2、ates as their warehouse management system. However, complex processes of the ERP system, designed mainly for large enterprises, calls for large workforce putting a financial burden on many small and medium indus-tries. In this paper, we have attempted to find ways for the small and medium industries
3、 to reduce their workforce. For this purpose, we present and implement “a RFID system closely coupled with the ERP system“ which effectively complements the complexity of the existing ERP system with its functions of simultaneous multiple reading, and automation of the procedures by taking advantage
4、 of RFIDs merits of untouchability, convenience and data storing capability. As a result, the small and medium industries as well as large enterprises are able to take advantage of RFID systems merits. They can now control their product management easily, monitoring the status of production in real
5、time as they can conduct ware-house management on the ERP system without extra workforce. Key words: RFID; ERP; Warehouse management 1. Introduction The ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system of today is playing a remarkable role in most of the large conglomerates as a way of production managemen
6、t especially in warehousing. Since the existing ERP systems have been used and developed mainly for the convenience and interest of the large conglomerates for management of their enormous volume of logistics, much inconveniency have arisen for this system to directly apply in the small and medium i
7、ndustries. In this regard, the new technology of the RFID sys-tem is designed to overcome demerits of the barcode which demands individual reading of each product. The new technology helps realize more intelligent process such as checking multiple products 2 simultaneously and storing a certain amou
8、nt of data in each RFID tag. Because the RFID system uses a radio frequency that can read as many tags as possible accurately in a short time, it effectively replaces a human labor in carrying out the warehouse management process more effectively and accurately. By taking advantage of the RFID syste
9、m, which computerizes the existing procedures small and medium industries are able to cut workload and thus overcoming difficulties caused by the complexity the ERP system. In addition, the RFID system could prevent from such wastes as over-production, the excessive inventory of the companys warehou
10、ses and additional work processing. In this paper, we present and implement “a RFID of system closely connected with the ERP system.“ By taking advantage of RFID systems merits including untouchability, convenience and capacity to store data, it is possible to control products more efficiently than
11、the existing ERP system. By deleting complicated process of the bar code utilizing RFID system, it can both be applicable to the small and medium industries as well as big conglomerates. 2. Backgrounds 2.1. RFID and RFID system In the past, enterprises used the barcode-based application for the ware
12、house management system or SCM (Supply Chain Management) system. Because the traditional barcodes have limitations for wireless multiple recognition, the use of RFID technology has been widespread at an enormous speed from big conglomerates to small and medium industries as a real-time resource mana
13、gement system. The main reason for the enormous use of RFID can be attributed to the capability of tags in providing more valuable information about each product compared with traditional bar codes. The tag chips can store information about product or order number codes etc. Such data can be stored
14、into the tag chips in the form of EPC (Electronic Product Code). Therefore, many tags can simultaneous-ly be recognized by a RFID reader in a short time. This makes RFID tags be able to solve some of the inefficiencies related to traditional barcodes, such as manually handling cases to read the code
15、s, reducing time consumption and avoiding data capture errors. In addition, the readability of RFID tag can get over a lot of problems caused by traditional barcodes like reducing accuracy and involving low reading rate, due to dirtiness, damage and bending. RFID system consists of RFID Tag, RFID re
16、ader, Back-end database and application. 2.2. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) 3 The term ERP means the planning of how business resources (materials, employees, customers etc.) are acquired and moved from one state to another and the integration of the suppliers and customers with the manufacturi
17、ng environment of the organization 10. Not only an ERP system can control business resources but also perform such tasks as the asset or the personnel management. As the size of a company grows, so does the need of the ERP system to manage all processes of tasks. The ERP system, a software package u
18、sed for mainly warehouse management of shelf-based products, is very complicated because it must cover all its diverse processes. An ERP system can plan a manufacturing process of each product as well as the whole manufacturing process. The system can also trace location of the individual product. H
19、owever, the users have to put record information of each product one by one additionally in order to take advantage of this kind of merit in this system. 3. Related works 3.1. Traditional Warehouse management In the traditional warehouse, the location of the raw materials and the end products in the
20、 warehouse must be put record on the warehouse management system or on the paper manually by hands even though the com-pany has warehouse management system. This process is very inefficient and vulnerable to making mistakes. The ERP systems are in most cases commercial-off-the-shelf software package
21、s and large by their size and complex by their structure. ERP systems can plan the entire process of each product and can keep track of the location of each product. But we have to put record the additional information data of each product to ERP systems before we enjoy the convenience of the system
22、. 3.2. Warehouse management with RFID systems Using RFID system, we can easily manage the location and quantity of each product in the warehouse by attaching a tag. RFID is the best system for inventory due to its untouchability, rapidity and accuracy. RFID system, however, alone cannot perform such
23、 tasks as accounting or personnel management without integration of other powerful systems. In the past few years, there are some examples of applications of the RFID system for their warehouse management in some countries. 4. System architecture The suggested RFID system in this paper is composed o
24、f four large components: 4 module sets, a tag printer, a RFID reader and databases. In this system, we have created a new database called “RFID database“ for the management of each tag and the syn-chronization of information between the code of products in the ERP database and the code of tags in th
25、e RFID database linked with a RFID database module. Each module connects to two databases, giving and receiving data. Moreover, the company in the test environment which has set up the below system produces goods that are made up of the paper roll. These products or raw materials are sometimes ma-na
26、ged by such uncountable unit as KG (kilogram), RL (roll) or M (meter) and etc in the ERP system. There-fore, we have put an additional unit as well as quantity information of each product into the RFID database. With the existence of the two databases in the system, we can insert, update (modify) an
27、d delete information in the ERP database as well as manage tags without using the ERP system. Every device such as a tag printer or a RFID reader depends on each module respec-tively and operates in coordination with each other within the system. 5.1. Points to be considered In this paper, we have i
28、mplemented the system based on a flowing manufacturing industry, in Korea Computer Form Company, that produces goods like a bill of expenditures, specifications, or an itemized ac-count and so on. A flowing manufacturing means the reshaping process of the raw materials or changing of chemical proper
29、ty so as to obtain new products. In this system, we conduct a tagging job not only for the original code that a tag contains but also for the information of resources, or products stored in the RF-ID database directly on a tag by use a tag printer. We also use the following information for identifyi

34、有关产品或订单数字代码等这些数据可分为标签芯片存储在总承包的形式(电子产品代码)信息。因此,许多标签可以在很短的时间同时被RFID 阅读器辨认。这使得 RFID 标签能够解决一些有关传统条形码的低效率,6 如手工办案读码,减少时间消耗和避免数据采集 错误 。此外, RFID 标签的可读性可以克服的,如减少的准确性,涉及传统的条形码阅读率偏低造成很多问题,由于肮脏,破坏和弯曲。 RFID 系统由 RFID 标签、 RFID 读取器、后端数据库和应用。 2.2 ERP(企业资源规划) 这个词的 ERP 是指企业如何资源(材料,员工,客户等)被收购,并从一个国家转移到另一个供应商的,并与该组织的生产
