The Weighbridge Application has been developed to allow weighbridge tasks to be executed and

controlled through SAP. It allows weighbridges to be connected directly to the SAP sysytem without
the requirement for an extraneous weighbridge software. All related controls and all the activity
stemming from weighbridge processes are realized real time in SAP. Problems suffered with
independent weighbridge programs such as the need for subsequent processing of the data,
backups being created and kept in separate computers for each weighbridge, the weigbridge
reports being created separately and then consolidated are eliminated.
The application plays an important part in speeding up the operations and increasing control
especially in food, cement, chemical industries and the like which rely on weighbridge processes. It
allows the processes that need to be performed through SAP following weighing goods received and
issued to be automatically executed, so that weighbridge slips dont need to be entered to the
system subsequently. The jobs performed following weighings:
Automatic reception of goods corresponding to purchase orders
Automatic reception of goods without purchase order
Provisional admission of goods to the temporary warehouse
Making out consignment bills by creating automatic delivery at shipment stage
Automatic execution of internal stock transfer
Weighbridge operations can be followed through the SAP system, allowing the vehicles that come in and
go out and those in the premises to be easily tracked.
The weighbridge application includes many functions that help control the plant entrance and exit
processes:
Vehicle tare control
Vehicle load control
Calculation of net weight considering wastage and packaging weight
Special processes supporting tasks related to procurement from producers, such as determining
producers, receiving of goods from producers, or creating producer receipts
Authorized staff being able to print loading/unloading orders, weighing slips, producer receipts, or sales
consignment bills automatically through the weighbridge application
Attachment of entrance and exit photos to the weighbridge slip
Detailed follow up of all operations with the weighbridge report
Detailed inquiry of vehicle weighbridge status (eg. in the premises, out of the premises, loading)
Additionally, special functions are provided to follow up jobs other than internal transit, shipment and
reception of goods, that do not create changes in inventory, eg. hauling waste/debris.
