Abstract: The disclosed technology is generally directed to a Resource Planning system. In one example of the technology, at a first site, a plurality of messages is received from a second site. The messages of the plurality of messages are associated with events. The events include dependencies that are associated with the events. The first site is not the second site. The events are associated with at least one of updating data or updating perpetual cost calculations. Messages of the plurality of messages having a first dependency level are determined based on the dependencies. The messages determined to have the first dependency level are processed. Messages of the plurality of messages having a second dependency level based on the dependencies are determined. The messages determined to have the second dependency level are processed after processing the messages determined to have the first dependency level.

Abstract: A first processor enters a control record in a database and then selects the control record and locks it with a pessimistic lock. If the first processor finishes its operations, it deletes the control record. A subsequent processor searches for the control record and attempts to lock it with a pessimistic lock. If the subsequent processor is successful in locking the control record, it determines that the first processor has failed in performing its process, and takes desired action.

Abstract: A system for reconciling physical items in a facility is provided. The system includes a data store containing item information relative to items stored within the facility. A processor is coupled to the data store and is configured to perform at least one control function relative to the items. A user interface component is coupled to the processor and is configured to receive information defining a cycle count relative to at least some items stored within the facility. A network component is coupled to the processor and is configured to convey container information to a plurality of terminals based on the defined cycle count. A virtual count engine is configured to receive observation data from the plurality of terminals associated with the container information. The virtual count engine is configured to group the observation data according to item identifiers and compare the grouped information with information maintained in the data store.

Abstract: A visualization application in conjunction with an enterprise resource planning (ERP) service draws a store map employing a coordinate model. Upon receiving aisle data including coordinate and orientation information for each aisle, the aisles are mapped within the store map using the aisle locations determined from the aisle data. The physical store map is integrated with visualized inventory information such as a heat map to enable users view inventory information, trends, etc. with the location information as background.
