[0039] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] At present, when warehouse pickers pick goods from a picking list / tally list, they need to compare the material number, LOT, and DC. When the material number is long or the LOT is long, the probability of error is greatly increased, and the picking time is increased, which affects the picking efficiency. Based on this, a material management method, device, equipment, and computer-readable storage medium provided in an embodiment of the present invention can improve the picking speed and accuracy rate, thereby improving the picking efficiency.

[0041] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a material management method disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention is first introduced in detail.

[0042] The embodiment of the present invention provides a material management method, which can be executed by a material management device with data processing capability, and the material management device can be, but is not limited to, a label printing device. Figure 1 The schematic diagram of a material management method shown in FIG. 1 mainly includes the following steps S102 to S106:

[0043] Step S102, obtaining the inventory number and material information of the incoming goods.

[0044] The inventory number and material information of incoming goods can be obtained by scanning with a scanning device. The material information may include the material number, production batch number, production date, etc.

[0045] Step S104, determining a target material control method according to the inventory number and pre-configured material control information, wherein the target material control method includes a first-in-first-out method, management by production batch number, or management by production date.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present invention, basic customer information including customer identification is pre-created, and a material control method is configured for each customer. The material control method can be one of the first-in-first-out method, management by production batch number, and management by production date, etc. The material control information is composed of all customer identifications and their corresponding material control methods. For example, the material control information includes customer identification 1 and the first-in-first-out method corresponding to customer identification 1, customer identification 2 and the management by production batch number corresponding to customer identification 2, customer identification 3 and the management by production date corresponding to customer identification 3, customer identification 4 and the management by production batch number corresponding to customer identification 4, and other information.

[0047] The inventory number and the customer ID are bound together. Based on this, the above step S104 can be implemented through the following process: determine the target customer ID corresponding to the inventory number; search for the target customer ID in the pre-configured material control information, and obtain the target material control method corresponding to the target customer ID.

[0048] Step S106: Generate a picking code with a preset number of digits according to the target material control method and material information, so that the picking personnel can pick the incoming goods based on the picking code.

[0049] In order to ensure the picking efficiency, on the basis of ensuring that the picking code is unique, the above preset digits are less than or equal to the preset value, which can be set according to actual needs. For example, if the preset value is 6, the preset digits can be set to 4, that is, a four-digit picking code is generated.

[0050] Based on this, the above step S106 can be specifically as follows: when the target material control method is the first-in-first-out method, a four-digit picking code is generated according to the material number in the material information, so that the picking code includes the material number information; when the target material control method is managed by production batch number, a four-digit picking code is generated according to the material number and production batch number in the material information, so that the picking code includes the material number and production batch number information; when the target material control method is managed by production date, a four-digit picking code is generated according to the material number and production date in the material information, so that the picking code includes the material number and production date information. In this way, the pickers do not need to perform tedious verification work when picking, but only need to check the four-digit picking code, which realizes fast picking and greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of picking.

[0051] In specific implementation, the inventory number of the incoming goods can be obtained by scanning with a scanning device, and the target material control method can be determined based on the inventory number and pre-configured material control information. The material information of the incoming goods can then be scanned with a scanning device, and the picking code can be generated based on the target material control method and material information.

[0052] The material management method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: obtaining the inventory number and material information of the incoming goods; determining the target material control method according to the inventory number and the pre-configured material control information, the target material control method including the first-in-first-out method, management by production batch number or management by production date; generating a picking code with a preset number of digits according to the target material control method and the material information, so that the picking personnel can pick the incoming goods based on the picking code. In this way, it is only necessary to configure the material control information of the customer, and when the inventory number and material information of the incoming goods are obtained, the picking code with a preset number of digits corresponding to the incoming goods can be generated according to the material control method of the corresponding customer. In this way, the picking personnel only need to check the picking code with the preset number of digits when picking. Compared with the method in the prior art that needs to check the material number, production batch number and production date, the picking speed and accuracy are greatly improved, thereby improving the picking efficiency.

[0053] For ease of understanding, the material management method is described in detail by taking the material management device as a label printing device, the target material control method as management by production batch number, and the preset number of digits as 4 as an example. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of another material management method shown in FIG. 1 , wherein the method comprises the following steps:

[0054] Step S202, obtaining newly added control configuration information, where the control configuration information includes a first customer identifier and a first material control method corresponding thereto.

[0055] Step S204, determining whether there is a material control method corresponding to the first customer identifier in the current material control information.

[0056] When the judgment result is no, execute step S206, and when the judgment result is yes, execute step S208.

[0057] Step S206, adding the management and control configuration information to the material management and control information.

[0058] Step S208: Update the material control method corresponding to the first customer identifier in the material control information to the first material control method.

[0059] Through the above steps S202 to S208, the configuration and management of the customer's material control method can be realized.

[0060] Step S210, obtaining the inventory number of the incoming goods by scanning with a scanning device.

[0061] Step S212: According to the inventory number and the above material control information, determine that the target material control method is management by production batch number.

[0062] Step S214, scanning the incoming goods to obtain the material number and production batch number through a scanning device.

[0063] Step S216: Generate a four-digit picking code based on the material number and production batch number.

[0064] Step S218: Print a picking label displaying the picking code.

[0065] The above-mentioned picking labels are used to be affixed to the corresponding incoming goods. In this way, the picking personnel only need to check the picking code in the picking labels on the goods to quickly identify the corresponding goods.
