[0055] In the present application, the term "including", "containing" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or equipment including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or includes elements inherent in such process, method, article or equipment. Without more limitations, the element defined by the sentence "including a" does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or equipment including the element.

[0056] Referring to Figure 1 The warehouse management system WMS generation platform and the server architecture diagram shown in the embodiment of the present application.

[0057] The warehouse management system WMS generation platform 10 is connected with the server 20.

[0058] The server 20 is the server of the warehouse management system WMS generation platform 10.

[0059] The user registers the account of the warehouse management system WMS generation platform 10 on the user equipment, so as to generate the WMS for managing its own business based on the warehouse management system WMS generation platform 10.

[0060] Based on the above-mentioned architecture diagram, the process of WMS generation is as follows:

[0061] The user logs in the warehouse management system WMS generation platform 10 based on the user equipment, and submits the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction.

[0062] The server 20 acquires the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction submitted by the user, the user carries a business requirement corresponding to the warehouse management system WMS to be generated; based on the business requirement, the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS is determined, the number of the warehouse type is at least one; based on the business requirement, the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS are determined; and the corresponding warehouse management system WMS is generated based on the warehouse-in process data, the warehouse-out process data and the warehouse type, so that the user exports the generated warehouse management system WMS from the warehouse management system WMS generation platform based on the user equipment and installs it to the corresponding warehouse.

[0063] If the warehouse type is 2, the server 20 determines the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS based on the business requirement for the first warehouse type, generates the corresponding warehouse management system WMS based on the warehouse-in process data, the warehouse-out process data and the first warehouse type, and then determines the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS based on the business requirement for the second warehouse type, and generates the corresponding warehouse management system WMS based on the warehouse-in process data, the warehouse-out process data and the second warehouse type.

[0064] It should be noted that when there are multiple warehouse types, the multiple warehouse types can be processed at the same time, or can be processed sequentially.

[0065] In the embodiment of the application, the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction submitted by the user is acquired, the user carries a business requirement corresponding to the warehouse management system WMS to be generated; based on the business requirement, the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS is determined, the number of the warehouse type is at least one; based on the business requirement, the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS are determined; and the corresponding warehouse management system WMS is generated based on the warehouse-in process data, the warehouse-out process data and the warehouse type. In this scheme, the corresponding warehouse type, warehouse-in process data and warehouse-out process data can be determined based on the business requirement provided by the user; and then one or more WMS corresponding to the user are constructed and used. The above-mentioned mode can construct different WMSs for different customers, so that the constructed WMS supports various production scenarios.

[0066] Referring to Figure 2 A flowchart of a warehouse management system generation method according to an embodiment of the application is shown, and the method comprises:

[0067] Step S201: Acquire the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction submitted by the user.

[0068] In the process of step S201, the user carries the business demand corresponding to the warehouse management system WMS to be generated.

[0069] In the process of implementing step S201, the user, i.e., the tenant, uploads to the server based on the business demand of the user to submit the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction carrying the business demand corresponding to the warehouse management system WMS to be generated.

[0070] Optionally, each user is an identifier capable of uniquely identifying the identity of the user, and the identifier is composed of a creation account date and a random code.

[0071] Step S202: determining the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS based on the business demand.

[0072] In step S202, the number of warehouse types is at least one.

[0073] In the process of implementing step S202, since an enterprise has at least one warehouse, each warehouse can be set with a designated warehouse management system WMS, and therefore the business type required to be managed in the business demand is determined as the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS.

[0074] It should be noted that if the number of business types required to be managed is multiple, the number of warehouse types is also multiple; if the number of business types required to be managed is one, the number of warehouse types is also one.

[0075] Step S203: determining the inbound process data and outbound process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS based on the business demand.

[0076] In the process of implementing step S203, the inbound process data and outbound process data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS are determined based on the process configuration parameters in the business demand.

