Warehouse Overview
Overview
The Warehouse module integrates inventory inquiry, Self-owned Warehouse, 3PL Warehouse, Platform Warehouse (FBA/WFS/SBN), and procurement management. It serves as a central hub for multi-warehouse collaboration and inventory control, enabling precise multi-channel inventory visibility, efficient coordination, and intelligent anti-overselling protection—empowering you to enhance operational efficiency and cost management capabilities:
- Holistic Inventory Visibility: View real-time stock levels (available/in transit/reserved/cost) across all warehouse types (self-owned/overseas/platform) in one place. Supports multi-dimensional precise queries and one-click export, eliminating data silos.
- Smart Anti-Overselling: Seamless synchronization between stores and multiple warehouses automatically updates available quantities, effectively preventing overselling risks and ensuring order fulfillment.
- Precision Management of Self-Owned Warehouses: Features include shelf location tracking, batch operations (import/edit/export), and transaction tracing. Combined with manual receiving/shipping processes, it enables efficient cycle counts and accurate inventory maintenance.
- Seamless Integration with Multi-Platform Warehouse: Easily authorize and sync inventory from major platforms like Amazon FBA, Walmart WFS, and Newegg SBN. Unified product matching streamlines order fulfillment from Platform Warehouse.
- Closed-Loop Procurement Management: End-to-end control from supplier management to purchase order creation, tracking, receiving, and dispatching—optimizing supply chain efficiency.
