====== 1. Create Company Structure====== 

=====Overview=====

In Produmex WMS you can create your company structure by defining Organizational Structure Elements (OSEs). You can define them manually and you can also import zones and bin locations with the [[implementation:wms:importtool|Import Tool]].

The following elements can be created in the structure:

{{ :implementation:confguide:organizational:org_str.png |Company}}

^Element^Description^
|[[implementation:wms:companylevel|Company]]|A company can be created only once per company database|
|[[implementation:wms:warehousesettings|Warehouse]]|The warehouse marks the highest level below a company. It refers to the place where goods are received, stored and from which they are shipped and it can also be the location where goods are transformed (manufactured or packaged). A warehouse in Produmex must always be linked to a warehouse in SAP Business One.|
|[[implementation:wms:zonesettings|Zone]]|The zone is a specific area in the warehouse where certain functions are grouped (e.g. goods receipt, shipping, packaging, etc.)|
|[[implementation:wms:prodlinesettings|Production Line]]|The production line is a line where goods are produced and packaged (as a part of a warehouse).|
|[[implementation:wms:packingline|Packing Line]]|The packing line is a line where goods that are picked on a movable location can be packed onto a logistic carrier to be shipped as a logistic unit.|
|[[implementation:wms:docksettings|Dock]]|The doc is a location where goods are received and/or shipped (as a part of a warehouse).|
|Warehouse Automation Location|The Warehouse Automation Location is an automated warehouse (mini load) that manages input and output of items automatically. Produmex does not manage the individual locations (boxes) in the automated warehouse, but keeps track of the inventory on a global level.|
|[[implementation:wms:binsettings|Bin]]|The bin is an individual storage location managed by Produmex.|
|[[implementation:wms:silotank|Silo Tank]]|The silo tank is a fixed bulk storage location.|
|[[implementation:wms:moveablelocation|Movable Location]]|The movable location is a movable storage location (e.g. a picking cart) on which goods are temporarily stored after picking and before they are packed on a logistics carrier or used in production (e.g. a forklift).|
|[[implementation:wms:thinclient|Thin Client]]|The Thin Client (or Mobile Client / Fat Client) is a fixed or mobile operator station (e.g. a touch screen, a handheld terminal) by which the operator interacts with Produmex.|
|[[implementation:wms:printersettings|Printer]]|It marks a printer at a specific location or connected to a specific thin client.|
|[[implementation:wms:scale|Scale]]|One scale can only belong to a single weighing room / dock / packing station.|
|[[implementation:wms:weighingroom|Weighing room]]||