[0077] It should be noted that the inbound process data includes check-in mode, handover mode, acceptance mode, shelving mode, and order status, and the order status is used to indicate whether to close the order.

[0078] The outbound process data includes positioning mode, order form, task allocation mode, picking mode, review packing mode, and delivery mode, and the order form is used to indicate whether to split the order or to group the order.

[0079] For example, as Figure 3As shown, based on the process configuration parameters in the business requirement A, the warehouse management system WMS inbound process data, i.e., the inbound single process, can be determined, specifically including determining the check-in mode, i.e., selecting the park check-in, WMS check-in or the check-in node of prohibiting check-in; determining the handover mode, i.e., selecting the handover node of prohibiting or checking the quantity; determining the acceptance mode, i.e., selecting the acceptance node of prohibiting or pre-acceptance quality inspection; determining the shelving mode, i.e., selecting the shelving node of prohibiting or starting; determining the order status, i.e., selecting the order node of prohibiting closing or starting closing. At the same time, the warehouse management system WMS outbound process data, i.e., the outbound single process, can be determined, specifically including determining the positioning mode, i.e., selecting the positioning node of automatic or manual; determining the order form, i.e., selecting the order node of not splitting, automatic splitting or manual splitting, and / or, selecting the collection node of automatic or manual; determining the picking mode, i.e., selecting the picking node of automatic or manual; determining the review packing mode, i.e., selecting the review packing node of automatic or manual packing; determining the shipping mode, i.e., determining the shipping node of automatic or manual shipping.

[0080] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the warehouse management system WMS generated platform includes multiple modules such as inbound, in-warehouse, outbound, inventory and master data, and the outbound module includes multiple nodes such as single, plan, task allocation, picking and review. Figure 4 As shown, the warehouse management system WMS generated platform includes multiple modules such as inbound, in-warehouse, outbound, inventory and master data, and the outbound module includes multiple nodes such as single, plan, task allocation, picking and review. The merchant A wants to build a WMS, and the outbound module only includes the nodes of task allocation, picking and review, and the modules of inbound, in-warehouse and inventory; and the merchant B wants to build a WMS, and the outbound module only includes the nodes of plan, task allocation, picking and review, and the modules of inbound and master data.

[0081] It should be noted that if it is an automatic mode, the processing is automatically performed according to the pre-set program, and if it is a manual mode, when the node is executed, it is switched to the manual operation interface for the production personnel to operate. The configuration of such node dimensions can control the flow transfer link between nodes in the production process.

[0082] Optionally, during the inbound or outbound process, node expansion can also be performed, such as adding a distribution node after the picking node and before the review packing receiving node.

[0083] It should be noted that the distribution node needs to be constructed and implemented, and then configured and connected. According to the business characteristics of distribution, distribution task receiving services are provided; then distribution production operation services are provided, i.e., services relied on by the operation system when the in-warehouse distribution personnel produces; according to the allocation of the next node configuration, the next node request is performed in the distribution service.

[0084] Among them, the node configuration is increased, the distribution node is added in the production process configuration, and the production parameters are configured for the distribution node.

[0085] If a tenant wants to use the distribution capability, a new warehouse management system can be created, and the specific warehouse can be assigned the production process version, and then the new node can be started for use.

[0086] Optionally, the production parameters of the positioning node are configured based on the process configuration parameters in the business requirement, and the specific configuration parameters include product rules, inventory turnover rules, inventory positioning rules, and inventory matching rules.

[0087] It should be noted that parameter configuration refers to setting cross-warehouse or in-stock product production, i.e., if it is cross-warehouse, the warehouse positioning has no inventory, and the pre-set cross-warehouse process is executed. Because each control is a different production process, multiple parameters can be configured.

[0088] The product rule can be used to determine whether to start product level positioning control when controlling the product positioning in the warehouse. If it is specified to start, the positioning is performed according to the level specified by the product in the order.

