FAQ about our warehouse management system
What is a warehouse management system?
A warehouse management system is a software application that helps to monitor and manage the day-to-day operations in a warehouse. The software guides stock receipt and storage, optimizes order picking and shipping and advises on stock replenishment.
A WMS system controls three processes, namely:
- Inbound: Where are the goods stored most efficiently.
- Storage: Where are the goods stored?
- Result: How can the goods leave the warehouse in the most efficient way?

Why a Saas warehouse management system is the best solution on the market?
Companies in the logistics sphere must always be ready to take advantage of system integrations and innovations that create benefits and opportunities in
the industry. Historically, on-premise infrastructure has played a major role in the development and maintenance of the software systems used. This meant that companies had to budget and account for physical infrastructure costs, maintenance costs, licensing costs, upgrade costs, utility overheads, software development / purchase costs, labor costs, etc. This of course meant that huge budgetary allocations for WMS software had to be made.
With a cloud WMS, the warehouse manager does not have to worry about system components or software development. Based on monthly subscription costs, he has access to the ready-to-use warehouse management system. Updates and support are included in the subscription cost.
The advantages are:
- Scalability
- Fast initial and incremental WMS implementation process
- Competitive cost and service structure
- Accessibility
- Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
- Data security
- Decision Risk Recovery
- Flexibility
What is the Return On Investment (ROI) of a Saas warehouse management system?
When a warehouse manager is considering a warehouse management system implementation, he must be able to justify its implementation from a business perspective. That’s where the ROI concept comes into the picture. To get a good picture, the warehouse manager should go through the following steps:
Problem definition: Where are the bottlenecks and problems in the warehouse operation?
KPI definition: Determine what the Key Performance Indicators are.
Cost Center Identification: Determine the costs associated with the current problems.
Implementation costs: What are the implementation costs?
Calculating the ROI: Calculate the savings achieved and new revenue to be achieved and compare these against the implementation costs of the wms.
Can a WMS be linked to an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) or TMS (transport management system)?
Yes, a warehouse management system can be linked to other systems by using an API. CORAX uses the advanced CORAX API and EDI for this.
