Order Management



Digital shipment order management system for warehouses

More than inventory management



Inventory management offers huge advantages for a warehouse facility. However, what is outside of the scope of inventory management systems, is the orchestration and monitoring of the processes involved, between the moment a customer order is received to the moment it is physically dispatched from the warehouse. This is under the responsibility of the systems that are usually referenced as order management systems.

Without focusing on the specifics of how goods are processed for shipment, order management is handling issues that are more closely related to administration rather than execution. It’s responsibilities often extend beyond the constrains of a single warehouse, as they oversee the smooth flow of operations across the entire enterprise, coordinate site to site transactions and distribute workload.

ERP order management vs WMS order management

Responsibilities covered by ERP and WMS systems often seem to overlap each other. This assumption is stronger regarding the area of order management. However, this is a just a misconception as each system plays a significant but different role in inventory and order management.

The main difference between them is that WMS order management relies heavily on the real-time information that is constantly collecting from all the other WMS modules. Rather than working with batch, late or out-of-date data entries, WMS order management maintains an accurate up-to-date awareness.

As part of a complete WMS system, order management provides an intelligent tool that helps you optimize handling and inventory related processes based on what actually is at any given moment.