[0089] The inventory turnover rule can be a rule for configuring product priority outbound rules, such as rules set according to levels (good products, defective products, and defective products), batches (old batches are preferred), and the like.

[0090] The inventory positioning rule can be used to determine whether to start automatic replenishment if the zero-picking area has no inventory, and the strategy for selecting the storage location of the product if multiple storage locations have products.

[0091] The inventory matching rule can be a rule for selecting the product order according to the date of production, i.e., the product with the earliest production date is selected first.

[0092] Optionally, the production parameters of the group collection single node are configured based on the process configuration parameters in the business requirement, and the specific configuration parameters include collection single parameters, picking task parameters, and picking methods.

[0093] It should be noted that the collection single parameter refers to the limit conditions for setting up a collection single, such as the upper limit of the order quantity, volume, weight, and product quantity. However, when the collection single assembly process is completed, the collection single is completed, and the next collection single can be assembled.

[0094] The picking task parameter is a limit condition for splitting the picking task after the collection single is assembled, such as the upper limit of the volume, weight, and product quantity.

[0095] The picking method can be set when the picking task is split, and the production personnel can pick according to the picking method.

[0096] For example, if Figure 5As shown, according to the process configuration parameters in the business requirements of tenant merchant A, configure the production parameters of the positioning node. Specifically, determine the parameter configuration, that is, determine the configuration parameters for cross-stocking or first-in-stock production; determine the product rules, that is, determine the rules for specifying a grade or specifying a matching rule; determine the inventory turnover rules, that is, determine the rules for sorting by grade, sorting by batch, or approved by packaging code; determine the inventory positioning rules, that is, determine the rules for automatic replenishment when out of stock or priority clearing of storage locations; determine the inventory matching rules, that is, determine the rules for first-in-first-out production based on the generation date. According to the process configuration parameters in the business requirements of tenant merchant A, configure the production parameters of the group collection single node. Specifically, determine the collection single parameters, that is, determine the order limit

[50] , volume limit

[500] , weight limit

[500] , and commodity shipment limit [8]; determine the picking task parameters, that is, select the volume limit

[200] , weight limit

[100] , and commodity shipment limit [4]; determine the picking method, that is, determine current label picking, picking and sorting simultaneously, or picking and sorting in one; determine the collection single algorithm, that is, determine to use algorithm 1; determine the collection single extension configuration, that is, determine to enable extension point 1 and enable extension point 3.

[0097] For example: Figure 6 As shown, according to the process configuration parameters in the business requirements of tenant merchant B, configure the production parameters of the positioning node. Specifically, determine the parameter configuration, that is, determine the configuration parameters for selecting "production first when goods are available"; determine the product rules, that is, determine the rules for selecting a specified level or a specified matching; determine the inventory turnover rules, that is, determine the rules for sorting by level or by batch; determine the inventory positioning rules, that is, determine the rules for selecting priority clearing of storage locations; determine the inventory matching rules, that is, determine the rules for selecting the first-come-first-served rule of the generation date. According to the process configuration parameters in the business requirements of tenant merchant B, configure the production parameters of the group order node. Specifically, determine the group order parameters, that is, determine the order limit

[50] , volume limit

[500] , weight limit

[500] , and product shipment limit [8]; determine the picking task parameters, that is, select the volume limit

[200] , weight limit

[100] , and product shipment limit [4]; determine the picking method, that is, determine to use automatic sorting; determine the group order algorithm, that is, determine to use algorithm 2; determine the group order extension configuration, that is, determine to enable extension point 2.

[0098] Step S204: Generate a corresponding warehouse management system (WMS) based on the inbound process data, the outbound process data, and the warehouse type.

[0099] In the specific implementation of step S204, a corresponding warehouse management system (WMS) is first generated based on the inbound process data and the outbound process data. Then, the warehouse type is configured for the generated warehouse management system (WMS).

[0100] It should be noted that the warehouse type can be a fresh food warehouse, a clothing warehouse, a large item warehouse, an electronic device warehouse, and a book warehouse, etc.

