DiamondWare Warehouse Execution System™ WES 3.0

Work Planning verifies the availability of inventory and labor to fulfill orders and releases orders to fulfillment areas in a manner that ensures the highest possible productivity. This module includes several components, such as replenishment, slotting, waveless release, and manpower planning.

Order Processing is the host interface to which orders are downloaded. Orders are then directly executed by the various fulfillment modules or they proceed through the waveless release process. This module manages all types of paperless and automated picking technologies and includes order routing and cubing.

Material Flow handles sortation control, zone routing, and buffer management.

The Shipping Module prints container content lists for all items picked into a container. These lists can also be produced on RFID tags, making WES the first split case picking system integrated with RFID.

The Management Support Suite ties together the mechanical systems, fulfillment software and supervisory personnel to ensure a well-managed operation. This module includes productivity reporting, graphical user interface (GUI) systems monitoring, mobile management via handheld devices and a maintenance management component which enables the maintenance department to be proactive in maintaining equipment.
