Each successful scan for a delivery that you perform as a 3PL in a warehouse in the Serialized Logistics application is recorded. The Reports & Analysis application enables you to check the peak times of scanning for a day of the week. Select a warehouse, a day of the week, and a time period as the basis of the calculation. The application displays a graph with hourly granularity per mobile action (station).


Note: To access this page, the "Administrator" role is required.


Procedure


1. In the Reports & Analysis application, select 3PL --> Peak times. The application displays the opening page.


Example:



2. Specify the calculation parameters of the peak time:

  • Select a warehouse.
  • Select a day of the week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday).
  • Select a time period (Past 2, 4, 8, or 12 weeks).


The application displays a graph with hourly granularity per mobile action (station). The following mobile actions (stations) are displayed:

  • Validate picking - To validate picked case SSCCs.
  • Pack an order - To build pallets.
  • Packing - Orders - To add homogeneous pallets to the delivery.
  • Packing - Items - To create mixed pallets.


The bar of the one-hour interval matching the actual time is highlighted in purple, the rest are displayed in blue.


The following example illustrates the peak times of scanning on Monday based on the past 2 weeks in the selected warehouse:



3. Hover the mouse over a bar of a specific hour in a graph to see the exact value and a text about how that value was calculated.


The application calculates and shows the average number of scans for that mobile action (station) at that hour on that day of the week over the selected time period. When determining the number of scans, the application considers scanning the delivery ID and the items.


Example 1 


20 delivery IDs and a total of 1180 items are scanned in the past 12 weeks on the selected day in a specific hour. The total number of scans is 1200 in that hour over the past 12 weeks. By dividing it with 12, the average number of scans is 100 in that hour.


Example 2 


3 delivery IDs and a total of 237 items are scanned in the past 2 weeks on the selected day in a specific hour. The total number of scans is 240 in that hour over the past 2 weeks. By dividing it with 2, the average number of scans is 120 in that hour.
