Logistics distribution center operation process?

Workflow of Logistics Distribution Center

I. Storage of Goods

1. The logistics distribution center conducts corresponding warehousing acceptance according to the warehousing instructions and warehousing conditions of customers.

2. Check and accept the goods according to the signed contract, and print out the receipt and delivery documents according to the warehouse location in the reservoir area assigned to the goods.

3. Before the goods are officially put into storage, the goods shall be inspected and processed, and the goods put into storage shall be numbered uniformly (including contract number, batch number, storage date, etc.). ).

4. Then, the cargo location is allocated, which is mainly to automatically or manually arrange the cargo locations without pre-allocation in advance to generate a cargo location list.

5. Inventory management is mainly to make statistical inquiry on some dynamic information of goods in the warehouse.

6. For the goods in the warehouse, the logistics company will also carry out batch number management, inventory processing, internal barge processing and inventory optimization, so as to manage the warehouse more effectively.

Second, transportation and distribution.

1. The logistics distribution center makes corresponding distribution according to the customer's delivery instructions and inventory.

2. According to the distribution planning system, vehicles, personnel and applications will be automatically delivered out of the warehouse.

3. According to the selected factors, the special person is responsible for the allocation of goods, which can be divided into automatic distribution and manual distribution, so as to make more efficient use of the resources at hand of the logistics company.

4. According to the arrangement result of the system, make manual adjustment according to the actual situation.

5. After sorting, the system will print out the picking list according to the location (location) of the goods and the optimization principle set by the logistics company itself.

6. The carrier picks up the goods from the warehouse with the delivery list, and the other end of the warehouse handles the corresponding delivery.

7. After loading, print out the corresponding delivery note according to the number of passengers sent.

8. Vehicles can be monitored at any time through the GPS vehicle positioning system during transportation, and information can be communicated in time.

9. When the goods arrive at the destination, they will be confirmed by the one-way logistics distribution center after being confirmed by the cargo side.

10. Generate all required statistical analysis data and financial settlement, and generate receivables and payables.

Distribution process

First, the main operation of distribution

(1) stocking

Preparation and basic work of distribution. Purchase work includes purchasing, ordering, purchasing, receiving, purchasing goods and related quality inspection, settlement and handover.

One advantage of distribution is that it can concentrate the needs of several users for a certain scale of stocking. Stocking is the initial work that determines the success or failure of distribution. If the cost of stocking is too high, the benefits of distribution will be greatly reduced.

(2) storage

There are two storage forms in distribution: reserve and temporary storage.

1. Reserved

Distribution reserve is the resource guarantee of distribution according to the requirements of distribution operation in a certain period. This kind of reserve has a large number and a perfect reserve structure. According to the supply and arrival situation, the structure and quantity of turnover reserve and insurance reserve can be determined in a planned way. The reserve guarantee of distribution is sometimes solved by setting up a separate warehouse near the distribution center.

Step 2: Temporary storage

Another storage form is temporary storage, which is a small amount of storage preparation at the tally site according to the requirements of sorting and distribution during distribution. Because the overall storage benefit depends on the total storage volume, this part of the temporary storage volume will only affect the convenience of work, but will not affect the total storage benefit, so the quantity control is not strict.

There is also a form of temporary storage, that is, temporary storage of delivered goods after sorting and distribution. This temporary storage is mainly to adjust the delivery rhythm, and the temporary storage time is not long.

(3) Sorting and distributing goods

Sorting distribution is a characteristic functional element that distinguishes distribution from other logistics forms, and it is also an important supporting work for the success or failure of distribution. Sorting and distribution is the preparation for improving and supporting delivery, and it is an inevitable extension of competition among different delivery enterprises and improving their own economic benefits. Therefore, it can also be said that delivery is an inevitable requirement for the development of advanced forms. With sorting and distribution, the service level of distribution will be greatly improved, so sorting and distribution is the key factor to determine the level of distribution system.

(4) assembly

When the delivery quantity of a single user can't reach the effective load of the vehicle, there is a problem of how to concentrate the delivery goods of different users and carry out matching loading to make full use of the transportation capacity, which requires matching.

Different from general distribution, collection can greatly improve the distribution level and reduce the distribution cost, so collection is also a functional element with modern characteristics in the distribution system, which is an important difference between modern distribution and traditional distribution.

(5) Distribution and transportation

Distribution transportation belongs to terminal transportation and feeder transportation. The main difference from the general transportation mode is that distribution transportation is a transportation mode with shorter distance, smaller scale and higher frequency. Generally, small vehicles such as cars are used as transportation tools.

Another difference with trunk line transportation is that there is no route selection problem in general trunk line transportation, and the trunk line of trunk line transportation is the only transportation route. However, due to the large number of distribution users and the complex traffic routes in general cities, how to form the best route and how to effectively match the equipment and routes are the characteristics of distribution and transportation, and it is also a difficult point.
