Increasing order volumes, growing labor shortages, and rising expectations regarding quality and delivery performance are creating major challenges for warehouse operations. At the same time, manual picking processes often lead to picking errors, long search times, and extensive training efforts.
With Pick-by-Light and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM), companies establish the foundation for faster, more transparent, and more accurate picking processes. Operators are visually guided directly at the storage location, while SAP EWM centrally manages warehouse tasks, inventory, and process execution.
Qinlox supports companies in the design, integration, and optimization of Pick-by-Light solutions based on SAP EWM, from the initial process assessment through to productive operations.
SAP EWM centrally controls warehouse tasks, inventory, and process execution within the warehouse organization. The Pick-by-Light system supports operational execution directly at the storage location through visual signals and clear quantity displays.
Warehouse operators are guided intuitively through the picking process, while confirmations are transmitted directly back to SAP EWM. The result is a transparent, end-to-end process flow without system discontinuities or manual intermediate steps.
The greatest value of Pick-by-Light does not stem from the light modules themselves, but from the seamless integration into SAP EWM. The result is measurable benefits for both warehouse operations and IT.
The greatest benefit of Pick-by-Light is not derived from the light modules themselves, but from their integration into the broader warehouse process landscape.
SAP EWM centrally controls warehouse tasks, resources, inventory, and confirmations. This ensures complete transparency across all processes and enables seamless integration into goods receipt, production supply, packaging, and shipping processes.
Unlike isolated point solutions, this approach creates a fully integrated end-to-end process chain within the SAP logistics landscape. The importance of direct integration and a reduced system footprint is emphasized both in Qinlox project experience and in numerous industry reference implementations.
