Frequently Asked Questions
Read a selection of some of the questions about WMS and its impact on Delivery & Logistics that we get asked most frequently.
Integration is the process to connect two or more systems electronically to enable automatic data flows. Apart from reducing manual input and increasing accuracy, systems integrations allow for scalability in the organisation.
IntaData is our messaging transport and transform platform. Created from scratch in 2017, IntaData sends and receives a number of different files and formats to and from customers and suppliers. One example is that we receive a .CSV file with Sales Orders from a customer’s Point of Sale system and then we convert it to the requirement for our WMS. We may then send out a despatch confirmation to another client in an XML format.
The centre of the warehouse is inventory or stock control and that is usually a core feature of a warehouse management system. Some of the main functions would be to ensure a first in, first out rotation of stock, batch control, lot visibility and tracking inventory costs across stock instances. The two functions that work most closely with inventory are purchasing – to get good in, and picking – to get goods out. Transport planning systems, robotics for automatic storage and retrieval systems and handheld devices for scanning during warehouse activities all form part of modern warehouse management.
