Introduction

Inventory Visibility and Control Solution: Know What You Have. Know Where It Is. Stay in Control.

 

When warehouse inventory grows across multiple storage zones, SKUs, batches, and operating processes, simply counting stock is no longer enough.

Zhuku Inventory Visibility and Control Solution connects warehouse inventory with storage locations, inbound and outbound operations, material movements, equipment, and warehouse management software. It provides a clearer view of what is stored, where it is stored, how much is available, and how inventory has changed.

From manual warehouses to automated ASRS and shuttle systems, Zhuku helps customers move from inventory checking to real-time inventory visibility and control.

Receiving, putaway, picking, shipping, relocation, and stocktaking are connected within one workflow, reducing gaps between physical operations and system records.

Too Many SKUs and Batches?

Solution: Intelligent Inventory Classification

CC-WMS can manage SKUs, batches, storage zones, expiration dates, and other inventory attributes according to different business requirements.

Inventory Changes Too Frequently?

Solution: Real-Time Inventory Updates

Warehouse transactions are recorded as operations occur, providing more up-to-date inventory information for warehouse teams and management.

Difficult to Trace Material Movements?

Solution: Complete Inventory History

Inventory transactions and warehouse movements can be recorded throughout the material lifecycle, helping users identify when and where inventory was received, moved, stored, or shipped.

Automated Equipment Can't See Inventory Status?

Solution: WMS + WCS Integration

CC-WMS manages inventory and warehouse processes while YUNTU-WCS coordinates automated equipment, connecting inventory data with physical warehouse operations.

What Is an Inventory Visibility and Control Solution?

 

An Inventory Visibility and Control Solution provides a digital connection between inventory data and actual warehouse operations.

Instead of managing inventory through isolated spreadsheets, manual records, and disconnected equipment, Zhuku creates a connected workflow:

ERP / MES → CC-WMS → YUNTU-WCS → Warehouse Equipment → Inventory Data

The system can provide visibility into:

  • Inventory quantity
  • Storage location
  • SKU information
  • Batch information
  • Inventory status
  • Inbound records
  • Outbound records
  • Stock movements
  • Stocktaking records
  • Inventory transaction history

Complete Inventory Visibility from Receiving to Shipping

 

Receiving

Inventory information is recorded when goods arrive at the warehouse, creating the starting point for inventory tracking.

Quality Inspection

Products can be associated with quality inspection processes before being released into available inventory.

Putaway

CC-WMS assigns appropriate storage locations according to predefined rules, product characteristics, and warehouse zones.

Storage

Each pallet or material unit is associated with its warehouse location, making inventory location information easier to track.

Relocation

When inventory moves between locations, the system records the movement and updates the corresponding storage information.

Picking & Outbound

Outbound tasks are generated according to orders and inventory rules, while completed transactions update inventory quantities.

Stocktaking

Digital stocktaking helps warehouse teams compare system inventory with physical inventory and identify discrepancies.

Inventory Control Technologies

 

CC-WMS Warehouse Management

Centralized Inventory & Warehouse Control

CC-WMS manages inventory information, storage locations, receiving, putaway, picking, outbound operations, stocktaking, relocation, and inventory transactions within one platform.

YUNTU-WCS Warehouse Control

Connecting Inventory with Automation

YUNTU-WCS connects inventory tasks with physical warehouse equipment such as four-way shuttles, lifts, conveyors, stacker cranes, and warehouse robots.

2D & 3D Warehouse Visualization

See Inventory and Equipment More Clearly

Digital warehouse maps provide a visual representation of storage locations and equipment status, helping operators understand warehouse conditions more intuitively.

Barcode & Scanning

Reduce Manual Data Entry

Barcode and scanning workflows help operators identify products, pallets, and storage locations while reducing repetitive manual input.

Inventory Transaction History

Track Every Inventory Movement

The system records inventory changes throughout warehouse operations, providing a clearer history of receiving, storage, relocation, picking, shipping, and stocktaking.

Open System Integration

Connect Inventory with Enterprise Systems

Zhuku supports integration with ERP, MES, SAP, Oracle, and other external systems through standard interfaces, helping synchronize inventory and business data.

Inventory Visibility for Different Business Requirements

 

Manufacturing

Track raw materials, components, work-in-process inventory, and finished products throughout production and warehouse operations.

E-Commerce

Manage high SKU volumes, frequent inbound and outbound transactions, and rapidly changing inventory levels.

Retail & Supermarket

Improve visibility across product categories, storage zones, batches, and replenishment operations.

Food & Beverage

Manage batch information, shelf life, expiration dates, and inventory rotation requirements.

Pharmaceutical

Third-Party Logistics

Manage inventory belonging to different customers while supporting independent storage zones, inventory records, and operational rules.

Inventory Visibility for Automated Warehouses

 

Inventory visibility becomes even more important when warehouses use automation.

In an automated warehouse, inventory data needs to correspond with the physical location of every pallet or material unit.

Zhuku connects:

Inventory Data

Storage Location

Warehouse Task

Automation Equipment

Execution Result

For example:

Customer Order → CC-WMS → YUNTU-WCS → Shuttle / Crane → Conveyor → Outbound

The completed equipment operation is then returned to the warehouse management system, helping maintain consistency between digital inventory and physical warehouse operations.

Intelligent Inventory Control

 

FIFO

The system can prioritize inventory according to storage time to support First-In, First-Out operations.

FEFO

For products with expiration requirements, inventory can be managed according to expiration dates to prioritize products approaching their expiry.

Batch Management

Inventory can be organized and tracked according to production batches, helping customers manage batch-based storage and outbound operations.

Zone-Based Storage

Different products can be assigned to predefined warehouse zones according to product type, business requirements, or customer rules.

Inventory Traceability

Warehouse transactions can be recorded throughout the material lifecycle, creating a clearer history from receiving to final shipment.
