The Basics

What Is A Warehouse Management System?

A warehouse management system (WMS) runs the physical operation inside a warehouse — receiving stock, deciding where it goes, directing picking and packing, and getting orders despatched.
It is the difference between a system that records what you own and one that runs the work. An inventory record says you hold 400 units. A WMS knows 320 are in bay C4, 60 are still in goods-in, and directs a picker to the right one.

Modern warehouse management software is cloud-based and browser-driven, which means it runs on the scanners and tablets you already own rather than requiring a device programme.

What It Does

Key Features Of A Warehouse Management System

A WMS should cover the whole journey a product takes through your building, not just the bit that touches stock records. These are the nine things Canary7 handles as standard.
Goods In & Putaway
Book stock in against the PO, capture batch, serial and expiry, and direct it to the right location.
Real-Time Inventory
One stock figure across every location, site and client, updated on every scan rather than overnight.
Picking Strategies
Single, batch, cluster and zone picking, with routes that cut walking distance on every wave.
Packing & Verification
Scan-to-verify before anything is sealed, so the wrong item cannot leave the building.
Despatch & Carriers
Rate shopping, label generation and tracking across your carrier accounts from one screen.
Multi-Site & Multi-Client
Run several warehouses and several clients from one system, with data kept apart.

Runs In A Browser, On Whatever You Already Own

No app to deploy, no device management, no refresh cycle to budget for. Canary7 renders to any screen size, so the same system works on a scanner, a tablet at the packing bench and a laptop in the office.

Accuracy

One Stock Figure, Not Three Opinions

Every movement is scanned and written to the same record, then posted back to your ERP. Cycle counts run zone by zone in the background instead of shutting the site for a weekend.

FAQ

Warehouse Management System Questions

What is a warehouse management system?
Down arrow icon

A WMS runs the physical operation inside a warehouse — receiving stock, deciding where it goes, directing picking and packing, and despatching it. It is different from an inventory system, which records what you own, and from an ERP, which runs the business around it.

What are the key features of a warehouse management system?
Down arrow icon

Goods in and putaway, real-time inventory by location, picking strategies, packing verification, despatch and carrier management, returns and adjustments, labour visibility, reporting, and multi-site or multi-client separation. Canary7 covers all nine as standard.

Is a WMS different from the warehouse module in our ERP?
Down arrow icon

Yes. An ERP warehouse module records stock at a location and assumes somebody tells it what happened. A WMS runs the work itself — waves, scanners, packing checks, carrier selection — and reports the results back.

What hardware do we need?
Down arrow icon

Canary7 is browser-based and renders to any screen size, so it runs on the scanners, tablets and laptops you already have. There is no native app to deploy or manage.

Can it handle more than one warehouse?
Down arrow icon

Yes, and more than one client. Stock, users, reporting and permissions are separated per site and per client, which is how our 3PL customers run.

How long does implementation take?
Down arrow icon

Most sites are live in weeks rather than quarters. We will give you a realistic timeline after discovery rather than a number on a web page.
