First, purchase
Using RFID technology change the traditional vendor stock management, use the reader to obtain goods and simultaneous arrival of logistics information, automatic statistical information on the goods and storage of incoming information system; goods placed in the warehouse after different regions, You can use a fixed RFID reader status of the goods stored in the warehouse can be monitored, such as designated stacking area, shelves statistics and time information. When the deadline approaching cargo storage area will automatically send an alarm signal to a central dispatch system notifies staff; when a library, changes in information goods also transferred to the corresponding database. RFID technology makes use of the registered goods become automated, more quickly and accurately, reducing staff requirements and loss of goods, fast delivery and pickup, and minimize storage costs.

Second, sale
Businesses in the sales cycle using electronic tags for goods statistics, only in the host’s system management software can query the details of the goods, such as the type and amount of inventory. Also in the payment station for automatic scanning and billing items to replace tedious manual collection mode.

In the process of transportation of goods to be installed in the stations, docks, airports, motorway exit, etc. of the reader to read the electronic tag information, along with the location information database of goods delivered to goods dispatch center, accurate and timely updated logistics network of cargo information. RFID technology application in the above aspects make reasonable product inventory control and intelligent logistics technology possible.
RFID is ideal for logistics tracking, delivery vehicles, storage shelves and target identification and other requirements of non-contact data collection and exchange of the occasion, widely used in logistics management warehouse management, transportation management, material tracking and shelves to identify, store (in particular, supermarkets).
