The\u00a0<\/span>online<\/span>–<\/span>retailer<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>for\u00a0<\/span>furniture has optimized its goods\u00a0<\/span>inbound<\/span>\u00a0in a rush project. Instead of using e-mail, over 300 suppliers now book their time slots on the cloud platform from\u00a0<\/span>leogistics<\/span>. The focus was on a delivery platform with SAP connection without media\u00a0<\/span>discontinuity<\/span>. The new solution ensures delivery transparency and accurate estimates of how\u00a0<\/span>much time<\/span>\u00a0loading teams need at the ramp to receive goods.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The close cooperation with partners from Europe and Asia, for example, often small manufacturers, places considerable\u00a0challenges\u00a0on logistics planning for home24. On average, 35 to 40 trucks per day deliver goods to the\u00a0site in\u00a0Halle, Germany,\u00a0only. The online furniture retailer works with around 300 partners.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

In previous years, this still involved comparatively complex manual processes. First, the supplier sent an advance delivery bill by mail. This was used to check which products would be delivered and how long unloading would take. Then home24 sent an e-mail with a suggested time slot, which the supplier then had to confirm or reject.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

To manage the appointments, a Google calendar was used for each of the seven to fourteen gates per logistics center. In the ERP environment, the online furniture retailer uses SAP ERP ECC 1610, and in warehouse management EWM 9.4. However, the systems were not sufficient for logistics and coordination with suppliers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
