Apr. 7, 2022
(Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Masahiko Miyahara; hereinafter "WAPE"), a group company of Works Applications, Inc. (headquartered in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Masahiko Miyahara, President & CEO; hereinafter "WAPE") announced today that it will provide an inventory function linked with two major RFID readers in its fixed asset management system, "HUE Asset".
The inventory function using RFID readers will enable users to check multiple assets at once, even from remote locations, reducing the time and effort required for inventory by more than 90%. Furthermore, the entire business process can be digitized by automating ledger registration, journal entry creation, and depreciation calculation based on inventory results.

1. Linkage with RFID readers reduces the time and effort required for fixed asset inventory by more than 90%.
RFID is an automatic recognition technology that uses radio waves to read and write data recorded on dedicated tags in a non-contact manner. Compared to bar codes and QR codes, RFID has a longer communication distance and has the advantage of being able to scan multiple tags at once from a distance. Amidst the recent trend of DX promotion, there has been a focus on improving operational efficiency through the use of RFID in various scenes, such as factories, offices, and stores. In addition, the spread of RFID in various industries has lowered the unit cost of RFID, and there is a growing trend to utilize RFID in business areas where investment was difficult in the past.
WAPE's fixed asset management system, "HUE Asset," provides a function that directly links inspection results from the readers of two major RFID manufacturers. By using RFID for fixed asset inventory inspections, the process of checking off items one by one on a paper list can be changed to simply holding a reader over the items. This will reduce the man-hours required for fixed asset inventory by more than 90% and promote on-site DX.

2. Automate the process of retirement and transfer of assets based on inventory results
When conducting fixed asset inventory, the accounting department usually records the information collected from each site, such as "the asset has already been disposed of" or "the asset has been moved to another location," in the fixed asset ledger, and a large amount of work is required to reflect the information in journal entries and depreciation calculations.
HUE Asset" provides a function that automatically registers information on "disposals" and "transfers" in the fixed asset ledger based on information collected using RFID, etc., and prepares journal entries and depreciation calculations accordingly. The accounting department only needs to "check" the automatically generated information to complete the process.
WAPE will continue to follow technological trends and actively incorporate them into its products in order to change the concept of "work" in Japanese companies and make work more creative.
