SCENARIO OF USE

WMExplorer is a tool for warehouse managers to keep up-to-date with warehouse solutions. Jon’s warehouse operations is manual and paper based. He starts using WHExplorer to explore solutions that fits the increasing warehousing demands in 3-4 years.

After downloading he opens the app.

He sees that he has to sign up, simply by a username/password combination and has to confirm the link he received to his email.

He accepts notifications from this app.

In the home page he sees twitter feeds, which are updates about the latest trends and developments that can be organized by in-dustry, company or function. He clicks on the menu icon on the top left…

…and sees several buttons appearing which he will explore later. First he checks out the button on the top right…

…which is the place to enter information about his operations. He further explore the “units” tab.

This seems to be the place to enter the warehouse unit types. He does’t have the exact figures yet and decide to come back to this part later. Now he feels more like exploring to see what the app really is about and clicks again on the menu button…

…and then on industry…

He looks at the product details and does a quick comparison with other solutions...

Later, he receives several notifications about upcoming warehouse fairs, which he quicly adds to his calendar and several product and solution area updates.

After using the service for some time he feels more confident in providing the system with detailed operational data...

...and unit information.
