A warehouse management system (WMS) is
software and processes that allow organizations to control and administer
warehouse operations from the time goods or materials enter a warehouse until
they move out. Operations in a warehouse include inventory management, picking
processes and auditing.
Warehouse Management System project is
a desktop application which is implemented in C# .net platform
A Warehouse Management System can also
be designed or configured for the organization's specific requirements; for
example, an e-commerce vendor might use a Warehouse Management System
that has different functions than a brick-and-mortar retailer. Additionally, a Warehouse
Management System may also be designed or configured specifically for the types
of goods the organization sells; for example, a sporting goods retailer would
have different requirements than a grocery chain.

Warehouse management system benefits
Although a Warehouse Management System
is complex and expensive to implement and run, organizations gain benefits that
can justify the complexity and costs.
Implementing a Warehouse Management
System can help an organization reduce labor costs, improve inventory accuracy,
improve flexibility and responsiveness, decrease errors in picking and shipping
goods, and improve customer service. Modern warehouse management systems
operate with real-time data, allowing the organization to manage the most
current information on activities like orders, shipments, receipts and any
movement of goods.
Features of warehouse management
systems
Many features are common to Warehouse
Management System products, including the following:
- Warehouse
design, which
enables organizations to customize workflow and picking logic to make sure
that the warehouse is designed for optimized inventory allocation. The WMS
establishes bin slotting that maximizes storage space and accounts for
variances in seasonal inventory.
- Inventory
tracking, which
enables the use of advanced tracking systems, including radio-frequency
identification (RFID), automatic identification and data capture (AIDC)
and barcode scanners to make sure that goods can be found easily when they
need to move.
- Receiving
and putaway,
which allows inventory putaway and retrieval, often with pick-to-light or
pick-to-voice technology to help warehouse workers locate goods.
- Picking
and packing goods,
including zone picking, wave picking and batch picking. Warehouse workers
can also use lot zoning and task interleaving functions to guide the
pick-and-pack tasks in the most efficient way.
- Shipping, which enables the WMS to
send bills-of-lading (B/L) ahead of the shipment, generate
packing lists and invoices for the shipment and send advance shipment
notifications to recipients.
- Labor
management,
which helps warehouse managers monitor workers' performance by using key
performance indicators (KPIs) that indicate workers who perform above or
below standards.
- Yard
and dock management,
which assists truck drivers coming into a warehouse to find the right
loading docks. A more complex use of yard and dock management
enables cross-docking.
- Reporting, which helps managers analyze
the performance of warehouse operations and find areas to improve.
