First, give conclusions that can be used for decision-making
The goal of stock migration is to establish a credible starting point for the new system. Commodities, units, batches, serial numbers, validity periods, storage positions, freezing and in-transit status are mapped; the uncompleted procurement, sales, transfers and return documents of the old system are to decide whether to continue processing, closing down or moving. The shorter the freeze, the higher the requirements for preparation and automatic verification, the higher the return option must be maintained simultaneously.
What conditions need to be identified before judgement is made?
The same question may have different answers under different business, data and project phases. It is suggested that the following conditions be checked and that the common findings on the web be incorporated into their own projects.
Suggested order of advance
First, we'll be clear about the target and the border.
Clears the commodity, unit, storage and status code.
Validation Key Dependence
(c) Establish deadlines and rules for the treatment of documents in transit.
Development of assessable outcomes
Perform physical inventory, import and volume detail verification.
Make sure you decide the next step with the real results.
Switch exercise completed, and reconciliations were performed continuously after the start of line and differences were processed.
How do you understand it in the actual business?
The inventory of the warehouse contains 100 items, but 10 items are pending inspection, 5 items are frozen and distributed at three storage levels. Only the total number of moving items will prevent WMS from directing the bank, and initial inventory must be established in the available condition and location.
The easiest pit to step on.
Only the total amount of inventory is checked, not the batch and the warehouse
The old system continues to generate documents when switched
Manual changes directly after discrepancies are detected, no reasons for retention and approval
How should we end up receiving and confirming?
The migration acceptance should include master data mapping, inventory records, import logs, volume and detail reconciliations, sample results, differences processing, documents in transit, switchover and back exercise.
When preparing to communicate with suppliers or internal teams, it is recommended that current processes, representative samples, existing systems, planning time and budget levels be brought. First, the unknown items are clearly marked, and then the decision is made to use diagnostics, PoC, fixed-range projects or ongoing research and development, which is usually more reliable than a direct demand for a price and duration without borders.
