问题                     Features of Warehouse Management System
    Warehouse Management Systems are gaining importance similar to that of other software solutions. A typical warehouse management system would include controlling the movement of materials and the storage of the materials. Though these functionalities are very basic, the warehouse management system is expanding its functionalities to include light manufacturing, transportation management, order management, and integrated with the accounting systems. Now warehouse management systems are transforming into warehouse focused ERP(Enterprise Resource planning)system.
    It is found that there are overlaps in the functionality of the warehouse management and the enterprise resource planning, distribution requirements planning, transportation management systems, supply chain planning and scheduling. If all these are to have separate software, the company that is using the software will get confused with the software solution provided separately. Hence there is a need for an integrated system that will have warehouse management and other related operations of the company.
    There are many software vendors who provide warehouse management software. Although there are many vendors, the basic functionality of the warehouse management system is not changed. The primary purpose is to control the movement and storage of the materials. A good warehouse management system would have a flexible location system, get user defined parameters to direct warehouse tasks and use live documents for execution of the tasks. Some form of integration with other devices is possible so that the warehouse management system gets live data from other devices connected to it.
    Not every warehouse will need a warehouse management system. If the operation of the warehouse is continuous and very frequent with a lot of transactions per day then a warehouse management system would justify the cost involved in setting it up. A lot of initial setup is to be done to keep the data warehouse management systems to run and to keep the current operation on the run. There must be a smooth transition from the current system to the warehouse management system. Often a separate department is set up to monitor the operations of the warehouse and to use the information system related to that of the warehouse management system.
    Automated data collection in the warehouse management system would reduce the cost in the labour and increase the accuracy of the data. It increases the effectiveness of the service provided to the customer by reducing the cycle time. Inventory reduction and increased storage capacity are less likely. The level of safety stock can be reduced while increasing the efficiency of the system.
Which is a feature of a good warehouse management system in directing warehouse tasks?
选项 A、The performance should be based on the set location of materials.
B、The operation should be based on data attained before operation.
C、The tasks should be fulfilled by adjusting to different requirements from the user.
答案C
解析 题干意为：哪一项是良好的仓储管理系统指挥仓储任务时的特点?A项意为：将操作基于固定的材料地点，B项意为：运行过程基于运作过程前获得的参数，C项意为：根据用户的不同需要进行调整。原文第三段第四行提到：“好的仓储管理系统应该有灵活的地点机制，获取用户制定的参数指导仓储任务，并使用实时文献数据进行运作。”由此可推出A项地点是固定的说法错误，而“实时”的文献数据说明操作中要根据情况运作，而不是按照操作前的数据进行运作，所以B项错误，而C项正确，故答案为C。
