4 Major Warehouse Problems Solved with New Logiks WMS Update

While most warehouse operations follow similar patterns, every warehouse has its own unique touch. It can be a specific workflow, data requirement, and generally priorities that are different from others. No two businesses operate exactly the same and it is important that systems they use, like a Warehouse Management System (WMS), reflect that. Otherwise, workers spend extra time and energy working around rigid systems that don’t quite match their needs.

Bottom Line: slower operations, more errors, and unnecessary complexity.

With the latest Logiks WMS update, we’re solving this problem with Field Configuration, a new feature that lets businesses fully customize the WMS interface to fit their exact needs.

Here’s how this update solves four major problems found in traditional WMS solutions:

1. UI That Doesn’t Fit Your Business Workflows

The Problem

Most solutions have fixed user interfaces and businesses have to adjust their workflows to fit the system instead of the other way around. Irrelevant fields clutter screens, while essential information may be buried in menus, which takes unnecessary time.

How Logiks WMS Solves It

With Field Configuration, businesses can customize the UI by adding, removing, and rearranging fields. This ensures that users sees only the information relevant to their job, improving usability and process efficiency.

• Only show the fields that matter
• Remove clutter for a cleaner, easier-to-use interface
• Adapt Logiks WMS to fit your exact processes

2. Slower Processes Due to Unnecessary Data

The Problem

In a typical WMS, users may have to scroll through multiple screens or input unnecessary data before completing a task. Obviously, This slows down processes like scanning, picking, inventory tracking etc., creating bottlenecks in operations.

How Logiks WMS Solves It

Users can remove unnecessary fields, allowing workers to focus only on relevant data. This makes barcode scanning, order processing, and inventory tracking faster and more efficient.

• Faster scanning and data entry
• Reduced processing time by up to 40%

3. Limited Adaptability Across Warehouse Operations

The Problem

Different warehouse operations require different information. Picking process for example may need bin locations, while goods receipt might need batch details. A rigid system forces users to use the same or predefined UI for all workflows, making processes inefficient.

How Logiks WMS Solves It

Field Configuration allows businesses to create custom UI layouts for each warehouse module. Whether it’s picking, stock transfers, goods receipt, or inventory counting, users see only the fields they need for that specific workflow.

• Create different UIs for different warehouse operations
• Improve efficiency across all warehouse functions

4. Inconsistent Data Entries & User Errors

The Problem

Standard WMS interfaces lack control over which fields are editable or mandatory, leading to inconsistent data entry and errors.

How Logiks WMS Solves It

With Field Configuration, businesses can set fields as editable or read-only based on their needs. This helps in avoiding errors that could lead to data inconsistencies.

• Allow users to edit only what they need to
• Ensure data integrity across all warehouse processes
