NetSuite Warehouse Management System (WMS) optimizes day-to-day warehouse operations using industry-leading practices, such as mobile RF barcode scanning, defined strategies for putaway and picking, task management, return authorization receipts and cycle count plans. With hundreds or even thousands of SKUs to handle, often across multiple locations, warehouse management can quickly become a manual, chaotic and inefficient process if you’re relying on spreadsheets — or worse, pen and paper. NetSuite WMS eliminates manual processes, allowing you to minimize handling costs, run your warehouses more efficiently and consistently meet customer expectations. Performing warehouse processes on a mobile device improves inventory accuracy and reduces the time spent searching for and handling items. Users are guided to complete important tasks, from receiving and storing items to picking and shipping them, in the most efficient way possible. As an item is scanned, the WMS mobile application immediately updates or creates the proper transaction and associated inventory data in NetSuite, providing transaction and inventory transparency across the entire organization. Eliminate the need to sync information between systems. As a suite of connected applications, NetSuite seamlessly communicates with inventory management, order fulfillment and manufacturing systems, ensuring all teams are working on the same, real-time information. A mobile device ensures accurate capture of item, lot and serial numbers as goods are received. Track inventory in real time as items enter, move through and exit the warehouse. Ensure products have adequate space, and store fastest moving items near fulfillment areas. Mobile devices guide users to perform important tasks, from receiving and storing items to picking and shipping them, as efficiently as possible. Use efficient pick paths and opportunistic multi-order picking to rationalize fulfillment processes. Deliver orders quickly and minimize mis-picks and inaccurate fulfillment with data validation. NetSuite WMS streamlines warehouse operations using industry-leading best practices, including intelligent pick-and-pack processes, handheld barcode scanning, cycle counting and integration with shipping systems. NetSuite WMS offers robust functionality to manage inventory using bins. NetSuite also enables locations without bins, such as retail stores and small warehouses, to benefit from the efficiency of mobile picking without the overhead of managing bins. Create wave transactions and, on a mobile device, perform order processing and inventory management tasks, define stock locations and associate them with items and view stock locations assigned to goods being processed, from a mobile device. NetSuite Smart Count is an inventory cycle counting solution that enables organizations to improve the efficiency and accuracy of management by automating inventory counts without freezing transactions in the entire location. The inventory level used for the count is taken at the time the count starts for each individual item. Smart Count keeps track of transactions that happen for the items being counted, and if there is any activity during the count, NetSuite automatically alerts counters so they can react appropriately. Preferences allow administrators to choose what happens if the on-hand quantity changes for an item during the count process. See the quantities and status of items in real-time, by bin location, as goods enter, move within and exit the warehouse. Receive orders using a mobile device and input item characteristics at time of receipt. Optimize the warehouse layout by storing fast-moving products near fulfillment centers and grouping like items together. Use efficiently designed mobile device workflows to walk users through a step-by-step process for picking each order. Use wave release and multi-order picking to group like orders. Pick items for multiple orders in a single pass of the warehouse. NetSuite has packaged the experience gained from tens of thousands of worldwide deployments over two decades into a set of leading practices. These practices pave a clear path to success and are proven to deliver rapid business value and get you live on NetSuite in a predictable timeframe. Intelligent, stepped implementations begin with sales and span the entire customer lifecycle, so there’s continuity from sales to services to support. Companies of every size, from pre-revenue startups to fast-growing businesses, have made the move to NetSuite. Looking for a better way to run your business but wondering about the cost? Users subscribe to NetSuite for an annual license fee. Your license is made up of three main components: core platform, optional modules and the number of users. There is also a one-time implementation fee for initial setup. As your business grows, you can easily activate new modules and add users — that’s the beauty of cloud software.
