[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. Unless there is a conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other in any way. In addition, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be performed in an order different from that here.

[0040] The terms "first" and "second" in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the term "comprising" and any of its variations are intended to cover non-exclusive protection. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but optionally also includes steps or units that are not listed, or optionally also includes other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices. "Multiple" in this application can mean at least two, for example, two, three or more, and the embodiments of this application are not limited thereto.

[0041] In the technical solution of this application, the collection, dissemination, and use of data comply with the requirements of relevant national laws and regulations.

[0042] Before introducing a warehouse management method provided by an embodiment of the present application, in order to facilitate understanding, the technical background of the embodiment of the present application is first introduced in detail below.

[0043] At present, warehouse management stores multiple equipment items, and the remaining quantity of any equipment item can be counted through the warehouse management system. The maintenance system is used for the outbound process, inbound process or inventory process of the warehouse items. The maintenance system will not associate the specific location information of the warehouse items of the item in the warehouse. The warehouse management system will output the item outbound instruction based on the real-time item quantity. When the consumption quantity of the items to be shipped out reaches the warning lower limit, the warehouse management system will issue a notification, and will only obtain the location and other information of the item according to the instructions issued manually. The instructions output by the warehouse management system generally only set a warning lower limit value for the inventory of consumables of an item, and lack verification of the item outbound. When there is an error in the item to be shipped out, the warehouse management system needs to re-obtain the relevant information of the item and issue an instruction. Therefore, the efficiency of shipping out or shipping in any item is low, and the efficiency of the warehouse management operation needs to be improved.

[0044] In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes a warehouse management method, device, equipment and storage medium to improve the efficiency of warehouse management operations.

[0045] It can be understood that the warehouse management method provided in this application can be executed by a warehouse server device.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps of a warehouse management method provided in an embodiment of the present application include:

[0047] Step 101: A first device obtains warehouse item information, where the warehouse item information includes quantity and location information of items in the warehouse.

[0048] In a possible embodiment, the first device may be a warehouse management device. The warehouse management device may be associated with a warehouse management system.

[0049] In one possible embodiment, the first device may receive item usage plan information from a third device, where the item usage plan information includes a usage plan for the target item. The third device may be a maintenance device, which may be associated with a maintenance system. By receiving the item usage plan information from the third device, the first device may obtain at least one of the following: the inventory quantity of the target item, the target item's inbound information, and the target item's outbound information. The first device may determine whether any item undergoes an outbound, inbound, or inventory process based on the item usage plan information.

[0050] In a possible embodiment, the standard maintenance operation process file is the item usage plan information. The third device can obtain the standard maintenance operation process file, in which the item maintenance process of multiple nodes is set. The third device can dispatch the item maintenance task of any node according to the standard maintenance operation process file to obtain warehouse item information. The node can be a time node or a task node. The standard maintenance operation process file can, at the time node, instruct the first device to count the quantity and location information of the items in the warehouse to which the first device belongs, and synchronize the quantity and location information of the items to the first device, that is, the first device obtains the quantity and location information of the item, and the first device uses the quantity and location information as the warehouse item information of the item.

[0051] In a possible embodiment, optionally, the warehouse item information may also be at least one of the following: data such as the supplier, delivery cycle, brand model, life cycle, warehouse shelf life, factory date or factory batch, warehouse location, and automatic coding format corresponding to any item.

[0052] Step 102: The first device generates an electronic tag for the target item to be shipped out based on the item shipment request or shipment prediction information. The electronic tag is used to verify the target item when shipping out. The shipment request includes warehouse item information of the target item, and the shipment prediction information is used to indicate the predicted shipment time of the target item.

[0053] In a possible embodiment, the first device may obtain a delivery request for any target item issued by the second device, and the delivery request includes the warehouse item information of the target item. The first device may generate an electronic tag for the item based on the warehouse item information of the target item, and the electronic tag may be used for verifying the target item at the radio frequency identification RFID (radio frequency identification, RFID) channel door of the warehouse. The electronic tag includes an item identification (identity document, ID) corresponding to the target item. For example, optionally, the warehouse management system obtains the electronic tag of the target item, and the electronic tag is the warehouse location of the item. The item corresponding to the delivery request obtained by the second device is the target item.

