The transfer batch may not, and many times should not, be equal to the process batch-OPT rule).Ws store all products (slow or fast moving).DCs hold predominantly high demand items.Ws focus on minimising the operating costs to meet shipping requirements.DCs focus on maximising the profit impact of fulfilling customer (external customer) delivery requirement.WarehousesDistribution centersUnit ⅦThe role of warehouses in the futureØSome experts in this field predict the demise of warehouses because inventory stocking will no longer be needed.ØExamples of the changing role of warehouses can be seen in consolidations ofUnit ⅦExamples of the changing role of warehouses can be seen in consolidations ofShipmentsCross-dockingvalue-added processingPackaging, sub- assembly,kitting, labelingProviding color and style tp productsCustom workUnit ⅦWhat will synchronize the company’s demand chain?ECR and JIT in combination with POS data will fully synchronize the company's demand chain.Unit ⅦThe use of eCommerce in warehouseseCommerce has led to warehouse expansion. is refocused by existing warehousing companies.Unit ⅦPART II The ABC Catering Services Ltd.ØAbout ABC Catering Services Ltd.ØThe Current Work Flow Unit ⅦNew Wordsprocurement [] n. 获得,取得 rim [] n.边;轮缘;篮框 Seoul [] n.首尔 champagne [] n.香槟酒;香槟 色 replenishment [] n.补 给;补充 biweekly [] adj.双周的 n.半月刊 forward [] vt.转寄;促进; 运送 workload [] n.工 作量 keep track of v.明了Unit ⅦPerformance [] n.履行,执行 ;成绩 Payload [] n.有效 载荷 Downstream [] adv.下游。
