Intermediate

The "LFS for Advanced Users" course builds directly on the course "LFS for Beginners" course. Users acquire advanced knowledge of LFS over the 3-day course. While the Beginners course focuses on mastering the basic processes, the Advanced course looks at more complex processes, such as cross-docking, adjustment postings and multi-stage picking.

The course also covers control center functions, such as stock information and order control. A series of practical exercises in our fully equipped training center demonstrate how to use the system and facilitate the implementation of the processes in your own warehouse.
