  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SETUP OF, AND COMMUNICATION WITH, AN RFID MIDDELWARE SERVER FROM AN ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING SYSTEM SERVER
    Publication number: 20110035672
    Abstract: A method of configuring a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) middleware server is provided. The method includes calling a server form, using an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, from an ERP server. The method also includes identifying at least one RFID middleware server using the server form, and configuring one or more processes, using the server form, to run on the at least one identified RFID server. The one or more configured processes are transmitted from the ERP server to the RFID middleware server in order to configure the RFID middleware server.

  • RFID RECEIVING PROCESS FOR USE WITH ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING SYSTEMS
    Publication number: 20100308975
    Abstract: A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) receiving method for use with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system is provided. The method includes reading, at a receiving point, information from RFID tags included on delivered items, which are not recorded on an Advanced Shipment Notification (ASN). An item arrival journal including item arrival lines is generated. By calling a mapping form, the item arrival lines are displayed along with RFID tag information indicative of delivered items. Then, mapping form logic is used to automatically map at least some of the delivered items corresponding to the RFID tags to item arrival lines to thereby match delivered items with ordered items.
