About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Pillir Shows SAP Users How to Optimise Goods Receipt Reversal in New Guide

As Goods Receipt Reversals are sometimes necessary in warehouse management, the low-code/no-code cloud-native platform takes users through the proper steps of this important SAP process.

Pillir, the leading provider of low-code supply chain solutions, sheds light on the steps to optimising the goods receipt reversal in SAP EWM or other warehouse management systems.

According to the company, there may be several reasons warehouse departments might need to return goods to the suppliers for credit—for example, when goods fail to meet quality standards and the supplier is incapable of replacing them on time.

If necessary, enterprises can execute a reversal posting for a goods receipt following a few steps that may vary slightly based on the unique system configuration of a company, adds Pillir.

Upon pulling up the purchase order of the goods receipt required to reverse, a dedicated warehouse employee needs to find the material document number.

The next step is to use the transaction MIGO and select “return delivery,” followed by giving a reason behind the goods movement.

The dedicated warehouse employee can either post or save the recorded information.

Finally comes locating goods, issuing a return transfer order, and preparing the selected goods for return, explains the company.

SAP goods receipt reversal enables warehouse employees to successfully reconcile the cost of reverse goods receipt delivery when valuated differently in SAP and account for rebates or refunds.

If a goods issue processing has already been executed, the goods receipt can only be reversed once the goods issue reversal is completed, explains the company.

Pillir urges enterprises to set thought-out policies specific to their system configuration for efficiently reversing goods receipt.

A spokesperson from Pillir says, “for example, if a system is configured to immediately match the purchase order, goods receipt, and invoice, and the invoice is paid, the company will need to set policies for how to issue an SAP reverse goods receipt after invoicing.”

SAP enables automation for data sharing and reconciliation critical to goods receipt reversal for an accelerated process. However, due to employees being integral to the process, they need to be proactive in addressing discrepancies, figuring out low-grade goods, and entering the right data to start the reversal accurately.

But a warehouse running on paper-based processes is susceptible to errors, such as inaccurate posting of goods quantity, matching a quantity to the wrong purchase order, and more. On top of this, unlike a digital process, such a time- and labour-intensive manual process of data entry lacks visibility, thus decreasing warehouse efficiency.

Using mobile apps while performing warehouse processes like goods receipt reversal can be a solution. But building mobile apps, however, has been a great challenge that faces today’s warehouses and SAP-centric enterprises.

Even though SAP Fiori may offer some advantages, apps developed with Fiori cannot provide the level of customisation most modern warehouses require, explains Pillir.

Pillir suggests warehouse teams leverage ready-to-deploy highly configurable applications to overcome warehouse management challenges efficiently.

Built on industry best practices, Pillir’s suite of Warehouse Management apps provide all the essential functionalities as well as offline capabilities that teams need to run their warehouse processes while driving innovation in their SAP business applications.

Including apps for goods movement and storage bins management, physical inventory management, planning, and monitoring, pick, pack, and ship; and door, pallet, and delivery maintenance, Pillir’s Warehouse Management apps suite helps bolster productivity, slash warehouse costs, and achieve faster fulfilment.

Developed on Pillir’s low-code platform, the apps can be used on any rugged, mobile, or RF device, out of the box or quickly customised to specific processes, like following enterprise-specific policies for goods receipt reversal in SAP EWM.

In addition, a platform deeply integrated with SAP, Pillir frees warehouses from developing OData connectors for seamless data flow from mobile apps to their ERP systems.

To quote a client, “We developed and deployed over 15 apps using Pillir in only a few months. These apps work regardless of internet connectivity – as some of our processes take place in locations with no connectivity We now have increased operational efficiency.”
