Warehouse Management Implementation – Best Practices and Strategies - Part 2

In the previous chapter, we explored the different configurations and possibilities presented in the Warehouse module. In this chapter, we will concentrate on how to manage inbound and outbound operations in the warehouse.

Here, we will dive into the receive, store, and dispatch process while covering various options and use case scenarios.

To start, let’s take a moment to recall the procedures we defined in Chapter 3 when we delved into inventory management since the warehouse management system (WMS) is an extension of that module.

Here is what you will learn in this chapter:

  • Working with the inbound process and stock allocation
  • Executing internal warehouse processes such as cycle counting, replenishment, and transfer orders
  • Working with the outbound process while focusing on shipments and wave releases
