04 - Logistics - WMS

Shelf - Handheld - Shipping - Batch / Expiry

Every carton has its shelf.

-- Definition

A Warehouse Management System (WMS) tracks each product's location, status and owner from the moment it enters the warehouse until it leaves. Senkronix WMS unifies shelf locations, handheld picking, batch/expiry management, shipping integration and multi-warehouse operations in a single database.

N° I -- Why Custom WMS?

Past Excel,
and no going back.

Most organizations run the warehouse with Excel, paper or the stock module of a legacy ERP. At low volume there is no problem — but once 500 cartons move per day, the system collapses: boxes go missing, expiry dates are overlooked and products end up on the wrong shipment. Time lost in the warehouse cascades into losses across the entire chain.

Ready-made WMS packages (SAP EWM, Manhattan, Logo WMS) are strong, but they carry high annual license fees and force you to fit your warehouse layout to them. At Senkronix we first walk through the warehouse: shelf dimensions, forklift lanes, dispatch ramps, product weights, operator habits. Then we build the system around your warehouse. The result: operator training completes in half the time and the error rate drops by 70%+.

Advantages of a custom WMS

Shelf coding tailored to your warehouse layout — A-01-03-02 format follows your own logic
Picking order based on product weight, volume, fragility, odor and other custom parameters
Handheld UI shaped by your warehouse staff's habits — minimum taps, maximum speed
Batch, serial, expiry and FEFO/FIFO/LIFO rules selected during deployment
Two-way integration with your existing ERP (Logo, Mikro, Netsis, SAP) — no duplicate data entry
Optimized for high volume — thousands of transactions per second, 100+ concurrent operators

N° V -- Frequently Asked

Clear questions,
clear answers.

How does it integrate with our existing ERP?+

Two-way integration with common ERPs such as Logo, Mikro, Netsis, SAP and Dynamics is standard. Product records, stock movements, orders, waybills and invoices sync in real time. Your ERP writes to the WMS and the WMS writes back — the two systems share the same truth. Duplicate data entry is a thing of the past.

Which handheld hardware do you recommend?+

For low-to-mid budgets, Point Mobile PM85 or Honeywell EDA51; for enterprise budgets, Zebra TC26 or TC52. All are Android-based with IP65+ ruggedness, 8-12 hour battery life and support for 2D barcodes and DataMatrix. Requirements (temperature, drop, water) are set together before deployment.

How long does the project take?+

Small single-warehouse deployments 2-4 months, mid-size (1000+ SKUs) 4-6 months, enterprise multi-warehouse 6-12 months. The exact timeline is confirmed with scope at the end of Discovery. A working release is delivered every two weeks.

Who prints the shelf labels?+

During deployment we plan the shelf-labeling project together. Label design, material choice (PVC, metal, laminate), barcode format standard (Code 128, Data Matrix) and shelf coding logic are decided. On request, we also print and mount the labels.

Is offline operation supported?+

Yes. When the handheld loses connectivity it switches to offline mode, records actions locally and syncs automatically when the connection returns. Conflict resolution handles concurrent operations on the same item by rule. Even carrier-label printing works offline.

Does it work with WCS or conveyor automation?+

Yes. Conveyors, sorters and automated storage systems (ASRS, shuttle) in the WCS (Warehouse Control System) layer integrate via standard protocols: OPC-UA, TCP/IP, Modbus. In Industry 4.0 warehouses, the system also collects and analyzes sensor data.

How is it priced?+

We use project-based pricing — no annual subscription. Pricing is determined in Discovery based on warehouse size, SKU count, operator count, integration count and hardware scope. The software belongs to you. Compared to SaaS WMS subscriptions, the ownership model becomes advantageous within 2-3 years.
