All machines are linked via Ethernet or serial ports. Integration of an SQL-Express database is provided. Material management Material management allows you to add, edit and delete material and materialrelevant data. A material may have individual properties, or belong to a family of materials, thus allowing material- specific pick and put-strategies (FIFO). Material management allows allocation of different location types and material storage without specification of quantities. Bin management Storage locations are represented by bins. A bin can be imagined as a box or container having x/y and z dimensions thus defining the available space required for the material to be stored. Bins are available as standard bins, container bins or divisible bins. The layout of a bin can be changed and adjusted any time. Manual operation Pick and put and return operations can also be performed without previous order placement. Power Pick Global contains a set of features to perform these un planned transactions.

6 Package CP Communicator Pro For ERP- and Warehouse Management Systems Increasing performance and efficiency in your warehouse. Communicator Pro is the storage solution for all enterprises that already utilize an ERP or WMS system while striving to get even more performance from their dynamic storage systems from Kardex. Communicator Pro modules offer hostcontrolled picking, putting and counting. Other functions are the elimination of duplicate inventories, simple host downloads and host-maintained inventory, stock levels and location management. Host locations can be mapped to Power Pick Global locations using a translation formula. Host-controlled Location Management The leading host system manages the actual storage locations for picking and putting operations. Material, inventories, strategies and all other storage activities in connection with location management are managed directly by the host system. During order processing, capacities are virtually activated in order to enable optimal access to shelves and storage locations and control the various storage devices in an optimized way. Other applications such as batching, optimized picking, pick/pack lights, task processing or asynchronous transactions can be utilized too. Automatic Host Interface The automatic host interface is a general interface allowing the bidirectional transfer of material master data and order-related data with a host system. Data can be transferred by standard text files (ASCII text files), CSV or XML files, database tables (ODBC), or via specific host interfaces such as SAP IDOCs, BaaN - protocols or data loops. Online connection to host is possible. The following functions are available: Material master data synchronization with host, order synchronization with host, action result reporting (booking list export), inventory orders and kit list import.