[0101] For example, as shown in Figure 7 , in the tenant merchant B, there are to-be-assigned warehouses a, b, c, and d of the warehouse management system to be assigned, and there are assigned warehouses e, f, g, and h of the warehouse management system that have been assigned, wherein XX represents the warehouse type.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction submitted by the user is obtained, the user carries the business requirement corresponding to the warehouse management system WMS to be generated; based on the business requirement, the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS is determined, the number of the warehouse type is at least one; based on the business requirement, the warehouse-in flow data and the warehouse-out flow data required for generating the warehouse management system WMS are determined; and the corresponding warehouse management system WMS is generated based on the warehouse-in flow data, the warehouse-out flow data and the warehouse type. In this scheme, the corresponding warehouse type, warehouse-in flow data and warehouse-out flow data can be determined based on the business requirement provided by the user; then one or more WMS corresponding to the user are constructed and used. The above-mentioned method can construct different WMS for different customers, so that the constructed WMS supports various production scenarios.

[0103] Based on the above-mentioned warehouse management system generation method, referring to Figure 8 , another flowchart of a warehouse management system generation method is shown.

[0104] Step S801: Obtain the warehouse management system WMS generation instruction submitted by the user.

[0105] Step S802: Determine the warehouse type of the warehouse management system WMS based on the business requirement.

[0106] It should be noted that the specific process of step S801 is the same as the specific implementation process of step S201 shown above, and can be referred to each other.

[0107] Step S803: Determine whether the number of the warehouse type is multiple, if it is multiple, execute steps S804 to S806, if it is one, execute steps S807 to S809.

[0108] In the process of implementing step S803, if it is determined that the number of the warehouse type is multiple, steps S804 to S806 are executed, if it is determined that the number of the warehouse type is one, steps S807 to S809 are executed.

[0109] Step S804: determining the demand data corresponding to each warehouse type in the business demand.

[0110] In the process of implementing step S804, different production process versions can be configured according to the characteristics of the warehouse, that is, the demand data corresponding to each warehouse type is determined by the demand data corresponding to multiple business types in the business demand.

[0111] It should be noted that the warehouse type can be a fresh food warehouse, a clothing warehouse, a large item warehouse, an electronic device warehouse, a book warehouse, etc.

[0112] In the embodiment of the application, different warehouse management systems can be set for fresh food warehouses, clothing warehouses, large item warehouses, electronic device warehouses, and / or book warehouses, etc.

[0113] Step S805: generating the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data corresponding to each warehouse type based on the demand data corresponding to each warehouse type.

[0114] In the process of implementing step S806, for each warehouse type, the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data corresponding to each warehouse type are determined according to the demand data corresponding to each warehouse type. Specifically, for each warehouse type, the demand data corresponding to the warehouse type is analyzed to determine the check-in mode, the handover mode, the acceptance mode, the shelving mode, and the order status of each warehouse type, wherein the order status is used to indicate whether the order is closed; for each warehouse type, the demand data corresponding to the warehouse type is analyzed to determine the positioning mode, the order form, the task allocation mode, the picking mode, the review packing mode, and the delivery mode of each warehouse type, wherein the order form is used to indicate whether the order is split or whether the order is combined.

[0115] Step S806: generating multiple warehouse management systems WMS for each warehouse type based on the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data corresponding to each warehouse type.

[0116] In the process of implementing step S806, each warehouse type and the warehouse-in process data and the warehouse-out process data corresponding to the warehouse type are generated into a specific warehouse management system WMS, and the number of warehouse management systems WMS is multiple.

[0117] Step S807: determining the demand data corresponding to the warehouse type in the business demand.

[0118] It should be noted that the specific implementation process of step S807 is the same as that of step S804 described above, and they can be referred to each other.

[0119] Step S808: generating the warehousing process data and the delivery process data corresponding to the warehouse type based on the demand data corresponding to the warehouse type.
