Rack and Location Labels

location labels:
Accurately expiditing the put away and the picking of product for shipment is contingent upon immediatly identifying the storage location. In order to have positive inventory control every item and location must be identified, specifically with a unique identification number. Every action within the inventory system must be tracked. This would include tracking the item as well as its location each time it is received, stored, moved, or removed. Identification should include numbering and/or identifying designators (aisle, row, rack, etc.) within the layout configuration. The quick identification of aisle, rack, shelf, and bin locations can be facilitated by the use of colors representing certian warehouse zones, and symbols such as arrows explicitly identifying locations. Unfortunately, location information and maps in many existing warehouses have evolved over time and has become outdated, inaccurate, and/or obsolete. The patchwork number system ends up being a disjointed configuration. Frequently, new locations don't have a warehouse location map or an accurate database.

rack location labels:
Rack labels are used to identify a specific location in a storage area. The information on the label is used for visual reference and the bar code is used for automated location verification. Depending on the size of the warehouse area, there can be dozens, if not hundreds of rows, and probably thousands of rack locations. Rack labels are used to identify a specific location in a storage area. Test adhesive on new rack surfaces. Paint may still be out-gassing which will cause labels to lift and/or fall off.
