Why do you need a warehouse stock control system?
Stock control is essential for any warehouse as it ensures the storage and keeping of inventory is as efficient as possible. It is common practice to implement warehouse management software to aid businesses managing inventory as the software will track the movement of all the stock held.
A good warehouse management software will allow you to optimise the stock you hold and maximise the profitability of your warehouse space. Achieved by giving you the ability to view, manage, move and despatch stock with complete traceability and accuracy.
Benefits of inventory and warehouse management software
Stock visibility
Keep track of all stock and automatically or manually allocate stock check tasks.
Significantly reduce the risk of over or under stocking by always having an up-to-date view of the stock you hold, and use pre-set stock levels to receive notifications as levels.
Streamline goods-in
Real-time visibility of available stock without needing to wait for goods in paperwork to be returned enables efficient stock management.
Assign locations as stock is received for a quick and efficient goods-in process.
Record stock attributes
Record all stock arriving into your warehouse, along with their attributes including serial numbers, batch numbers, BBE and lot numbers.
Storing this data enables you to track goods, perform instant reconciliation and effective product recalls.
GS1 Compliance
Ensure traceability and compliance with GS1 requirements. Functionality within Access WMS enables you to:
- Read and handle composite GS1 spec barcodes (i.e. Barcodes that transmit multiple data segments in one scan)
- Print compliant labels
- Scan GTIN instead of product codes on RF and hold 4 barcodes per product
- Generate SSCC Numbers for pallets
- Keep different SSCC Company codes per stock account, have a generic company account if you are a 3PL

What our customers think of Access WMS
It was really the scale of our warehousing expansion that led us to take on the Access WMS. We knew our existing solution didn’t meet our requirements in terms of management, picking lists, picking locations, etc. – the system could not handle the number of locations and products. So we decided to get a warehouse solution in, and Access WMS suited our needs.
Access WMS has really improved the way we conduct ourselves as a business – it has helped us increase our revenue and gained us new customers. 3PL is a competitive industry and our customers rely on our 100% pick accuracy and rapid response times. So while our customers win with great service we win with productivity and efficiency gains; a true win-win.
As you can imagine working on Excel previously and then moving over to an effective WMS has made a huge difference. Access WMS is such an approachable system, it’s easy to use, easy to pick up and the way we’ve been able to service customers, especially online, has had a massive positive impact on the business.
