DDD tales from ProductLand - NewCrafts Paris - May 2024Alberto Brandolini
Are you working on a Software Product and trying to apply Domain-Driven Design concepts?
There may be some surprises, because DDD wasn't born for that. While some ideas work like a charm, other need to be adapted to the different scenario.
Making the implicit explicit will help us uncover what will work and what won't.
About 10 years after the original proposal, EventStorming is now a mature tool with a variety of formats and purposes.

Introduction
In our days, doing business becomes more and more complicated, as every part of the product
supply chain must be managed in an optimal way, which will not only assure the good
manufacturing, storage, distribution and sales, but will also add value to the final product while
reducing the operating costs. According to a recently published study of the Aberdeen Group, the top
issues that today’s supply chain executives have to deal with are the need to support increased sales
without increasing staff or space, the limitations and the availability of warehouse space and the
increasing demand/supply fluctuations. This paper is focusing on warehouse management,
recognizing the importance of a well-managed warehouse for the product value and the
companies’ profitability.
Warehouse Management System (WMS) Definition
It is a software application which supports the daily operations of a warehouse. The software
application allows for a system of centralized
management of warehousing tasks including inventory control, tracking, and
the location of stock items. WMS may work on their own as a single application or be an
integrated part of a larger system. (Warehouse Management System (WMS), 2014)
By using software for warehouse management, companies are able to improve the processes of
receiving, putting-away, picking, packing and shipping (www.barcoding.com, 2012), thus
reducing the time required for the products’ transfer to their final destination. The process
automation also allows the electronic distribution of all the required documents for the
entrance and the exit of containers in and out of the warehouse, thus reducing the costs and
developing a more sustainable company.
Although the installation of a full-scale warehouse management system can be a costly
investment, it adds a big value to the company and offers a great ROI. A warehouse
management system package can help the business become bigger while controlling perfectly
its warehouse flows.
The purpose of this paper is the comparison of two warehouse management systems, the
HighJump Warehouse Advantage WMS Software and the Accellos One Warehouse.
4. 3

increase their accuracy up to 99%, thus avoiding costly errors, reducing shrinkage and spoilage and
increasing revenue opportunities in the same time. By achieving all the aforementioned, companies will
be able to exceed customers’ expectations and, furthermore, the profits from the use of a WMS will pay
off this low-cost investment in minimum time. (www.highjump.com, 2008)
As mentioned in the company’s website “HighJump Warehouse Advantage is a uniquely adaptable
architecture that empowers fast, low-cost business process (workflow) configuration for changing
business requirements— quickly and without the use of expensive and risky custom code.”
(www.highjump.com, 2008)
The developing company of the system focuses on its ability to adapt to the particular needs of every
company with the least efforts, as no custom code is needed, thanks to its core architecture.
Furthermore, all the updates are external to the core software, thus making the upgrade and support
easy and low-cost. (www.highjump.com, 2008)
A good example of the ease of updating this WMS, is that in HighJump’s supply chain software
"app store", the HighJump® App Station™, HighJump offers a way to add functionality to
HighJump Warehouse Advantage without wasting time or money on the customization of the
code and without the need to involve the software vendor. (HighJump Warehouse Advantage
WMS Software, 2014)
Technical Details
HighJump Warehouse Advantage utilizes multi-threading, multiprocessing and in- memory applications,
enabling the system to run at optimal speed. Vertical and horizontal scalability can also be achieved
through the use of additional CPUs and features like network load balancing (NLB). Furthermore, it
supports centralized IT deployments, which allows easy central reporting of activity across all sites.
HighJump Warehouse Advantage can be deployed either on-site via the Oracle database or
Microsoft SQL Server or in the cloud so as to eliminate the required administration and
equipment issues for the deployment of a traditional ‘fat client’ interface and to reduce
telecommunications costs. It runs on Windows 2000, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 and it can
be easily integrated with other software systems such as Microsoft Dynamics, SAP, and Oracle.
It also offers full support for multinational facilities and supply chain processes, while it is fully

reporting, HighJump applications are able to communicate seamlessly with the order
6. 5
management, planning, voice, transportation and external supply chain systems, as well as
support partner, supplier, vendor and customer networks. (www.highjump.com, 2008)
Another advantage of this WMS is its easy-to-use and consistent Web-based user interface,
which minimizes the need for staff training, thus lowering the costs. In addition, it can be easily
configured by each company in order to make the content more relevant to its particular needs.
In order to facilitate even more the installation of the HighJump Advantage WMS, HighJump
has established the HighJump University. Its purpose is to prepare the companies’ staff to
operate and administer their HighJump Warehouse Advantage system on a daily basis and to be
able to update it following the latest trends. The companies’ responsible teams receive
instructor-led classroom trainings and access to Internet-based eLearning courses.

