The Materials Management Tool (MMT) is a modular software application that is designed to allow improved efficiency and accuracy at the shop floor.
The MMT is specifically designed to provide operators, the ability to perform speedy, and accurate warehouse operations. It is optimised for small screen terminals, although it may be run on any size terminal that has bar code reading capabilities. MMT minimises the amount of typing that an operator must perform by supporting bar codes wherever possible.
There are standard “off-the-shelf” functions including Goods Receipt, Put Away, Picking, Simple Packing, Physical Inventory and Utilities. Customised functions may also be built to cater for any customer requirements.
Many larger accounting and inventory systems require significant timely and accurate data entry for them to operate effectively. This can be difficult in a warehouse environment due to the throughput of stock and the time taken to complete paperwork for submission to a data entry department. MMT provides a simple “off-the-shelf” solution providing work control task dissemination and data collection seamlessly integrated to the host system.

Asset information is brought down to a local PC from a central accounting/asset management application, then transferred to a hand held bar code scanner. Once the bar coded assets have been located and scanned, the information flow is reversed, and the host asset management system is updated with the most recent information available.
Assets may be tracked using their Asset Number or Inventory/Tag Number.

Customer and product details are downloaded to the mobile terminal. The salesperson then has the ability to retrieve details regarding a client such as contact name, address, telephone numbers and credit limits. They can also search their product database to determine stock availability, costs, variants, and other information.
The salesperson can then create an electronic sales order while on the customer’s site by scanning the bar code on existing stock, and entering the quantity required.
Periodically, the created sales orders are sent to the host for seamless order creation. Updated customer and product details are synchronised also.

Goods Receiver – Counts inwards goods against Purchase Orders or ASNs.
Goods Receiver
- Receive against a purchase order
- Receive without purchase order
- Add/Change/Delete mode for counting quantities of material received
- Delivery complete selection available
- View available purchase orders
This product will allow an operator to enter a purchase order number and obtain the expected line items for receipt.
Actual materials, quantities, and batch numbers (if appropriate) are captured by the operator and a confirmation sent to the host.
If a customer requires a more complex solution, then the appropriateness of MMT should be investigated. Likewise, if goods receiving against other types of documents were required, such as ASNs, Production Orders, Returns, or Manufacturer Returns, MMT would be a more suitable product.
Stock Picker – Portable PDA picking. Fast, cost effective and accurate.
Stock Picker
- Picking against a pre-prepared pick slip
- Immediate issuing against a cost centre or sales order number
- Add/Change/Delete mode for counting the quantities of material picked
- View available picking lists
This product will accept pick slip requirements from the host and display these for the operator to complete. Pick confirmations will be sent to the host.
There will also be the ability to manually “create” a picking list. This has the effect of performing a “shopping expedition” whereby the operator goes around with the data capture device, and selects the desired material manually. This is then entered into the data capture device and updated into the inventory management system as an “open warehouse” type of invoice.
If a customer requires a more complex solution, then the appropriateness of MMT should be investigated.
