A warehouse industry is a commercial building for storage of goods. Warehouses are used by manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, transport businesses, customs, etc. They are usually large plain buildings in industrial areas of cities, towns and villages. They usually have loading docks to load and unload goods from trucks. Sometimes warehouses are designed for the loading and unloading of goods directly from railways, airports, or seaports. They often have cranes and forklifts for moving goods, which are usually placed on ISO standard pallets loaded into pallet racks. Stored goods can include any raw materials, packing materials, spare parts, components, or finished goods associated with agriculture, manufacturing and production.

Warehouse management systems (WMS)

A Warehouse Management System (WMS) is mainly used to manage the movement and storage of inventory within a warehouse. It tracks the movement of each inventory item such as the item being received, put away, picked, packed and shipped. The key differentiator between ERP and WMS is that WMS systems provide intelligence on optimizing inventory based on real-time information. Reports can be generated to indicate the optimal location for each item to be placed based on historical data and trends, and the system helps dictate where product should live within a warehouse based on bin and shelf utilization
