Warehouse Management System

PEAK PERFORMANCE

Today, more than ever, companies must operate at maximum efficiency and provide superior service to ensure profitability. Your ability to effectively manage your warehouse, reduce costs and ensure smoothly run sales and fulfillment operations is critical to your success. From receiving inventory and timely order fulfillment to automated validation of warehouse activities and accurate inventory control, your warehouse operating system must be designed to achieve peak performance across

the entire enterprise. ACCPAC Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a powerful, feature-rich solution for automating the materials-handling

processes of retailers, manufacturers, distributors and third-party

logistics providers. By integrating advanced radio-frequency (RF)

and barcoding technologies with core warehousing functionality,

ACCPAC WMS™ provides comprehensive fulfillment center and

warehouse management solutions that include order management,

receiving, stocking, replenishment, picking and other related

warehouse tasks.

MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY

ACCPAC WMS is a complete warehouse management solution

specifically designed to increase inventory-handling accuracy,

improve allocation of human resources within the warehouse and

reduce carrying costs associated with obsolete and slow-moving

stock. With ACCPAC WMS, you can efficiently pick, pack and

ship orders – putting nearly 100 percent picking and shipping

accuracy within your reach.

ACCPAC WMS scales to accommodate the varied demands

of small to highly complex, high-volume distribution centers

and works in conjunction with ACCPAC Advantage Series™ and

ACCPAC Pro Series™. Additionally, ACCPAC WMS is specifically

designed to interface with industry-standard shipping systems

that enable an automated picking, packing and shipping solution.

This unique and seamless integration capability allows ACCPAC

WMS to effectively orchestrate the movement of personnel

and inventory. As a result, multiple orders can be picked in a

single wave by one or multiple warehouse pickers, saving time

and money.

COMPLETE CONTROL

ACCPAC WMS utilizes RF and barcoding technologies,

creating a powerful picking, packing and shipping warehouse

management solution. ACCPAC WMS makes order fulfillment

easy by allowing warehouse managers to view which orders

can be filled immediately. Equipped with RF-based terminals,

warehouse personnel are given explicit directions for picking

every order such as quantity, location and other carton-specific

requirements. With ACCPAC WMS, you’re in control, guiding

warehouse personnel to the right location, automatically

generating shipping labels on demand and indicating the right

size box for the order.

Whichever picking style works for your warehouse – wave,

batch, simultaneous or sequential zone – ACCPAC WMS

manages the process efficiently and cost effectively. Picking

inventory in a warehouse that is managed by ACCPAC WMS

means never having to look for missing stock or walking

aimlessly around the warehouse to fulfill customer orders.

With ACCPAC WMS all your warehouse activities operate

at peak performance, enabling your enterprise to:

 Increase order accuracy

 Eliminate paper error

 Pick and pack concurrently

 Fill multiple orders simultaneously

FULL PRODUCTIVITY

ACCPAC WMS offers you the ability to maximize the

productivity of your warehouse personnel. By maintaining

detailed information on the flow of inventory from both “pick”

and “overstock” locations, your staff is directed to a specific bin

knowing the item will be there every time. Furthermore, requests

to replenish pick bins can be managed during off-peak hours

or coordinated to run simultaneously with picking activities

without interruption.

ACCURATE RECEIVING AND SHIPPING

REAL-TIME VISIBILITY AND DATA

Visibility and information are key to productivity. ACCPAC

WMS’ Web dispatch screen serves as a repository for all missioncritical

information needed to manage your entire warehouse

operation. From the Web dispatch screen, orders can be closely

monitored, managed and distributed. With this easy-to-use

browser-based interface, ACCPAC WMS enables a complete view

of all warehouse activities that extends far beyond the walls of

the warehouse. As a result, you’ll be able to generate and share

reports on location, inventory levels and movement, and other

critical data in real time.

ON-TIME DELIVERY

Your customers count on you to deliver the right product –

on time, every time. Sending the wrong package or items to a

customer is more than just embarrassing – it drives up costs and

affects credibility. Add the cost of compliance fines and violating

service level agreements, and it’s clear – the shipping dock is your

last chance to ensure your shipments are perfect – every time.

With ACCPAC WMS inventory is tracked throughout the

handling process and finalized during shipment, in turn

eliminating costly errors while delivering industry-leading

service and delivery excellence.

