Wholesale & Warehouse Software FAQ
The COSYS software is basically modular to allow for later expansion of the software. In addition to the wholesale software, COSYS can also make use of mobile hardware from COSYS, i.e. buy, borrow or lease devices. This gives wholesalers a central point of contact for digital processes with comprehensive services and support.
In the SHK sector, many wholesalers already work with the COSYS software. Different company structures, internal processes and special services result in basically similar workflows, processes and requirements. Nevertheless, customer-specific processes can also be mapped by configuring the software through COSYS.
The printed EAN code can also be used as a reference to an article. Provided that the number sequences of the EAN/manufacturer article number(s) are managed in the master data, the PDC software can reference a wide variety of fields and thus identify the article by the EAN and also other article numbers. This functionality reduces costs, as the creation of own labels can be omitted. The recording of the goods receipt is also considerably easier, as the article can be clearly recorded under a wide variety of designations.
The COSYS software is configured customer specific. Usually there are one or a few processes that cause an above-average number of problems and require a lot of time. These business processes, such as goods receipt or returns recording, can already be implemented in a first small sub-project - without starting directly into a large project. By operating a first process, the employees already get used to the MDE systems and also recognize the advantages for themselves. Further processes are thus supported by the employees and basic business logics can already be built upon.
C-parts are existentially important for producers, craftsmen and end users. Despite their importance, supply by wholesalers must be cost-efficient and fast. The customers´ reordering process can already be used to map this efficiently and digitally. Your customers can already use MDEs to record the materials they have used and the wholesaler can arrange for subsequent delivery.
DIY stores expect their suppliers to deliver orders promptly, correctly and pre-sorted. This pre-sorting must be carried out on the basis of shipping units so that the distribution center can quickly distinguish whether the shipping unit is a store delivery or a warehouse delivery in order to enable fast handling. To ensure that this picking process can take place without errors, a well-sorted warehouse with digital goods receipts is required in advance.
Flexibility is part of the business model and therefore returns can also be recorded. This is usually referenced to a delivery order, so the employee sees which items were sent to the customer and records the returned parts. Depending on the type, parts must be checked according to quality assurance or end up back in the warehouse as an addition after visual inspection.
Inventories are a burdensome duty that are required by law. Nevertheless, an inventory must be carried out and it creates a valid data basis about the stocks. It makes little sense to only check whether the book inventory is also available, but to count with open eyes what is available. High inventory costs are incurred due to the downtime of productive business operations and the many hours spent on rework. For example, paper-based inventory lists must be evaluated, entered into the ERP system, and then the difference list must still be printed out and cross-checked again. Instead, a digital inventory solution from COSYS provides the ability to quickly and easily count area by count area using loaner equipment. The results also produce a difference list that can then be recounted by a secondary counter. This results in fewer interruptions to business operations and reduced rework time.
There are a few ways in which you can optimize the warehouse. First of all, it is important to make sure that all the shelves are neatly placed and all the items are properly labeled. This way you can quickly and easily see where everything is and what you need. Barcodes, which are already applied to over 90% of products, help to further optimize the process. Storage locations can also be labeled with them, helping to avoid confusion in the warehouse and keep accurate inventories. Additionally, it can be helpful to use inventory management software. This software allows you to accurately manage and monitor your warehouse. Items can be easily created, inventory can be viewed, and you can set notifications to reorder in a timely manner.

Inventory is the number of a company´s goods that are for sale. This includes both physical goods and digital products. The level of inventory is determined by the demand and sales of the products. Companies usually try to keep their inventory as low as possible to save costs. If a company operates its own production, safety stocks still ensure that production can continue permanently to avoid costly interruptions.
There are a few ways to reduce inventory. First, you can try to keep the products you sell most often at the top and push those that sell less often to the back. This way, you can make sure you always have enough products on hand without cluttering up your warehouse. A smaller assortment lowers costs. Another option is to review your order quantity and reduce it if necessary. For example, if you find that you are only selling an average of 10 pieces of a particular product per month, you could try reducing your order to 5 or even 3 pieces per month. This way, your warehouse will stay empty and there will be less waste. Also, there is the possibility to lower the risk of inventory, for example, by setting up a consignment warehouse, this way the goods are physically in your warehouse and you only pay when you use the material.
Average inventory varies by company and industry. In general terms, average inventory is a combination of the value you hold for your business and the risk you are willing to take. There are several ways to calculate average inventory. One method is to average it over a period of time. This can be a year, a quarter, or a month. Averaging gives you an indication of the typical inventory levels in your business. Another method is to calculate the optimized inventory level. This level varies depending on what variables you include in the calculation. For example, you can calculate the optimal inventory level of stocked goods so that you minimize inventory holding costs and supply chain outages. If you think your current inventory is below the average level, you can consider ordering more stock items. On the other hand, if you think your current inventory is above the average level, you can consider ordering fewer stock goods.

The stock is checked using a scanner that captures the barcodes on the products. This scanner is connected to our COSYS software so that the current stock level can be displayed at any time. The process is quick and easy and allows us to know the exact stock.
There are some important principles that should be followed when storing goods. Firstly, it is important that the goods are properly labeled and marked so that they can be easily found later. Secondly, it is important to store the goods in a dry and clean place to avoid mold or other damage. Some goods must be stored separately, others in cold storage. The goods do not get better the longer they lie, so regular stock rotation should be aimed for.
