Shiper and warehouse management – improving logistics efficiency through integration
Discover Shiper – the system that supports the process of sending, controlling and delivering parcels to the customer. Thanks to integration with many courier companies, you can optimise the delivery process directly from your warehouse application (WMS, ERP) or sales platform (b2b, e-commerce).
How does integration with Shiper affect warehouse management?
The Shiper system supporting integration with courier companies is a tool that facilitates and streamlines the processes involved in handling shipments and exchanging information between the company and the courier service provider. In today’s dynamic business environment, effective warehouse management has become a key element of efficient logistics. With advances in technology, companies have started to use advanced warehouse management support systems such as Asiston WMS. Integrating this system with a platform that supports cooperation with courier companies is a significant step towards optimising logistics processes.
What is Asiston WMS?
Asiston WMS (Warehouse Management System) is a comprehensive IT tool designed for medium and large companies. Its main objective is to optimise and streamline processes related to the accumulation, storage and movement of products in the warehouse. It monitors product quantities, their location and the dates of receipt and release. The WMS effectively optimises and automates the management of warehouse logistics processes. The exchange of data with the ERP system in real time allows for a smooth flow of information. The WMS allows the location of each product in the warehouse to be monitored. This makes it much easier to manage inventory, find a specific product and reduce the time needed to prepare an order. The system also allows you to monitor and control all operations, from the receipt of goods, through storage, to the issuing of orders. By using functions such as optimising picking routes within the warehouse or order management, companies can increase the efficiency of their operations.
Integration
The introduction of integration between the WMS and the Shiper platform, which handles collaboration with courier companies, is a key element in improving company logistics. With this integration, order and delivery data is seamlessly transferred between the systems, eliminating the need for additional manual input. As a result, the entire process from goods preparation to dispatch becomes smoother and the risk of errors is minimised. The integration of these systems is an effective tool for monitoring the performance of the delivery process.
What are the benefits of integrating these systems?
The integration of the WMS with the Shiper platform supporting courier companies enables the automatic transfer of information about orders, which significantly reduces the time needed to process them. Automatic generation of shipment labels, downloading of delivery information, updating of statuses, transfer of data directly to courier systems and elimination of human errors associated with manual entry of information are just some of the advantages.
The versatility of the system allows access to all information in one place. Statistics are available on, among other things, the number of orders generated, packages waiting for the courier, handed over to the courier and delivered. This increases the transparency of the delivery process and improves the customer experience. The application’s intuitive UX, designed for the user, allows it to be implemented quickly and efficiently in the enterprise and to be operated smoothly by employees, reducing training time to a minimum.
It is possible to assign a specific location to parcel releases for a selected carrier, which significantly minimises delays and errors associated with the release of parcels to couriers. Increased automation of warehouse and logistics processes, thanks to integration with courier systems, leads to more efficient use of resources and a reduction in costs associated with order processing.
Connected printers give the packer the opportunity to print the final label after the order has been processed. The ability to avoid having to manually create documentation such as waybills reduces the time it takes to prepare shipments for dispatch. Faster and more accurate order fulfilment is associated with reduced customer waiting time for shipment. The integration also makes it possible to share order status information with customers, improving the level of logistical customer service. The Shiper system supports integration with the most popular courier companies, allowing flexibility in the choice of supplier depending on company or customer preferences.
The integration of a warehouse management system (WMS) with Shiper, which supports integration with courier companies, is a key element of efficient logistics. This solution optimises processes, reduces order handling times, reduces costs and increases customer satisfaction. Companies that invest in this integration gain a strategic advantage to compete effectively in the market.