[0054] In one possible embodiment, the first device may optionally receive a request for warehousing or an inventory check of any target item from the second device. The request for warehousing any target item may be used by the first device to generate an electronic tag for warehousing the target item. The request for inventory check of any target item may be used by the first device to generate an electronic tag for inventorying or organizing the target item.

[0055] In a possible embodiment, optionally, the first device may determine the outbound forecast information based on at least one of the usage plan of the target item, the inventory quantity of the target item, the incoming information of the target item, and the outbound information of the target item.

[0056] For example, the first device can calculate, through the warehouse management system, the target item's consumption rate over the past period and the remaining quantity of the item in the future. The first device can use the remaining quantity of the item in the future as the target item's inventory quantity, and use the target item's inventory quantity as the target item's shipment forecast information. The shipment forecast information indicates the target item's predicted shipment time. The first device can combine the target item's shipment forecast information with the item's warehouse location to generate an electronic tag. Using this electronic tag, warehouse managers can determine the target item's location and quickly locate it.

[0057] In one possible embodiment, the first device may print the electronic tag as a paper label, and each item may correspond to a paper label. When the paper label is read by the second device, the second device may obtain the electronic tag corresponding to the paper label. The first device may obtain the electronic tag of the target item through the second device and, based on the electronic tag of the target item, obtain at least one of the following: a usage plan for the target item, an inventory quantity of the target item, inbound information for the target item, and outbound information for the target item to determine the outbound forecast information.

[0058] For example, the second device may be a handheld scanning device, and the paper label may be a QR code. When the handheld scanning device scans the paper label of the target item, the system where the handheld device is located may obtain the electronic label of the target item.

[0059] In one possible embodiment, the first device can verify the target item based on the electronic tag on the target item. The first device can obtain the target item's electronic tag through a second device and verify the information included in the target item's electronic tag against the target item's usage plan calculated by the system in the above process. For example, if the target item's time corresponding to the electronic tag read by the second device matches the time in the target item's shipment forecast information, the first device can obtain a shipment completion indication for the target item and update the warehouse item information of the items in the warehouse based on this indication. Correspondingly, if the target item's time corresponding to the electronic tag read by the second device does not match the time in the target item's shipment forecast information, an error warning can be issued, indicating an item shipment error. The second device can be a mobile handheld device that can read the electronic tag using RFID technology to obtain the target item's warehouse item information. Optionally, the second device can also obtain the target item's inventory quantity based on the electronic tag and verify the target item's inventory quantity using the plan based on the quantity in the target item's shipment forecast information. If the verification is successful, the target item can be shipped or received. If the verification fails, an alarm can be issued.

[0060] based on Figure 1 The process shown can predict the quantity of items needed for warehouse management operations over the next week, month, six months, or year based on the relationship and quantity between the maintenance plan management system and consumable items. This allows for the calculation, prediction, and early warning of spare parts consumption within the next cycle, enabling precise warehouse management. Target items are verified based on electronic tags, and operations such as outbound delivery are performed on those that pass verification. Warnings are issued for those that fail verification, and information about items in the warehouse is updated, improving warehouse management efficiency.

[0061] The following is combined with Figure 2 The illustrated architecture illustrates the implementation of the aforementioned steps 101 to 102 .

[0062] In one possible embodiment, hardware protocol integration is implemented through an RFID facility equipment system to realize the corresponding automated inventory management scenario service. Step 101 may include (1) to (3), and step 102 may include (4) to (6). The PC (personal computer) and mobile phone transmit data between another PC device, a handheld RFID device, an RFID channel door device, or a three-in-one access control device through a cloud device and a switch.

[0063] (1) Deploy the edge node environment service edge-core of k8s (cubic system (kubernetes, k8s)) on the edge node access server, and develop and run two Internet of Things (IoT) device access mapping (mapping, mapper) applications on this edge node service, namely: 1. RFID channel door protocol parsing mapper application: used to transmit the channel door device status and information; obtain the operating status and configuration information of the channel door in real time, as well as the action data of the detected electronic tag facility equipment entering and exiting the warehouse door and transmit it to the platform's data channel layer for consumption or recording. 2. Three-in-one access control protocol parsing mapper application: used for TCP / IP (transmission control protocol / internet protocol (TCP / IP))-based communication, responsible for reading and writing the internal configuration information of the three-in-one access control system, including facial data, access control cards, passwords, fingerprints; user log records and other information collection and business layer consumption; based on the integration of these two devices, the data can support the automation of spare parts management.

