Descartes OneView Warehouse Management System (WMS)

Powerful Proven Warehouse Management

Descartes OneView™ Warehouse Management System (WMS) is a proven solution that allows users to effectively coordinate warehousing operations from a robust, intuitive platform. Descartes OneView WMS is efficient and scalable; capable of handling small, single-warehouse processes or complex, multi-national warehousing centers. This advanced solution can serve as a stand-alone product or can be launched as an optional add-on from the Descartes OneView™ Forwarder Enterprise solution.

Integration Engine

One of the most powerful features of the Descartes OneView WMS is its integration engine. With the ability to seamlessly connect to disparate applications without strict adherence to Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), users can add-on warehousing technology to help enhance existing processes and drive-up revenue. Descartes OneView WMS solution helps businesses jumpstart implementation, achieve a higher level of supply chain management, dramatically improve productivity and provide a world-class level of customer service.

Descartes OneView WMS solution manages:

• Electronic purchase orders (850s)
• Advanced Shipment Notices (856s)
• Ship requests (945s)
• Receipt acknowledgements (940s)

Beyond data management, the application also helps to ensure data integrity. With the Descartes OneView WMS in place, the potential for user error is reduced since all data and processes are validated before shipment. Shipment information is automatically reconciled against load plans, and the application indicates if an item is missing, incorrect or designated for the wrong location.

Descartes OneView WMS features an intuitive three-tiered-approach to warehouse receipts that clearly defines the stage of the receipt.
