Paper-based Replenishment Process

Prior to the release of the current SSA Warehouse Management 4000application, it did not have a base Paper-based Replenishment option.

The ability to generate and maintain replenishment tasks from the SSAWarehouse management 4000 application without using Radio Frequency(RF) devices now provides an improved level of visibility and control.

Modifications have been made to the SSA Warehouse Management 4000application to address this change.
