General Overview of TMS and WMS Integration

 

  1. Transport Management System (TMS) is designed to manage the planning, execution, and optimization of the physical movements of goods. It includes route planning, carrier selection and scheduling. It helps in tracking shipments, managing transportation costs, and ensuring timely delivery.

  2. Warehouse Management System (WMS) focuses on managing warehouse operations efficiently. It includes inventory management, order picking, packing, shipping, and receiving. It helps in optimizing warehouse space, improving order accuracy, and increasing productivity.

  3. Integration of TMS and WMS (Data Synchronization and Process Coordination)

Order Processing: Orders processed in WMS are automatically communicated to TMS for transportation planning.

Shipment Tracking: TMS tracks shipments and updates WMS with delivery status, enabling efficient warehouse operations.

Improved Efficiency: Seamless data flow between TMS and WMS reduces manual data entry and errors.
