A qualified warehouse management system has many functions. I hope it will help you to list them briefly. First, a qualified warehouse management system should be able to provide a perfect data interface with enterprise ERP system, and at the same time, it can provide hardware interfaces, such as hand-held barcode scanning terminals and barcode printers.

First of all, we should have the function of warehouse setting management:

Include the following information:

Warehouse setting management, warehouse location setting management, reservoir setting management, warehouse resource classification management and warehouse query mode setting management.

Second, the task management function (this is the most basic function)
