WMS - WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

What is WMS? It stands for Warehouse Management System. It concerns all warehouse logistics. In other words, this is the software who knows WHAT EXACTLY happens in the warehouse and HOW to manage processes, people and machines. They have to work the best way altogether. Neither the accounting software, nor even the ERP do so. The WMS - Warehouse Management Software does it.
