Barcode Scanning
Barcode scanning is a fundamental element of CargoWise’s warehouse management system (WMS), allowing for precise and efficient inventory tracking using barcode technology. Each item in the warehouse is labeled with a unique barcode that can be scanned with portable or mobile scanners. This enables warehouse personnel to swiftly identify, transfer, receive, or dispatch things with little human data entry, decreasing errors and increasing warehouse efficiency.
CargoWise incorporates barcode scanning into a variety of warehouse processes, including inbound reception, put-away, inventory checks, picking, packaging, and shipping. The system updates inventory levels and position data in real time as objects are scanned, providing comprehensive visibility and control over stock movement. This automation improves accuracy, eliminates the loss or misplacement of goods, and increases productivity by streamlining repetitive processes. Barcode scanning also aids compliance and reporting because each scanned transaction is recorded and traceable within the system.