Competitive Advantage
“AccellosOne Warehouse delivers a powerful, scalable and flexible real-time warehouse
management system that helps you boost productivity, reduce costs, shorten order fulfillment
times, increase customer satisfaction and deliver a rapid return on investment (ROI)”.
(ACCELLOSONE WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, 2014) These are the strengths of this
WMS described by its developers.
One of the biggest strengths of AccellosOne is the integration of all the warehouse software
systems, such as accounting/order and shipping software systems. Hence, the warehouse
managers can have a complete real-time control of their warehouse, increasing the efficiency of
the process. Moreover, the 99.9% order accuracy (findaccountingsoftware.com), the on time
shipping, the minimization of inventory costs, and the decrease of labor costs allow every
company that uses it to have a very quick ROI.
Another key point is the visibility that the system offers. As internal and external users can look
at the warehouse operations’ status, they can offer better customer service and make better
8. 7
sales deals knowing the available inventory. (ACCELLOSONE WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM, 2014)
According to findaccountingsoftware.com, the benefits of implementing Accellos One
Warehouse include paperless warehouse, accurate, real-time validation of every warehouse
function using handhelds, barcode and RFID technology, elimination of transcription and data
entry errors with real-time data capture, minimization of handling steps, better customer
service , creation of custom reports and pack slips based on specific client needs
(findaccountingsoftware.com)
Technical Details
AccellosOne Warehouse is built on a web-centric design, so it can reach as far as every
company needs. There is a variety of available modules from the traditional warehouse
management features to dynamic ones, such as container building, repackaging, voice and
RFID. It has a deep enough functionality which enables it to automate big companies as easily
as small ones. Furthermore, it consists of an array of modules that the companies can use in
order to manage their warehouse and control their inventories. Those are the Crystal Reports
which are interfaces to print bills of loading, invoices, pack slip and other documentation on
laser printers, Web Dispatch’s Reports, EDI Systems to generate all required data in standard
advance shipping notices (ASNs) Accounting, Order-Entry, ERP Systems and Shipping
Systems. (ACCELLOSONE WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, 2014)
AccellosOne Warehouse integrates seamlessly with many popular accounting/order-entry
packages, including Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, SAP and Infor ERP systems and shipping systems
to provide the warehousing link in the total supply chain solution. In addition, AccellosOne
Warehouse integrates with the rest of the AccellosOne Supply Chain Suite, making sure all
applications are getting the right information in real time.
Sage Integration
AccellosOne can integrate with Sage Accpac, Sage Pro, MAS 90, MAS 200 and MAS 500 to
provide companies with a completely integrated system for finance and inventory
management, reducing overall warehouse operations costs, such as pricking, packing, shipping,
and internal stock movement.
Microsoft Dynamics Integration
Microsoft Dynamics system can be transformed into a complete ERP software system by the
addition of an interface to the Accellos WMS. Accellos One can extend some Dynamics
GP capabilities in order to allow managers to automate container receiving and back order
9. 8
processing. Moreover, Microsoft Dynamics NAV system can be enhanced with the addition of
an RFID tracking feature. Microsoft Dynamics GP users will be able to manage their orders and
the physical handling of goods in the warehouse accurately and efficiently thanks to the
integration with the Accellos WMS. Finally, Accellos One also integrates with Microsoft
Dynamics AX, extending its functionality beyond the back-office. The system adds advanced
technologies like RFID capabilities, optimized pick-pack functionality, and directed put-away
features. The XML SOAP interface that the system uses after the integration enables real-time
warehouse process operation and real-time visibility, contributing to the improvement of
operational efficiency, productivity and accuracy.
SAP Business One Integration
Accellos One Warehouse for SAP Business One uses the UI (User Interface) and DI (Digital
Interface) API (Application Programming Interface) to give SAP warehouse management and
multi-bin functionality. Some of the features and functionality of an integrated Accellos/SAP
system include: multi-bin inventory to optimize stock movement, real-time inventory position
tracking, batch and serial tracking, hard allocation reserves product from specific bin locations,
ensuring that the right product goes to the right customer, FIFO, LIFO or expiry date stock
rotation, labor statistics reporting, warehouse efficiency reporting
Comparison
Adaptability
Both WMSs are highly adaptable to the companies’ needs, as additional functionalities can
enhance them and make them complete. HighJump has developed one edition on which
companies can add as much functionality as they need, whereas Accellos One is available in
three editions, each of which is suitable for a different company size and they develop from
simple warehouse management applications to completely automated systems.
Interface
In terms of interface, HighJump’s screenshots are more clear and use-friendly, as there is more
animation which enables users to quickly understand the status of each indicator and
contributes to the elimination of errors. On the other hand, Accellos One’s interface is more
old-fashioned with too much text that requires the undistracted attention of the user while
increasing the risk of mistakes.
Integration
10. 9
Both warehouse management systems allow seamless integration with a very big variety of
management software. They both score very high in this criterion, giving companies the
possibility to connect all their management software systems, thus facilitating their work and
contributing to their processes’ operation and consequently to their efficiency improvement.
Accuracy and ROI
Both developing companies are very promising concerning the accuracy of their systems and
the speed of the investment’s ROI. With 99.9% accuracy, they seem to be very competitive,
making the choice very difficult for companies.
Conclusion
In conclusion, as the importance of warehouse management becomes more and more evident
to executive managers, more warehouse management systems are being developed, with
developing companies creating systems with increasing functionality, accuracy and user-
friendliness. Hence, differentiation becomes very difficult.
When top managers need to decide which warehouse management system is ideal for their
companies, they need to consider many factors, such as the cost of ownership and the ROI, the
accuracy, the functionality and scalability of the system, the user-friendliness, the cost of
installation and the integration level. The most important factor though, is the needs of the
company, which must be the priority that will determine which WMS better fits its needs.

