architecture

• There is NO MIDDLEWARE at the warehouse- thus no server, no
maintenance, no downtime

WebXpress Barcode Generation utility
• All arrival and departure counting are then done using bar code
scan, replacing manual counting of boxes
• Any shortage or extra is indicated by WebXpress system by
flashing the error
• This reduces instances of misrouting and shortages
• Also, at any point of time the UBI number can provide the details
of the box such as docket number, origin, destination, consignor
and consignee etc.

– In such a case, wired barcode reader or a bluetooth
barcode reader will be used
• Option 2: Hand Held Terminal (HHT)

reading barcodes directly into WebXpress application
– This will require a Hand Held Terminal with Wi-Fi/GPRS
connectivity and Windows Mobile/CE operating system

solution into the device
– The hub/branch also needs to be Wi-Fi enabled
43. Barcode reader option Comparison
Option 1: Wired reader
• Bar code reader connected to a
PC/laptop
• As length of wire is limited,
scanning workstation needs to be
near to loading/off loading gate
• WebXpress application on PC
should be running and online to
use the system
• Less flexibility for movement of
reader. Typically suitable for small
to medium boxes
• Ideally used on a conveyer belt
Option 2: Hand Held Terminal
• Independent terminal used by an
operator. Connected using Wi-
Fi/GPRS
• As this is a wireless device, it can
be taken to any area in hub
• Application is loaded on HHT and
does not require online connectivity
while scanning. Requires
connectivity at start and end of
each activity
• High flexibility to user for scanning
a box. Suitable for all types of
loads, all weights
• Ideally used for high volume
activity over a large area
