Digit Warehouse Management
Warehouse operations including receiving, putaway, picking, packing, shipping, and warehouse layout optimisation.
Warehouse Management is a core strength for Digit — a primary capability included in standard deployments. The product is best suited to smb and mid-market manufacturers and distributors that need real-time mrp, inventory, and shop-floor traceability without enterprise cost.
Key capabilities
Receiving and putaway optimisation
Directed receiving with license plate tracking and system-suggested putaway locations based on item velocity, size, and storage requirements. Minimises travel time and maximises warehouse space utilisation.
Pick, pack, and ship workflows
Guided picking by RF scanner or mobile with path-optimised pick sequences, packing station verification, and ship-confirm integration. Reduces picking errors to near-zero while increasing lines per hour.
Warehouse layout and bin management
Configurable zone, aisle, rack, and bin structures with pick-face replenishment rules and capacity constraints. Enables slotting optimisation to place fast-moving items in ergonomic, accessible locations.
Wave and batch picking
Groups orders into waves by carrier cutoff, priority, or zone for efficient batch picking. Consolidates picks across multiple orders, then sorts at pack stations — significantly reducing picker travel distance.
Cross-docking and direct shipment
Routes inbound goods directly to outbound shipping without warehouse storage when matching demand exists. Reduces handling costs and throughput time for high-velocity or pre-allocated inventory.
RF/barcode scanner integration
Real-time wireless scanner support for all warehouse operations — receiving, putaway, picking, packing, cycle counting, and transfers. Workers follow system-directed steps on handheld devices for error-free execution.
Shipping carrier integration (UPS, FedEx, etc.)
Rate shopping across carriers, automated label printing, tracking number capture, and shipment manifest generation. Selects the optimal carrier and service level based on cost, transit time, and delivery requirements.
Warehouse performance analytics
KPI dashboards tracking picks per hour, order accuracy, dock-to-stock time, warehouse utilisation, and labour productivity. Identifies bottlenecks and provides data for continuous improvement initiatives.

Warehouse Management FAQ
What is a WMS in ERP?
A Warehouse Management System (WMS) within ERP manages the physical operations of a warehouse — receiving goods, storing them efficiently, picking orders accurately, and shipping them out. It differs from inventory management which focuses on stock levels.
Do I need a standalone WMS or is ERP WMS enough?
For most mid-market companies, ERP-embedded WMS is sufficient. High-volume distribution centres (100,000+ picks/day) with complex automation may need dedicated WMS solutions like Manhattan Associates or Blue Yonder.
Which ERP has the best warehouse management?
Oracle (NetSuite WMS), SAP (Extended Warehouse Management), and Infor M3 offer strong WMS. For mid-market, Acumatica and Epicor Kinetic provide capable WMS at lower cost.
How does ERP WMS integrate with barcode scanners?
ERP WMS integrates with RF (radio frequency) barcode scanners and mobile devices to guide warehouse workers through receiving, putaway, picking, and shipping — reducing errors and increasing speed.
What picking strategies does ERP WMS support?
Most ERP WMS modules support discrete picking (one order at a time), batch picking (multiple orders simultaneously), wave picking (grouped by carrier or schedule), and zone picking (workers assigned to warehouse zones).
