With the rapid development of modern science and technology, in the Internet + era, the majority of manufacturing industry is facing the challenge pressure of multiple changes, and all enterprises need to integrate and jointly develop with the modern logistics industry, so the digital supply chain has become a strong factor for the development of enterprises today.Therefore, how to complete the transformation faster and better under the premise of the correct general direction is the most important problem for every manufacturing enterprise.So why do manufacturing companies need to achieve digital management?Let's take a look at what problems are encountered today?
First, a large number of traditional manual records, statistics, paper, non-standardized, information transmission efficiency is low
As a traditional manufacturing enterprise, the information degree of the warehouse is very low, so many warehousing, warehousing, warehouse transfer, inventory, business processes all rely on manual handwritten record business documents, casual, low accuracy, information transmission is not timely, resulting in a large number of the loss of information in invisible.
Two, the warehouse cargo space is not standard, goods piled up, difficult to find goods

The warehouse planning is not reasonable, there is no reasonable planning of cargo space resulting in the random placement of goods, resulting in the accumulation of goods and packaging damage, and the location of goods is not accurate, which increases the difficulty of finding goods.
Three, it is difficult to advance first out, dull materials more
Because it is a manual record of the goods storage time, there is no obvious identification distinction on the goods, employees in order to achieve the rapid convenience of the warehouse.Just find a number of the same goods out of the warehouse, resulting in difficult to ensure the advanced first out phenomenon, so the dull material, high inventory backlog.
IV, Lack of data management, no effective precipitation
Manual statistics and updating of warehouse data records, information statistical standards are inconsistent, paper warehouse data is not comprehensively sorted out, archived, and useful information is not passed on for value, which cannot be given to managers for effective data analysis.

V. Inventory data is not accurate enough, affecting the procurement, production and sales
After the completion of the entry and exit work, the staff uniformly input the data afterwards, resulting in the lag and inaccuracy of the inventory data, resulting in the lack of data support for procurement, production and sales, and many problems.For example, in order to avoid affecting the production and delivery, the procurement has to increase the purchase volume, but it causes a serious inventory backlog, the increase of semi-finished products and the increase of raw materials, which not only occupies the inventory, but also wastes a large amount of capital.
In order to better solve the above mentioned problems, it is very important for warehouse to realize digital management for manufacturing.Through the introduction of wms system, it can effectively break through the information barriers between the business flow, information flow, capital flow and logistics of the supply chain, realize the supply chain visual management, improve the decision support ability based on big data, build a fine warehouse management system, and realize the digital transformation and upgrading.
VI. Solutions
1. Promote business process upgrading
Daily work tasks need to be created on the wms system and pushed to each staff through RF, which is reducing the use of paper, avoiding the complicated process of finding people and paper documents in the traditional mode, and improving the efficiency of information transmission.
2. Standardization of the work industry process
Make the entry and exit operations standardized, and each employee needs to follow step by step the process on the PDA handheld equipment.For example, when warehousing, select the corresponding warehousing task, —— employees should use the PDA scanning system to instruct the shelf storage position —— to use the PDA scanning materials and finished barcode to verify, ensure that the accurate —— of materials and finished products enters the shelf quantity —— before submitting, and increase the inventory of materials and finished products of WMS system in real time.If there is a step or problem missing above, the completion of the warehousing will be prohibited, avoid the random work of employees, reduce the work of data input, and improve the accuracy of the work and the real-time of the inventory.

3. Reasonably divide the warehouse to improve the storage efficiency and goods finding efficiency
Through wms system position management, assist enterprises to reasonably divide the area, materials, semi-finished products, finished product area, return area, etc., and put the barcode label to distinguish and scan, plus wms system warehousing, outbound process, standardize each material, finished products, semi-finished products, reduce the accumulation, damage phenomenon, improve the warehouse utilization rate.
4. Batch management, advanced first out, reduce dull materials
The batch management function of wms system, combined with barcode technology, codes the unique barcode code for materials and finished products in each batch, and records its storage time.When going out of the warehouse, the system instructs the earliest materials and finished product warehouse according to the advanced exit strategy, and employees can scan the storage bar code, materials and finished products according to the instructions to complete the warehouse, so as to reduce the generation of stagnant materials and improve the inventory turnover rate.
5. Integrate other information systems
The wms system is scalable, which can integrate with SRM, ERP, SAP, MES and other systems, get through the multi-system data docking, realize the real-time system data back ERP, receiving instructions and MES ingredients requirements, which not only improves the collaboration between departments, but also saves the amount of data input operations and improves the efficiency of supply chain.
