WMS is a system designed to effectively and efficiently manage all operations that may take place in a warehouse.

It is the general name of the management information system, which is Warehouse Management System. WMS effectively and efficiently manages all the operations that can take place in a warehouse, ensures that the operations are completed without paper, in the shortest time, with the least human and machine resources, without errors, to make a decision (decision support system), to monitor the operations performed on-line and to report the information of the performed operations. It is a system designed to offer WMS can be a stand-alone software or work as a module of an ERP system. Since warehouse processes are linked to other processes of companies (finance, sales, planning, physical location supply, tracking of orders and shipments, stock cycle times and stock performance, reduction in loading errors, etc.) have a positive effect.

Warehouse Management System (WMS) is carried out in two separate processes as backoffice (Web) and handheld terminals. Functions such as planning, management and reporting are performed on the backoffice (Web) side, and real stock movements are performed on the hand terminal interface. The WMS solution can be run from any desired location on a web-based basis via the backoffice leg browser. There are no hardware and installation costs.

It is possible to use it independently or integrated with the ERP systems used by our customers.

Warehouses can be divided into corridors, shelves, sections and floors. Each area where the product is placed on the shelf can be defined as a separate location. Width, height, depth and weight information can be defined on the basis of each location and product.

Warehouse Management System Benefits:

  • Decreases inventory values
  • Increases workforce productivity
  • Provides significant improvement in shipping accuracy (RF-ID and Barcoding systems)
  • Ensures a healthy fulfillment of customer orders to a large extent
  • Provides the ability to monitor FIFO, LIFO, FEFO and stocks with special conditions
  • Provides inter-unit integration

In addition, it has a positive effect on operations other than Warehouse Management System (WMS) operations (production planning, physical location supply, tracking of orders and shipments, stock cycle times and stock performance, reduction in loading errors, etc.).

Goods Acceptance
During the Goods Receiving phase, the empty space in the warehouse is determined, and the system makes suggestions about where the relevant products should be placed. Certain sections can be blocked for a product group if needed. ASN (Advanced Shipment Notification) integration can be made with suppliers. Loading information (ASN) can be obtained by the supplier before the product departs. It is possible to determine the products that will come to the warehouse in advance, allowing for appropriate field inquiries. Shelf Placement tasks are created automatically for received products. The handheld terminal user can assign the products on the assigned task to the locations suggested by the system.
Cross Docking It is the process of sending the goods from the suppliers to the dispatch points within a certain period of time without placing them in the warehouse. With the Cross Docking solution, it is possible to direct the products from the collection area to the shipping area without being placed on the shelf. Thus, unnecessary waste of time is avoided.

Shipment Planning
Orders received from different platforms (Order Desk, Telephone, Fax, B2B, etc.) are managed in a single window in a common pool and can be easily planned. Orders can be prioritized by the Shipment Planning Officer on the basis of regional, location, shipping address or customer.

Order Picking
Orders that are planned collectively by order planning can be displayed on the screen of different salespeople according to the relevant plans. Responsible persons can be appointed for tasks. By running route optimization for each created task, multiple orders can be collected at the same time within the shortest walking distance. Saved tasks are automatically distributed to the orders they belong to and closed. Dashboard Analyzes can be taken to allow KPI analyzes and performance tests on the basis of salespeople.

Packaging
Packaging tasks can be created automatically for completed tasks, and the officer in the packaging area can call the relevant shipments and double check according to the waybill number. As a result of the verified packaging tasks, the package barcode is automatically created and pasted on the package. Vehicle tonnage controls are made to prevent overcapacity.

Delivery
The barcodes affixed on the packages are read by the Delivery officers with Mobile Devices, and it is understood that the product cycle has been completed and the products have been delivered.
