What is Warehouse Management?
- Warehouse Management
- Warehouse Management involves organising the physical storage, movement, and handling of goods within a warehouse to maximise space utilisation, picking efficiency, and accuracy.
Warehouse Management Functions
Key warehouse functions: Receiving (inspection, putaway), Storage (location assignment, bin management), Picking (order fulfilment), Packing (preparing shipment), Shipping (dispatch with documentation), and Returns (reverse logistics).
