Smart process modeling for a customized WMS.
Unlock customized support for your warehouse operations through flexible, standards-based software architecture and integrated graphical business process modeling. And when change comes, you can easily adapt your processes.
Modeling of a simple shipping process for sending out manually input consignments. We use BPMN to create transparency and a common understanding of processes – and identify the potential for optimization.
The BPMN modeler lets you quickly implement new requirements. The example shows new options integrated, including the automatic transfer of consignments to the system.
Connecting other standard business services makes it easy to integrate additional features and support more processes. The example shows how the Billing service was added to support features such as freight charge calculation in shipping.
