Which is more suitable for warehouse management, WMS warehouse management system or ERP system? I believe that many inexperienced people are at a loss about this. Therefore, this paper summarizes the causes and solutions of the problems. Through this article, I hope you can solve this problem.

According to the survey, most enterprises use ERP system to manage warehouses, and many enterprises use ERP to manage other aspects. However, it is obvious that ERP can not meet the needs of enterprises in warehouse management, and there is a lot of lack of ERP, so many enterprises have introduced it. Many people may not understand why it is necessary to introduce WMS after introducing ERP. Is WMS system more powerful than ERP system? Next, let's analyze the reasons.

ERP is an integrated enterprise management software, management touches all parts of the company, while WMS is a system for warehouses and consumer logistics From the professional point of view of warehouse management, there are many deficiencies in ERP system, for example, manual input is still used to input warehouse information, which is inefficient and error-prone, while WMS uses automatic identification technology to automatically identify and collect product information and upload it to the system in real time, which greatly improves work efficiency and can eradicate the possibility of data errors.

Why WMS system is better than ERP in warehouse management

WMS system helps to automate the operation of the warehouse. Its main purpose is to manage the storage, transportation and disposal of goods, such as shipping, acceptance, sorting, packing. A good WMS will handle the following tasks:

1. Manage warehouse location

2. Application rate of optimized location

3. Track inventory

4. Efficiently manage warehouse operation

5. Avoid sending the wrong products

6. Early warning of the validity period of goods in time

7. Real-time inventory data

8. Quick inventory

The application of WMS system can complete the first-in-first-out criterion, can use automatic identification technology such as bar code to track inventory, and can manage inventory well, while ERP system manages the key areas of the company. In warehouse management, its main purpose is to persist in showing the latest inventory quantity of the warehouse, efficient management of procurement, consumption and sales data management, disposal of accounts, and so on.

The advantage of WMS system in warehouse management exceeds that of ERP system. For example, WMS system provides detailed and clear inventory location but ERP cannot; WMS system can remind users that products are almost out of date; bar code technology and wireless identification technology in WMS system prevent shipping errors; according to the warehouse management status of your enterprise, you can develop a dedicated WMS system to deal with these warehouse management problems.
