WMS
Acronym for Warehouse Management System, a software used to physically manage warehouses that includes many functions to locate product storage areas, prepare and optimize picking operations, manage reception of raw materials and semi-finished products. The WMS software manages the whole logistics flow within the warehouse, from goods reception to picking, before orders are transferred to carriers. Full tracking of products stored in the warehouse, both in terms of quantities and in terms of locating products across the whole internal supply chain, is pivotal in this tool
