Running the building: bin-level locations, directed putaway and picking, scanning, and the wave and packing logic that decides what a picker does next. Distinct from inventory management, which knows what you own — this knows where it is and who last touched it.
Stackmark rates Deacom ERP’s warehouse management as core: built and sold by the vendor as part of the suite.
The tier is read from the vendor’s own documentation, cited below, and says how the module is delivered — not how well it works for a given company. That is what the demonstration questions are for.
Is picking directed by the system to a handheld scanner, or is a location just a text field on the stock record?
Which picking strategies are supported — wave, batch, zone, cluster — and can the rules differ by order type?
How are lot, serial and expiry handled at bin level, including first-expired-first-out picking?
What carrier and label integration ships as standard, and where do packing and cartonisation happen?
Other profiled systems whose records rate warehouse management as core. Alphabetical; a listing is a documented fact, not a recommendation.
