successfully you should now be able to solve the following challenge.
Scenario: The warehouse management system has been tested without any problems,
so the management decided to use the system productively. Now your task is to order
two different products (water bottles and road helmets) from the supplier Spy Gear, 50
pieces each. A water bottle will cost 11 USD and a road helmet will cost 27 USD. The
trading goods should be delivered in 8 days.

Tips: You can use the Warehouse Management I case study as a guideline but it is
recommended to complete this challenge without further assistance to prove your WM
skills.
WM case study II:
Motivation: After having finished the Warehouse Management II case study
successfully you should now be able to solve the following challenge.
Scenario: The warehouse management system has been tested without any problems,
so the management decided to use the system productively. The distribution center in
San Diego will be delivering customers very soon. In order to do so you need to ensure
that there are enough black Deluxe Touring Bikes available on stock. Unfortunately,
you cannot order any from your plant in Dallas, because due to problems with one of
the assembly lines there are no free resources available. In order to have 50 black
Deluxe Touring Bikes (estimation by the management) in San Diego on time you need
to order them from your plant in Heidelberg (Germany). The delivery time is 10 days
maximum.
As soon as the goods arrive in your DC in San Diego they need to be stored in the same
bin where the black Touring Bikes from this case study already are.
Tips: You can use the Warehouse Management II case study as a guideline but it is
recommended to complete this challenge without further assistance to prove your WM
skills.
WM case study III:
Motivation After having finished the Warehouse Management III case study
successfully you should now be able to solve the following challenge.
Scenario The warehouse management system has been tested without any problems,
so the management decided to use the system productively. Due to a higher demand of
bikes for the Tour de France black Professional Touring Bikes are almost out of stock
in Europe. The Distribution Center in San Diego still has them available so that the
delivery of a wholesale sales order has to be managed by the new warehouse
management system.
The customer VeloDOM from Magdeburg (Germany) has ordered 20 black
Professional Touring Bikes with a delivery time of 10 days.
Tips You can use the case study Warehouse Management III as a guideline, but it is
recommended to complete this challenge without further assistance to prove your WM
skills.HS2041 Enterprise Systems Trimester 2 2016 3
