What is Warehouse Management System (WMS)?

Also known as: WMS

A warehouse management system (WMS) is software that controls the storage and movement of stock within a warehouse — receiving, put-away, location tracking, picking, and dispatch. For retail chains it enforces FIFO/FEFO, tracks batches and expiry, and keeps inventory accurate from warehouse to store shelf.
