The use of solutions based on technologies of radio frequency (RF) is a common practice in many business areas. Specifically, within the logistics field, such solutions have emerged as a valuable ally. The proper selection and implementation of RF hardware and software, to optimize a number of key tasks, the location of goods, inventory and management of packaging, are just some of the processes that can benefit from using RF terminals and applications .
Among the different solutions offered by SAP, you can find several features aimed at the development, implementation and maintenance support for RF applications.This variety of tools allows the integration of an SAP system with a large number of RF-based processes, while providing a platform on which to develop new functions.The most widespread of these solutions today, is known as SAPConsole or radio frequency based on SAPConsole.
The radio frequency based on SAPConsole terminal enables integration of radio-frequency-based screens in text mode, existing transactions in an SAP system [*].Sus características más importantes se describen a continuación: Their most important characteristics are described below:

- The use of glues and radio-frequency menu allows operators to guide the RF terminals in the day to day operations, you can create a menu for the processes of receiving goods, other processes for freight forwarding ...
All the above features, provides a range of benefits that help increase the productivity of the system:
- It simplifies the execution of transactions from terminals.
