[Talk to an expert](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/sedapta/contact-us?hsLang=en) ## The numbers that matter, when the warehouse is really running smoothly A well-run warehouse runs smoothly: goods arrive, are stored, and are shipped out on time, and the systems are all in sync. sedApta's WMS is designed to make this standard of operation achievable, even in complex, multi-site environments or those with high product turnover. * * * ### Inventory is always up to date Real-time bin-level visibility across the entire inventory, including lots, serial numbers, and expiration dates. No discrepancies between the system and the physical world.  ### More productive operators Smart task management: every operator receives the right task, in the right place, at the right time. Fewer unnecessary trips, more throughput per shift.  ### Orders fulfilled with precision Guided picking with configurable priority rules (FEFO, FIFO, ABC). Error rates are eliminated where precision is critical.  ### Native integration with the supply chain The WMS communicates in real time with the ERP, APS, and TMS. Inventory data is directly fed into production planning and shipping.  ## What sedApta's WMS actually does - **Optimized receiving and put-away:** Every incoming shipment is validated, assigned to a storage location based on configurable rules (weight, turnover, product compatibility), and tracked immediately at the LPN level. - **Multi-attribute inventory management:** Batches, expiration dates, serial numbers, variable weights: the WMS handles the complexity of food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and manufactured goods without requiring custom configurations. - **Smart and multi-wave picking:** Support for wave picking, batch picking, zone picking, and waveless picking. Instructions are delivered in real time to RF terminals, mobile devices, or voice systems. - **Task management and labor tracking:** Each task is assigned to the nearest and most suitable operator. The system tracks time and performance by shift, by area, and by person, without the need for Excel spreadsheets. - **Shipping and document compliance:** From order confirmation to the generation of shipping documents, everything is automated. The WMS synchronizes with the TMS to optimize loads and meet delivery windows. - **Multi-site management and extended visibility:** A single interface for managing multiple warehouses, even across different locations. Inventory visibility is consolidated in real time, with customizable alerts for critical thresholds. ## WMS configured for your industry Food & Beverage Fashion & Luxury Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics Discreet manufacturing ### Food & Beverage FEFO management, batch tracking, expiration dates, and temperature.

It enables you to manage the flow of goods from receipt to shipment, with full visibility and control over inventory, resources, and processes.  ## Supply Chain Execution and End-to-End Integration Warehouse management is not a standalone component, but an integral part of **supply chain execution**, which includes order management, logistics, and transportation. The goal is **to increase responsiveness and efficiency** throughout the entire supply chain, ensuring on-time deliveries and reducing operating costs. Thanks to sedApta’s Extended Warehouse Management and WMS, the warehouse evolves from a mere cost center into **a strategic lever** of the supply chain, improving visibility, operational agility, and customer service quality. ## Related products ### [Transportation Management](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/sedapta/solutions/supply-chain-execution/transportation-management/?hsLang=en) [Learn more Transportation Management](https://www.elisaindustriq.com/sedapta/solutions/supply-chain-execution/transportation-management/?hsLang=en) ### [NextRoute: Real-Time Tracking](https://elisaindustriq.it/sedapta/soluzioni/supply-chain-execution/nextroute-real-time-tracking?hsLang=en&__hstc=6148716.b6814bdf71001e0d67e8fccb85c93002.1784599610986.1784599610986.1784599610986.1&__hssc=6148716.5.1784599610986&__hsfp=aa3290e3678b05d67f6416f8b27b1555) [Learn more NextRoute: Real-Time Tracking](https://elisaindustriq.it/sedapta/soluzioni/supply-chain-execution/nextroute-real-time-tracking?hsLang=en&__hstc=6148716.b6814bdf71001e0d67e8fccb85c93002.1784599610986.1784599610986.1784599610986.1&__hssc=6148716.5.1784599610986&__hsfp=aa3290e3678b05d67f6416f8b27b1555) ## The WMS within the O.S.A. suite The sedApta WMS is not a standalone system. It is part of the O.S.A. (Orchestrate, Sense, Act) suite, which integrates strategic supply chain planning, operational warehouse execution, and factory production control. This means that inventory data from the WMS is fed directly into the APS to recalculate production schedules, and that shipments are synchronized with the TMS for route optimization.