[0064] (2) Through the real-time maintenance plans, tasks, and maintenance operation processes (maintenance operation process, MOP) prepared by the data center, the call and linkage of maintenance-related service data can be realized, that is, the future consumption trend of spare parts inventory can be realized, and the synchronization of the action node of receiving warehouse spare parts in the maintenance work order can be ensured.

[0065] (3) Build a twin model of the spare parts warehouse (the twin model is also called metadata definition). Based on the sorting of the inventory goods in the inventory warehouse, perform twin definition and metadata design for the spare parts in the warehouse, including the definition of types. The definition of the attribute fields of each type of spare parts includes the core attributes of different dimensions of different spare parts definitions, such as supplier, delivery cycle, brand model, life cycle, warehouse shelf life, factory date, factory batch, etc., as well as batch definitions of some common metadata attribute fields such as associated MOP, warehouse location, automatic coding format, etc. This step can ensure the unified structured management and control of spare parts information.

[0066] (4) Based on the created spare parts twin model, it is possible to import spare parts of each category independently. Batch import after collecting records. After importing the data, the background will automatically generate a random electronic tag for each spare part data. The electronic tag is the ID corresponding to the spare part. Through the mobile PDA (personal digital assistant, PDA) device, the electronic tag can be quickly written to each spare part in the inventory, and then pasted to the corresponding spare part to complete the overall warehouse spare part data initialization work.

[0067] (5) The implementation method of warehousing spare parts in the warehouse is similar to the data initialization method: first, add a new basic information of spare parts warehousing on the mobile phone, and quickly enter the spare parts information by clicking and entering. You can also directly select the existing equipment to quickly add automatic integration specification information data. At the same time, generate the unique ID of the electronic tag according to the coding rules, and then use the card writer or handheld programmable analog device (programmable analog device, PAD) to complete the data writing of the corresponding electronic tag, and paste it on the spare parts packaging or body to complete the warehousing of the goods.

[0068] (6) Outbound delivery of spare parts from the warehouse: In order to achieve standardization and automation in connection with the overall maintenance work, the prerequisite for the outbound delivery of goods is that the maintenance process engine to which the corresponding spare parts belong occurs. The corresponding spare parts outbound request message is sent to the workstation or mobile phone of the warehouse manager account on that day through the message push robot. The warehouse manager can quickly scan the goods and confirm the outbound delivery based on the product model and location information associated with the system maintenance process. At the same time, the maintenance colleagues are required to confirm the completion of the spare parts extraction action to complete the overall warehouse spare parts outbound process.

[0069] The above process can achieve:

[0070] 1. Automatic outbound delivery during maintenance: The maintenance workflow includes a spare parts warehouse pickup point. Upon reaching this point, the warehouse administrator will receive a notification on their workstation indicating the appropriate person to perform the task. Warehouse managers can use their PDAs to pre-scan the electronic tags for outbound delivery and hand them over to colleagues who are collecting the spare parts. Maintenance personnel can then complete the part pickup confirmation and take the spare parts away for subsequent maintenance work.

[0071] 2. Automatic Management of Temporary Outbound Shipments: During routine maintenance and emergency repairs, there may be emergencies that preclude the formal outbound shipment of spare parts and consumables. Maintenance personnel can first register and remove the spare parts, then proceed with the corresponding workflow. Temporary outbound shipments are quickly recorded through the RFID access door and a notification is generated. The spare part's status in inventory is automatically switched to temporary outbound shipment. If the goods are returned after use, the inventory manager can also modify the spare part's status to returned. This ensures that every spare part borrowing is recorded and archived, while also promoting standardized daily operations by maintenance personnel and preventing unnecessary warehouse losses.

[0072] 3. Low Inventory Alert: This alert is tied to maintenance plans. The planned usage of spare parts and consumables for the upcoming year's maintenance work plan is factored into inventory consumption calculations. If the current spare part inventory level falls below the preset warning threshold or reaches zero after completing the next month's maintenance plan, a low inventory alert is triggered. This step reduces the risk of disconnection between warehouse management and business operations, leading to the loss of excess inventory and storage space.
