Setup

Back Top Previous Next

Initiating Jim2 Advanced Warehouse Management is a fairly big job.

 

The system must be told how the warehouse is laid out, the order of picking stock, the order of replenishing stock, and so on – all before realistically use the functionality.

 

There are no shortcuts – everything must be set up in the order and detail as explained here.

1.Prepare the warehouse.

Jim2 Advanced Warehouse Management is a system that manages picking and packing within the warehouse. It allocates stock to predetermined bins based on the criteria entered into the system.

2.Install the Jim2 licence file to enable Warehousing (obtain that licence file from support@happen.biz).

This is a small file with the extension .j2k, that will be emailed from Happen Business. Save the licence file on the server in C:\Program Files\Happen Business\Jim2.

3.There are three major tasks associated with the initial setup of warehousing:

Warehouse Management – setting the basic parameters.

Stock Bins – defining the warehouse layout and bin numbering.

Allocate Stock to Bins – initial stock transfer.
