Separate Quantity Related Info With Other Product Info

Actual information like quantity and pallet information often requires receiving staff to count and record on upon receiving. This means it takes time to generate bar code labels that needs such information, often creating a bottle-neck. 

To ease this bottleneck, provide the putaway staff with running number bar code that they can stick on pallets, and associate this bar code with a receiving master tag or bar code label. He or she can key in the sighted/counted info like quantity and/or pallets. This eases the bottleneck in waiting for all the information to be keyed in for a complete label to be generated.

The master tag or bar code can be on the receiving document that the putaway staff can hold on to and scan, to associate with the running number labels on the pallets of products.
