The bar codes on the goods are scanned as they enter the warehouse. The data generated is passed to the ERP database electronically.This is the most likely way to tell the ERP system about this event because it is an automated process that does not require any manual intervention. The bar codes on the goods contain all of the necessary information about the goods, such as the product number, quantity, and lot number. This information is then passed to the ERP database electronically, where it can be used to update the inventory records and generate other reports.
