The only way to configure XYZ-related data elements in ProTrack Warehouse is by building an import file, and importing the elements one at a time. This section refers to the spreadsheet, "SOP “SOP for XYZ Importing.xls"xls”. This is the official document containing import templates for each XYZ component. Each tab of the workbook must be completed prior to importing the data elements.

Coordinate System Origin – Coordinate values cannot be negative, thus the origin should be set with large enough to allow floors to grow in any direction. For example, the origin could be treated as (1000, 1000). When viewing a facility's facility’s layout in ProTrack Warehouse using the Facility Layout Java applet, the coordinate system axes are orientated such that the x-axis points to the right and the y-axis points downward. In other words, the x-coordinates ascend as you move to the right and the y-coordinates ascend as you move downward.

Facility ID must match EXACTLY what is configured in ProTrack Warehouse and being sent in the WMS extraction file.

When two or more Aisle Paths are needed for a single rack (i.e. due to a non-passable barriers such as a security cage fence), append lowercase letters to the AISLE element.

Segment

FAC-FLR-AISLE-1

The '-1' 1’ suffix increments ('-2'2’, '-3'3’, etc.) with additional Segments on a single Aisle Path.

Tip
titleTips
  • Travel Paths must have some "length" “length” to them. I.e. the start and end coordinates cannot lie on the same point.
  • The start and end points specified in the Travel Path import file should intersect with Aisle Paths, thus linking two Aisle Paths on two different floors.
  • Like Aisle Paths, Travel Paths MUST be either horizontal or vertical. They cannot be diagonal. This means that the Start and End coordinates must be either above or below one another, or side-by-side.
