No warehouse today can be imagined without WMS as a crucial software solution for warehouse process optimization.
This software solution enables automation of numerous processes in the warehouse, complete system control of input, output and other internal operations in the warehouse.

By recording the deadlines, a complete insight of the deadlines is provided, so at any moment it can be seen which items in stock have a critical deadline.
Due to the fact that the system operates according to FEFO, full care is taken to minimize the costs arising from the backlog of goods in the expired warehouse.

As an important functionality is the possibility to review the productivity of the employees in the warehouse, which allows at any time to see which of the employees has done how much (ready different orders, items, weight ...).
WMS also facilitates the inventory process. It enables full and partial inventory at any time, with minimal time consuming, but at the same time with accuracy.
