<\/a><\/strong>. These devices determine every dimension and weight with great precision<\/strong>, and their certification guarantees that the measurement taken will be recognized by the courier or shipper.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
