More sites, more orders,one inventory record.
WMSHero runs receiving, put-away, picking, transfers and shipping across your warehouses and third-party logistics (3PL) clients in one system. Each step is confirmed by scan, and stock moving between sites stays visible so it isn't promised twice.
As order volume grows, small errors create more rework.
A picking error can mean a return, a reshipment and sometimes a customer chargeback. At the same error rate, more orders mean more of them. Distribution and 3PL teams need throughput and accuracy at each site at once, and scan verification helps crews check items, lots and quantities before dispatch.
Stock at the wrong site
Dallas is out of an item while Phoenix has more than it needs. If nobody sees both numbers in time, you may expedite a reorder while the stock you need sits in another warehouse.
Picking errors that reach the customer
A wrong SKU, wrong lot or short quantity can lead to a chargeback, return freight and a lower score on the customer's vendor scorecard.
Pallets waiting on the dock
When put-away can't keep pace with inbound, pallets wait at the dock. The stock isn't available to pick, dock doors stay occupied and crews spend time looking for space.

See on-hand, in-transit and available-to-promise quantities for a SKU across your warehouses in one view. Available-to-promise is the stock not yet committed to open orders. When one site runs low and another has extra, you can plan a transfer instead of an expedited reorder.
- On-hand by warehouse, location and lot across your sites
- In-transit stock shown from the time a transfer is scanned out
- Available-to-promise that accounts for open orders
- Separate stock, locations and roles for each 3PL client
Track transfers between sites from scan-out to scan-in.
A transfer has two halves: stock leaves one warehouse and arrives at another. If the two are recorded separately, the units in between are hard to see and easy to promise twice.
WMSHero tracks the transfer from start to finish. When it's scanned out, the stock moves to in transit; when it's scanned in, it's added to the receiving site. Available-to-promise at each site accounts for stock in transit.
- In-transit stock stays on the books and is visible across your sites
- Scan-out and scan-in are matched to the same transfer automatically
- Differences between shipped and received quantities are flagged at receiving
How an order moves from dock to dispatch.
From an inbound pallet to a dispatched order. Crews confirm each step by scan on Android handhelds, and the warehouse record updates as each scan is saved.
Details for 3PL and multi-site teams.
- 3PL client separation. Each client's stock, locations and user roles are kept separate, and client users see only their own inventory.
- Audit log. Each receipt, pick, transfer and shipment is recorded with the user, device, site and time, so discrepancies can be traced. More on Audit Log →
- ERP and accounting connections. WMSHero connects to NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Acumatica and Sage. SAP is delivered as a scoped project with your SAP team. InventoryHero connects to Epicor Prophet 21. QuickBooks Online, Xero, a REST API and webhooks are also available.
