Managing where the goods should be deposited follows the ‘location processes’, which are governed by previously established rules and strategies. These processes are responsible for administering the order in which goods are placed in the warehouse, determining the best location according to their type, characteristics, dimensions, etc. It properly distributes product locations in the different aisles to ensure an adequate response to outgoing operations. Grouping and various processes are governed by the system hence reducing human work-load. Our WMS intelligently directs warehouse operators, AS/RS stacker cranes, shuttles and conveyors to put away material in stock locations that optimise storage and reduce material handling and fulfilment costs.

Three strategies to place stock in warehouse:

• Location through Rules & Strategies
• Management of replenishment & Consolidation tasks
• Cross Docking

Stock management is a very prominent feature in the WMS because through it, real-time visibility of the location, the status, the amount and characteristics of the warehouse stock is secured. The administration is performed with the help of an ERP. All functions of the WMS can be integrated into the rest of the company’s management system which enables the Real time inventory management.

Inventory management features are:

• Real time Storage Usage
• Supports Bar code
• User Friendly experience
• First in First out (FIFO)

Our system constantly tracks the ageing of the inventory and enables First in First out (FIFO) logic to be implemented seamlessly. The software can also highlight non-moving and slow-moving stock, which empowers users to make informed decisions. Perishable goods with a pre-determined expiry date can be tracked in the WMS. No matter your business size, our WMS is built to outgrow you. Craftsman’s WMS is configurable and scalable, it will meet the present and future demands projected by your business.

On-time and accurate shipments are key to meeting the perfect order experience which is expected by todays customers. In addition to managing the receipt and location of goods, the management system also controls the dispatch of goods. The WMS deals with processes like, the preparation of the orders that are shipped to customers, transfers to other warehouses or returns to suppliers. In short, they are responsible for the exit and drops in the warehouse stock via operations like picking, Packing, Sorting orders and their dispatch. The best pick and dispatch practices of industry leaders are imbibed in our software thereby acting as a guide during these processes, ensuring hassle free operation and enabling the fastest-error-free order fulfilment which wins the customer. The goods for dispatch are then delivered in the right sequence to the respective loading docks using an intelligent Dock Management Systems (DMS). The delivery confirmation is then automatically captured and fed to the ERP as a proof of delivery.
