As a fast and efficient automatic identification technology, barcodes are increasingly widely used in various industries. In the aspect of fixed asset management, which is considered to be the key to the cost of relationship enterprises, barcodes have also become the first choice of many users. Recently, Guangdong Unicom has further improved its decentralized and difficult-to-control asset management system through the use of bar code technology. Its satisfactory results have once again proved the reliability and safety of this technology.

  
challenge


With the regional development of the market, many users in the management of fixed assets are faced with the scattered use of fixed assets, even with the support of the management system, the formulation, filling or printing, pasting of fixed asset labels, and tracking of asset status , The quality and efficiency of inventory and other work have not been well improved, and the management of fixed assets is still a combination of manual and computer management. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce bar codes to effectively solve the bottleneck problem of decentralized collection and input of fixed asset data, so that the functions of the fixed asset management system can be maximized.

Guangdong Branch of China Unicom Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Guangdong Unicom) was established on September 19, 1994 and is a branch of China Unicom in Guangdong. With eleven years of growth, Guangdong Unicom has grown from nothing, from small to large, and its business has grown from single to integrated, achieving leap-forward development. Like other companies, the growing momentum of development has also brought a burden on fixed asset management for Guangdong Unicom, and the problems faced by them are also diverse:

·Inaccurate asset depreciation data

·The book value statistics are inaccurate

·Inventory work is heavy

·It is difficult to update information in time

·Time-consuming and labor-intensive

In order to obtain the best asset management effect and achieve the unification of assets and asset information, Guangdong Unicom implemented a fixed asset management process optimization project, in which the barcode system played a pivotal role in the entire project.

 
solution


Guangdong Unicom fully analyzed and studied its own needs in the fixed asset management business, and decided to adopt the domestic advanced automatic identification technology research and development, product application and system integrator Guangzhou Yingzhi Computer Technology Co., Ltd. tailored for its fixed asset management Solution (IEAM), and introduce barcode and wireless technology into its fixed asset management. In this system, Guangdong Unicom selected professional barcode printers from Zebra Technologies, an internationally advanced printer provider, which effectively solved the bottleneck problem of decentralized collection and input of fixed asset data, and maximized the functions of the fixed asset management system. Manage fixed assets more easily and efficiently.

The whole set of solutions consists of modules such as daily asset management, depreciation management, report statistics, key assets, and system management. Asset management provides management functions such as asset increase, decrease, transfer, lease, decommissioning, storage, idle, scrapping, and allocation, and provides all kinds of required reports, as well as flexible and diverse statistics and queries. Paste bar codes on fixed assets to facilitate their inclusion in the database and ensure timely information updates. At the same time, the uniqueness of the barcode allows Guangdong Unicom to track the fixed asset management throughout the process. It can be more convenient, quicker and more accurate during asset inventory or inspection, which greatly improves staff efficiency.

Data exchange between the fixed asset system and the barcode device: download the asset information of the fixed asset system to the handheld barcode reading and acquisition device as a benchmark for inventory; at the same time, upload the actual inventory data to the fixed asset system to assist in completing the inventory within the system Data checking function.

The system structure diagram is as follows:

Barcode data reading and retrieval must be carried out flexibly in accordance with the conditions required by Guangdong Unicom (including asset classification, asset catalog, card number, use department, physical number, etc.); data import and export need to support multiple methods (including customized format TXT, EXCEL File, or open interface to directly connect with Oracle system). The content of the barcode can include the use department, quantity, address, change of the property of the fixed asset, and other remarks information. Whether in daily management and one-time fixed asset inventory, comprehensive barcodes can achieve rapid management results with low error rates.

The S4M barcode printer provided by Zebra Company undertakes the important task of data conversion in the entire hardware system. Zebra S4M thermal printer can meet a variety of label printing requirements. It is easy to use, uses a durable metal frame design, has a complete 8-inch (203 mm) media roll capacity (can reduce label replacement), and supports multiple connection methods (serial port, parallel port, USB, built-in 10/100 Network card or 802.11b wireless network card).

The front control panel of the S4M printer is easy to operate, and its mature media loading design on the side of the fuselage not only allows users to quickly and easily load print media, but also effectively eliminates the threads of labels and ribbons. Therefore, the working time of the operator is effectively saved, and the work efficiency and work quality are improved.

Implementation Effect


With the help of the new asset management system, Guangdong Unicom has realized high-efficiency fixed asset management, overcoming the obstacles to management caused by problems such as the type and quantity of fixed assets and the inability to reflect the book in time due to asset transfers. The use of bar codes to track assets throughout the process and real-time information entry allows fixed asset information to be updated quickly and in a timely manner, avoiding management errors caused by untimely information updates.

Not only that, due to the reduction of human resource costs brought about by the improvement of efficiency, Guangdong Unicom also has more business development resources.

In the past few years, the cooperation of many domestic advanced enterprises and the world’s leading enterprises has greatly promoted the progress of fixed asset management of Chinese enterprises. “The use of automatic identification technology to manage corporate fixed assets has become an inevitable trend in the Chinese market. In today’s increasingly fierce market competition, solutions to reduce costs and improve efficiency are the biggest temptation for enterprises. We and Yingzhi The best domestic enterprises such as science and technology cooperate to provide good solutions for the industry and promote the development of China’s informatization and are very proud of this,” said the person in charge of Zebra Technology in the United States.
