Microsoft Dynamics 365
Warehouse management system
Control receiving, put-away, picking and shipping in one system, with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management.
What a warehouse management system does
A warehouse management system (WMS) tracks every item from the moment it arrives to the moment it ships. It tells your team where stock is, what to pick next and what is running low, so orders go out faster with fewer mistakes.
Many businesses start with spreadsheets or a basic stock module, then hit limits as order volumes, locations and product ranges grow. A connected WMS links the warehouse to purchasing, sales and finance, so everyone works from the same live figures.
For most small and mid-sized businesses, Business Central covers bins, zones and picking. Larger or more complex operations use Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management for advanced warehousing.
Features to look for in a WMS
The capabilities that make the biggest difference day to day.

Shipping and carriers
Pack, label and dispatch orders from the same system.
Live stock levels
See stock on hand and on order as it changes.
Connected to finance
Stock movements post to the ledger without re-keying.
Try Business Central in an environment built around your business
Most trials drop you into a generic demo company that looks nothing like the way you actually work. Ours doesn't. We configure your free trial around your business and the use case you care about, so you and your team can test real scenarios with data and processes you recognise.
It starts with a short questionnaire about your industry, your current systems and what you want to prove out. Once that's back with us, your tailored trial can usually be made available within a few working days. Prefer a guided walkthrough first? A standard demo is still on the table - just tell us which you'd like.
