The focus areas for measuring the warehouse management process are
the main areas:
I. Efficiency In simple words, the warehouse team will have to complete the
acquisition and study how long the warehouse will take to remove the new
delivered purchase order. It’s a good idea to record the exact time:
1. New stock is being distributed.
2. When it is ready to keep the stock away.
3. Then the stock has been thrown out again. You can then calculate the
differences between the time between each point and work the average for the
month - Allows you to see how the performance is performing in this area of
your warehouse operations.
II. Rate of returns Every order or sale refund received cannot be due
to issues related to the warehouse. Therefore it is necessary to
categorize the reasons for the return. In this way, the warehouse or
operation manager can have high activity and start exploring the
reason for making policies to resolve.
III. Picking accuracy You can analyze picking accuracy by choosing the
Real Return Rate - Part of the data. To calculate the accuracy of the
selection, use your total number of data over the rate of return
IV Order lead time Order lead time (or order processing time) specifies that
how long it takes for the customer to order. You might want to divide it into
different categories. But generally, the low warehouse is a lead time, which
your customers will be happy with - as long as it is delivered in the right
conditions.
5.3 LOGISTICS IN WAREHOUSE
2. Overall handling Plan: Full content handling is considered. This includes the
transportation interval of materials from one place to another and used for
transportation purposes. In this phase, decisions should be taken based on the
basic needs of physical
4. Installation: No plans are applied till completion. After the plan is completed,
necessary steps are taken, such as physical handling facilities, buying equipment,
etc.
5.4 Locating Materials in a Warehouse
iv) It improves home maintenance and gives a streamlined and streamlined look at
the store.
Receive via Digital Mobile Scanner It is worth noting that mobile scanner
devices can make it faster and more accurate in the entire booking process.
Instead of having to sit on a computer and find and update each product
individually, you can: 1. Scan the product or purchase order 2. Update list
levels on mobile screens 3. Keep it away in the warehouse - make it a simpler
and faster process
Keep at the right place Temporary home in your acquired area,
without the risk of loss in the newly delivered stock, and people
must have enough space to do their due.
Update inventory list Make sure all stock layers are updated correctly on each
sales channel or list management system - that means it’s ready and ready for
purchase.

• Incorrect or Incomplete Paperwork: Mistakes in shipping documents, such
as incorrect addresses, missing information, or inaccurate customs
documentation, can lead to delays and additional costs.
Communication Breakdowns:
• Poor Communication with Stakeholders: Ineffective communication
between shippers, carriers, and receivers can result in misunderstandings,
delays, and disruptions.
Supply Chain Disruptions:
• Supplier Issues: Problems with suppliers, such as delays in
providing raw materials, can affect the entire supply chain and
shipment schedules.
Inventory Management:
• Stockouts or Overstock: Inaccurate inventory management can lead
to stockouts or overstock situations, impacting the ability to fulfill
orders efficiently.
Technology Challenges:
• Outdated Systems: Using outdated technology for tracking and managing
shipments can lead to inefficiencies and errors.
Capacity Constraints:
• Limited Carrier Capacity: During peak seasons or unforeseen events,
carriers may face capacity constraints, leading to delays in booking and
transit.
Environmental Concerns:
• Sustainability Issues: Increasing focus on environmental sustainability may
lead to restrictions or changes in transportation methods, impacting
