Savanna.NET® Warehouse Management Software Version 2.2 Available in June 2010
Westfalia's WMS Increasingly Efficient & User-Friendly
YORK, Pa., - Westfalia Technologies Inc. is launching Savanna.NET® Version 2.2 in June 2010. This latest version of Savanna offers a standard interface allowing Westfalia's WMS to "talk" with any Enterprise Resource Program (ERP) system; a faster, more efficient storage locator algorithm; and visible changes to the client user screens to make the client interface more user-friendly.
The new and improved standard host interface of Savanna 2.2 controls the items, orders, customers and inventory segments of the WMS, and provides standard integration of these segments to any ERP system (SAP, Oracle, Navision, Ross, etc.) While this is a 'behind the scene' improvement not immediately visual to a user, the standardization of this interface provides for more rapid WMS installation, which is of vital importance to customers.
The refinement of the "find storage location" algorithm is another behind the scenes improvement of Savanna 2.2. While it too is not necessarily visible to a user, the increased speed and efficiency of storing and retrieving pallets/totes becomes apparent in the daily/monthly reporting of the inventory and order processing.
"As our customer's needs have become more complex we are looking for ways to make day to day operation of a warehouse easier," explains Dave Williams, Director of Software Development.
Lastly, there are significant improvements to the WMS user screens, which Westfalia calls the 'WMS Client.' Savanna 2.2 users are able to rename and reorganize columns thereby allowing them to sort the inventory movement information in whatever manner they prefer. Enhancements to the 'system status' window present more efficient screen usage while also processing the information more efficiently. In general, the refinements make the Savanna WMS Client more user-friendly.
Look for more visualization improvements in the next version of Savanna, 2.3 due to launch at the end of 2010.
