Warehouse and inventory management
Warehouses and locations, goods receiving, guided put-away, route-optimised picking, batches and expiry dates, handheld stock counts and reordering based on actual consumption. Managers at the desk and operators with handhelds work on the same data, in real time.
Open-access demo, no sign-up: a fictional distributor with three ready-made roles.
The features at work
Every screen below is taken from the demo: you can open it and use it. Actions really move the stock and leave a trail in the log.
Stock value at average cost and FIFO, items below reorder point, turnover and days of cover, orders to fulfil, inventory accuracy and the trend of goods in and out. Alongside, today's to-do list, in order of priority.
Each site with its own aisles, racks and shelves. The map can be coloured by occupancy, category or expiry: you can see at once where there is space, where an item is and which racks should be cleared first.
Goods are received against the purchase order: delivery note quantities are checked against what was ordered and any discrepancies are flagged. Scanning the GS1 labels fills in batches and expiry dates; the system then suggests where to put each parcel and the handheld confirms it.
Orders come in from sales agents, by phone or from the online shop. Picking follows a serpentine route that walks each aisle only once, taking the right batches; then packing with weights and parcel labels, delivery note and goods out of the warehouse.
Cycle counts follow the ABC class of each item; a full stocktake can be started whenever needed. Counting is blind, from the handheld; the system works out discrepancies and adjustments: below the threshold they are posted straight away, above it Management decides.
The reorder point is not a number typed in by hand: it is calculated from actual consumption, supplier lead times and demand variability. The order proposal is already grouped by supplier and rounded to the pack size.
First expired, first out. Automatic alerts, expired batches blocked, transfers to the store suggested.
Where a batch came from, where it is now, which customers received it. One-click recall: stock blocked and customers to notify.
Items, locations, GS1 batches and outgoing parcels: real codes, readable by any scanner.
Weighted average cost and FIFO side by side, ABC analysis, turnover by category, slow-moving items. CSV export.
Variants, batches, expiry dates, serial numbers, units of measure and pack sizes, photos, EAN codes: all in the item record.
Every order with its status; every goods in, goods out, move and adjustment with author, time and document.
The operator app
It runs on handheld terminals with a built-in scanner and on Android phones and iPhones, also with a Bluetooth scanner. Operators see only their own tasks, one at a time, and the system checks every step.
Who it's for
From a small stockroom with a single operator to a network of warehouses with retail outlets: we start from the way you work today.
Manufacturing and trading companies that want to know what they have, where it is and what it is worth, without spreadsheets to keep in sync.
Many items, batches and expiry dates, several warehouses and deliveries every day: fast picking, FEFO and traceability for recalls.
Orders from the online shop, quick picking and packing, carrier labels and up-to-date availability on the website.
Maintenance, installations, facility management, technical support: spare parts and materials in stockrooms and vans, with serial numbers and consumption per job site.

Getting started
Timing depends on the number of sites, items and integrations: we agree it together after the initial analysis.
We look at how you work today: sites, locations, items, documents, people and the systems to connect.
We set up warehouses and locations, import master data and opening stock, and connect your systems.
We label racks and items, prepare the handhelds and train managers and operators on their own tasks.
We start with an opening stock count and stay with you through the first weeks, fine-tuning whatever is needed.
