The Implementation of Barcode on Warehouse Management System for Warehouse Efficiency

Abstract

Technology has the power to affect and shape modern life aspects. Technology has speed up and simplify every task. One of those technologies that we currently use is Barcode. Barcode system can be implemented in the warehouse management system. By using Barcode in every process of the warehouse management system, it helps to minimize human error and provide accurate data in a real-time. Barcode also helps to integrate every process and improves efficiency in the warehouse management system. However, there are lots of warehouses that using manual handling. Therefore, in this research authors would like to discuss about the implementation of the barcode in the warehouse management system to improve warehouse efficiency. This research is conducted by using the qualitative method because this method will explain in depth the process in the warehouse management system as well as data collecting by conducting a semi-structural interview. Authors recommended barcode implementation in the warehouse management system to achieve warehouse efficiency.
