With the advent of the era of e-commerce, information technology has undoubtedly become an important means for enterprises to improve production efficiency and enhance product market competitiveness. Therefore, enterprises have implemented management information systems such as ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning System) to help enterprises improve operational efficiency and management level, so that enterprises can cope with the rapid changes of the market and maximize the satisfaction of all aspects of production, supply and marketing. Customer needs.
The implementation of ERP system puts forward higher requirements for the real-time and accuracy of information in the process of sales, production and logistics. To exert the powerful performance of ERP, an efficient execution system is needed to coordinate the planning and production operations. Manage and track and report on the implementation status of the plan in a timely manner. Due to the low overall level of China's manufacturing industry, the small scale of investment, the quality of employees needs to be improved, and the information base is relatively weak. These have seriously hindered the implementation of enterprise ERP, and may even lead to the failure of ERP system implementation.
The application of bar code technology can provide an effective basis for strengthening enterprise management. Here is an example: Ningbo Luomeng Group was founded in 1984. It is a famous large-scale garment enterprise. It has been ranked among China's top ten famous brand suits, with an annual output of over one million sets. It has established 30 sales companies and four in the country. More than 100 specialty stores. In 2002, Luomen adopted the Kingdee K3ERP system, but the collection and transmission of business data remained in the manual state, which almost caused the failure of the ERP system. The Romon suit has more than two hundred styles, each of which has more than twenty sizes. The operation mode of the warehouse is to send orders to the headquarters by the local specialty stores or dealers. After processing in the K3 system, the warehouse receipts are issued, and the warehouse workers pick and ship the goods.
In the manual operation, the style is basically not wrong, but the size is often misplaced, which leads to two problems: one is to send the wrong goods, affect the sales of the store and the reputation of the company (many goods are reserved by the customer); After the wrong goods were sent, the actual inventory of the warehouse and the data in the K3 system deviated, and the accumulated accounts were seriously inconsistent, which affected the operation of the K3 system. Moreover, manual check of picking is inefficient and labor intensive. In order to strengthen warehouse management, Luomeng suits purchased bar code printers and data collectors, equipped with warehouses in Ningbo headquarters, and printed bar codes associated with styles and sizes on suit tags. When the warehouse picks goods, download the library instructions from the K3 system. In the data collector, the warehouse worker scans the barcode on the tag to check the style and size when picking the goods. It is not the goods collector in the outbound order that will prompt, pick or miss, the collector will also prompt, after the work is completed, the collector will collect The data in the device is submitted to the K3 system to print out the warehouse order. In this way, the work error is greatly reduced, the labor efficiency is greatly improved, and the data accuracy of the K3 system is guaranteed. In the next step, Luomeng is preparing to purchase data collectors for all the stores in the country, establish a sales automation system, strengthen the management of terminal sales, speed up the feedback of retail information, and lay the foundation for further development of the company.
Luo Meng's example shows that the bar code technology provides the best data collection means for the execution layer of the enterprise's manufacturing and inventory management. The bar code technology is used to collect and process the relevant data, instead of the original manual record information operation, avoiding the operation. Due to the misplacement of information caused by repeated and cumbersome manual operations, and improving work efficiency, the accuracy of information collection is ensured, so that process information can be collected accurately and timely, helping enterprises to greatly improve production efficiency and management level. .
Barcode technology involves four aspects: label technology, coding technology, recognition technology and printing technology. Usually, a bar code application system should include three modules: bar code scanning, bar code information collection and processing, and information feedback back to the central database.
Material and inventory management: Materials play a leading role in the enterprise information system. Planning, procurement, manufacturing, inventory, cost calculation and sales are all carried out around “materials”. Printed into barcodes by code, which facilitates material tracking management, and helps to make reasonable material inventory preparation, improve production efficiency, and shorten the occupation time of enterprise funds.
Bar code technology is adopted. In the inventory management, the corresponding materials can be classified according to the barcode after the receipt, and the difference is placed. The warehouse data can be tracked according to the actual situation, and the inventory inaccuracy and the inbound and outbound products cannot be tracked. The use of bar code technology can also more accurately complete the inventory outbound operation.
By collecting the single piece of information of the goods, processing the collected data, establishing the inbound, outbound, transfer, and inventory data of the inventory, so that the inventory operation is completed more accurately. Especially after the wireless bar code data terminal, wireless login point and central data server are used to form a wireless job storage management system, data and instructions can be transmitted in real time and accurately, so that the operator and the management system can interact flexibly and realize a smooth workflow. Really make logistics a part of the corporate supply chain. Barcode technology provides the best data collection method for the execution layer of the enterprise's manufacturing and inventory management, helping the company to greatly improve the efficiency and management level of production operations.
Production management: In the production management, the order number, part type, product quantity, number and process route are formed into barcodes, printed or pasted on the product parts, and the raw materials, semi-finished products, and in-process materials can be processed through data collection. Tracking, and can transfer product processing information point-to-point to automatic edge banding machine, automatic drilling, machining center and other computer numerical control equipment, without manual intervention, improve accuracy and timeliness. Using barcode technology, products The production process provides immediate, effective response on the production line, eliminating manual tracking.
At the same time, the production process of products (orders) can be displayed on the computer, and bottlenecks in production, rapid statistics and query production data can be found, providing basis for production scheduling, scheduling, etc., so as to fully achieve the purpose of real-time monitoring of production. Bar code data acquisition system provides accurate statistical data for ERP production management. It can be divided into different time periods, production plans, products and real-time statistics of production reports. It can count the production of production plants, the number of production lines, the workload of packaging lines, and the completion of products. Such as production data, and can provide a strong guarantee for enterprise cost management. In addition to supplementing the functions of ERP production management in enterprise production management, bar code technology can also be divided into enterprise CIMS system to provide support, and provide guarantee for enterprises to apply CAPP technology and implement process informationization.
Other applications: article quality management and analysis, market sales chain management and product after-sales tracking services, etc., will also use bar code as a management tool to effectively carry out quality control management, sales of string management and improve customer service quality. Here is the barcode The successful application of technology in Kelon Refrigerator Co., Ltd.: batch bar code management for parts warehouse, serial bar code management for key components (such as compressor), warehouse operation is managed according to bar code information, and integrated with ERP system . On the production line, various types of refrigerators are produced by mixed lines. Some automated equipment (such as condensate filling) reads the barcode on the whole machine to identify the model and complete the operation. At the same time, the assembly process is for the parts. The batch barcode and the serial barcode are collected to provide basic information for the quality inspection and after-sales service system; at the inspection station, the industrial barcode platform scans the product serial code on the whole machine and records it in the database corresponding to the detection data. In the finished product warehouse, the operation is also controlled and recorded by bar code, including the serial barcode of the dealer to extract the goods, providing information security for after-sales service and control of the goods.
The application of bar code technology can provide an effective basis for strengthening enterprise management, and can overcome the shortcomings of traditional paper work, such as labor intensity, low efficiency, error prone, repeated data entry, processing delay, and large workload, and greatly improve ERP basic data. Accuracy of collection, at the same time, can play an important role in improving product quality, objectively evaluating suppliers, reducing costs, formulating reasonable service strategies, and strengthening control and management of the market.
