Ditto. We even bought the handhelds. After 3 years it went nowhere. We’ve even had BarTender licenses for 5 years now.
Our problem is organization. We don’t adhere to process very well in the manufacturing division, and people change things around (physically and in concept) all the time.
Silver lining is that last week we actually started using the handhelds in our other site (a pure warehouse; not a job shop). Not with barcodes yet but the EKW app. I can see them using barcodes and succeeding.
Manufacturing is borderline unwieldy. There is so much process to think through with WIP, and “barcoding” that is not a technology challenge so much as a process one.
Other thing is that picking an order is not as easy as you might think… (I am still working on that.)