Appendix 2 (Definitions)
Put Away: Internal logistics process from receipt of a load to when it is stocked in its final
destination within a warehouse. Activities may include inspection, breaking down the load into
more mobile components, determining the appropriate destination, preparing the
destination location, transporting the items, and physically stocking them.
(businessdictionary.com)
Cross Docking: Distribution method in which the goods flow in an unbroken sequence
from receiving to shipping (dispatching), thus eliminating storage.
(www.businessdictionary.com)
ASN (Advanced Shipping Notice): Message that informs a consignee of the actual dispatch of
a shipment and indicates its expected arrival date and other particulars.
(www.businessdictionary.com)
Kitting: Process in which individually separate but related items are grouped, packaged, and
supplied together as one unit. (www.businessdictionary.com)
Slotting: Sum paid by a vendor or manufacturer to a retail chain or establishment for
(1) making room for a product on its store shelves, (2) making room for the product in
its warehouse, (3) entering the product data in its inventory system, and
(4) programming its computers to recognize the product's bar code. (www.businessdictionary.c
om)
13. 12
Task Interleaving: Term used in describing functionality of warehouse management systems to
mix tasks to reduce travel time. Sending a forklift driver to put away a pallet on his way to his
next pick is an example of task interleaving. (www.likeforex.com)
Multithreading: Type of multitasking in which all tasks come from the same program, and are
seemingly executed at the same time. This simultaneous processing is deceptive because the
CPU is actually switching its activity very rapidly among all the threads (which are
executable objects, each with its own stacks, registers, and instruction counters).
(www.businessdictionary.com)
Load Balancing: The act of spreading work out between multiple computers in an effort to
not overload one machine. By balancing the work load out, the user limits the chances of
machine failure from too many processes going on at one time. Load balancing also allows the work to
be accomplished faster. Popular websites typically implement load balancing to allow their website to
respond quicker to requests made by users. (www.businessdictionary.com)
SOA (Service Oriented Architecture): A type of business information
architecture model designed to allow all current business processes as well as future
process additions to be integrated. Large processes and applications are broken into
smaller units referred to as “services”. Access to the services can be granted to
different employees and customers. By using Service-Oriented Architecture, a company can
allow the sharing of data across business units. (www.businessdictionary.com)
RMA (Return Material Authorization): E-commerce term that describes an arrangement in
which the supplier of a good or product degrees to have a customer or client ship that item
back to them in exchange for a refund or credit. This sort of agreement, which is also called a
return merchandise authorization or returned goods authorization, allows for a higher degree
of guaranteed quality. (www.techopedia.com)
ODBC (Open Database Connectivity): Software protocol that allows exchange of data between
different proprietary databases. (www.businessdictionary.com)
