The Adaptus Warehouse Management System (WMS) provides the Sage Line 500 or Sage CS/3 user with functionality which will help control and utilise Warehouse space more efficiently. The main areas covered are Warehouse Putaway, Pick Face Replenishment, Picking and Despatching. The module can also be used in conjunction with Bar Codes and Scanners.

The Warehouse Putaway system assists the user by recommending where received goods should be stored in the Warehouse. This includes the ability to breakdown the Warehouse space into Zones, each containing specific Bins. The user can then define the rules which the system will use to determine where goods should be stored, including the Zones and Bin Types to be used, and the sequence in which the system should search for space.

The Pick Face Replenishment system is used where a user picks products for sale from dedicated Bins which need to be replenished from a bulk storage area. Again, the user can define the rules for Replenishment, including the stock levels which trigger replenishment. The system interfaces directly to the standard Sage Inventory, Purchase Order Processing and Sales Order Processing and systems. This does not involve any changes to the standard packages.

The Picking/Despatching System has a number of advantages over the standard system. The Picking List can change the way products are allocated to Sales Orders and can be linked to the Load Scheduling system. Despatch Confirmation offers a number of enhancements, which include the combination of both manual and automatic confirmation of order lines.