ACCPAC WMS offers a streamlined shipping solution that

produces shipping labels, packing slips, carton-content labels

and advanced shipping notices on demand, eliminating errors

in transcription from customer orders. ACCPAC WMS also

automatically estimates shipping weight based on the items

in the order. When integrated with a multi-carrier shipping

system, ACCPAC WMS offers you the ability to shop for the

best shipping rates, improving your bottom line and heightening

customer satisfaction.

REDUCED LABOR COSTS

ACCPAC WMS saves on labor costs by significantly reducing

the need for dedicated shippers and checkers, freeing warehouse

personnel for other activities. Upon completing an order, shippers

simply tape up the box and put it aside for the carrier. With

ACCPAC WMS, you know exactly what’s going out the door

and can give your customers the immediate shipment information

they need. Equally important, your ACCPAC Inventory Control

and Order Entry modules are immediately updated. As a result,

everyone across your organization, from your warehouse

personnel to your customer service department, is provided

complete access to all order shipment information in real time.

EFFECTIVE RECEIPT AND PUTAWAY

ERROR-FREE ORDER FULFILLMENT

The ACCPAC WMS receipt and putaway solution effectively

moves goods from your receiving dock to your warehouse and

into the right location. ACCPAC WMS is a total RF-based

solution that effectively automates your inventory and putaway

processes, facilitating timely and accurate order fulfillment by

creating an optimized order-picking environment for warehouse

personnel. Tightly integrated with your ACCPAC Purchase Order

module, ACCPAC WMS eliminates receiving errors by matching

the receipt of goods through barcoding and original purchase

order details, while reporting any discrepancies.

ACCPAC WMS is designed to ensure a highly-efficient receiving

environment and allows for greater control in the allocation

of human resources, while eliminating the introduction of

transcription errors. You can assign multiple employees to the

receipt and putaway of large inbound shipments, or multiple

receipts can be simultaneously checked-in by a single employee.

ACCPAC WMS also notifies warehouse staff if a received good

is needed to fulfill a customer back order. In this event, instead

of moving the item to inventory, it is prepared for shipping and

sent directly to the awaiting customer.

During putaway, ACCPAC WMS allows you to capture

important information about incoming items such as weight, size,

expiration date and more. ACCPAC WMS can be configured

to store products either in a designated location and/or multiple

locations throughout the warehouse – accelerating the putaway

process. ACCPAC WMS also enables high-volume processing

of inventory during peak seasons. The final phase of receipt

and putaway processing is the automated update of purchase

orders and inventory information into your ACCPAC® accounting

system. This automation eliminates manual intervention and

errors, while providing accurate and up-to-date inventory control.

BETTER INVENTORY CONTROL

OPTIMAL INVENTORY BALANCES

ACCPAC WMS provides accurate and immediate information

on the quantity, location, condition, status and history of any

item in your warehouse – at any time. Fully integrated with

ACCPAC Pro Series™ and ACCPAC Advantage Series™, ACCPAC

WMS ensures complete control and flow of information between

your back office and warehouse floor. An easy-to-use browserbased

interface provides the ability to generate reports and track

inventory movement across your entire enterprise.

ACCPAC WMS gives you complete control over your inventory

and offers you a clear picture of your warehouse activities. This

includes up-to-the-minute notifications of when replenishment is

needed, a full audit report of every product moved through your

warehouse and automatic updates to your ACCPAC Inventory

Control module. In addition, ACCPAC WMS dramatically

improves the accuracy of physical inventory counting by date,

product and bin location using advanced barcoding technology.

With complete inventory control management – down to the

contents of specific bins – you can increase productivity and save

on warehouse labor costs. ACCPAC WMS supports “first in,

first out” (FIFO) and “last in, first out” (LIFO) stock rotation,

serialized inventory, lot and expiration-date tracking, and other

key inventory control functions, enabling complete control over

shipped products.

ACCPAC WMS gives you the flexible, automated support you

need to efficiently run a fast-paced, high-volume and accurate

warehouse operation. With ACCPAC WMS, you can optimize

warehouse resources and reduce costs by automating pick,

putaway and replenishment functions, and integrate barcode

and wireless RF-based terminals to enable accurate and efficient

tracking of goods through your facility.
