Abstract

In real-time situations, operating warehouse management systems (WMS) – which can be purchased for enterprise management systems (ERP) – are not able to satisfy companies’ needs in all cases. In many cases, numerous improvement possibilities remain unused (e.g. optimized material handling, system-evaluation functions, etc.). The subject of this paper's possible directions for WMS improvements and possible ways of implementations. One frequently applied improvement method is the development of supplementary applications. These implementation methods are also discussed. Implementation of the process worked out will be also presented by providing a solution for a specific company problem.
