Master data logistics

Master data: the basis for all warehouse and logistics tasks

To ensure optimal handling of goods and merchandise, a permanent exchange of relevant information is necessary. These are referred to as master data and contain information on product properties. Only through this data preparation is it possible to optimize and efficiently process picking and storage.

To ensure better handling, the system is categorized according to article master, customer master and supplier master. The master data typically includes the following information:

  • Item number
  • Article description
  • Article image
  • Dimensions and weight
  • Customer name
  • Customer or delivery address
  • Industry
  • Supplier name
  • Supplier address
  • Terms and conditions

In short, powerful warehouse management software allows master data to be used to its full potential, making the best possible use of existing resources. This makes it possible to define criteria for storage areas, avoid picking errors or better dimension and adapt storage areas.
