It's important to understand the flow of your business. Having a diagram of your shop floor will give you a better understanding of where you want your apps to live as you go through the process.
Connected Tables
The Tables that you will use throughout this app suite will be used and connected throughout your various applications. This allows you to have an easier user experience as well as a network of tables that can be used with development of future applications. Learn more about how the tables will minimize redundancy and maximize compatibility through using a common data model.
Get familiar with the common tulip tables used throughout the cMES.
Downloading
Click the link to the Inventory App Suite. This will take you to the library page where you can add the app to your instance.
Once the App Suite has been added you will find a folder in your instance titled Inventory. This will allow you to see all the apps that are in the Suite.
Inventory Material Systems
This App Suite is focused on improving the flow of material and maximizing stock within your assembly process. Giving you clearer visibility into where your materials are going for Improved Inventory Accuracy.

Material Request
This app will allow you to streamline the creation of your material request form.
Request Material
On this step you will be able to request the material that you need by selecting them.
- App builder tips to follow focus around adding filters for a selected location and active statuses. You’ll need to configure the device you’re using to your barcode scanner. If need be you can remove certain fields to match your process.
Confirm
On this step you will get a view of your request before creating it
- Here you’ll want to make sure that you configure material request statuses and request ID. This will make sure the request goes where it actually needs to be.
Inventory Dashboard
This Dashboard is meant to give you full scope of your operations. What is happening at each location within your process and where your material are moving your facility
- For this app you’ll want to modify statuses under ‘Operations’ to make sure your analytics match your needs.
Material Loading and Receiving
The focus on this app is to help you with tracking and handling new materials that are received
Home
This screen is meant to help with directing you to different functions of the app.
Truck Arrival
Keep track of the trucks that are delivering the material. Keeping a record of what you have actually received.
- When it comes to this step it will be important to use the “Create new gate” button before selecting a gate, this way you’ll have a gate to select. Make sure that your status matches the statuses that are involved in your process.
Upload Image
This step is to make sure that you capture the arrival of the materials. Keep visual evidence of the shipment as it comes in
- Make sure that your statues match your process
FIFO Board
On this step you will get a visual for all of your orders that have arrived.
- Make sure that your statues match your process
Unload Confirmation
Here you make sure to capture the fact that you unloaded the material.
- Make sure that your statues match your process
Add New Gate
On this step you will be able to make new gates for receiving materials.
View History
This step allows you access information about past arrivals and you can search for specific data that has been captured.
Replenishment
This application can streamline material replenishment and movements by reducing manual data entry and administrative overhead, allowing staff to focus on more value-added tasks.
View Open Material Requests
On this step you will get visibility into all pending material requests. See details on where to pick the materials and where they need to be delivered.
- Add filters to the table to match the statues you would use in your operations
Select Kanban Card
Here you can scan the kanban cards for the materials in the designated area. Giving you visibility as to how much of your material is in stock.
