Don’t believe us? Following are the typical, real-world numbers from FDM4 WMS clients:
Order Management, Perfected
FDM4’s Order Manager transforms the way your warehouse handles fulfillment, combining intelligent built-in logic with powerful wave management to make your order operations faster, smarter, and more efficient than ever. Management gains a true 360-degree view of all work available in the ERP system, with the flexibility to release orders in waves and allow one or more workers to pick the same wave simultaneously dramatically increasing throughput without sacrificing accuracy.Â
A pre-release review and fill rate analysis ensures inventory availability is confirmed before every wave is released, while urgent replenishments eliminate costly mispicks and fulfillment delays before they happen. Built-in order prioritization automatically handles rush orders, VIP customers, and carrier cutoff deadlines without manual intervention. Seamless ERP integration delivers real-time order tracking and status updates, providing complete end-to-end visibility from order placement to shipment.
Inventory Management that Works for You
FDM4 Inventory Management delivers near 100% inventory accuracy through real-time tracking across every location in your facility, giving managers and order takers full visibility into stock levels, item locations, and availability. Dynamic slotting, consolidation, and intelligent space utilization streamline operations for optimal workflow, lower carrying costs, and greater productivity.
Flexible stock rotation (FIFO, FEFO, LIFO, LEFO) keeps inventory managed in the right sequence, while lot control and serial number tracking provide the traceability regulated and high-value industries require. Built-in kitting and assembly support value-added services within your warehouse workflow, eliminating manual workarounds and keeping fulfillment moving at full speed.
Total Inventory Control, From Dock to Dock
FDM4 Inventory Control delivers near-100% accuracy by combining barcode data capture with continuous process verification and real-time data integrity checks from receiving to shipping. Ongoing visibility into item, location, zone, and status gives managers an up-to-the-minute view of inventory across every facility. Triggered and on-demand replenishment keeps pick faces stocked, while ABC and bin hit analysis optimize slotting and reduce travel time.
Item consolidation eliminates wasted space and keeps operations audit-ready. Scheduled and on-demand cycle counting, plus full physical inventory capabilities, maintain accuracy without freezing items or disrupting fulfillment. The result: a leaner, faster warehouse with dependable inventory data.
Outbound Operations, Streamlined
FDM4 WMS Outbound gives warehouse managers full control over outbound traffic — reducing order cycle times, increasing throughput, and catching errors before inventory is unnecessarily moved. A rules-based engine intelligently manages picking, packing, and shipping workflows for accurate, efficient fulfillment. Built-in verification at each stage minimizes errors before goods leave the dock.
Wave and batch picking group orders to optimize pick paths and reduce labor costs, while real-time prioritization ensures rush orders, VIP customers, and carrier cutoffs are always met. Electronic shipping notifications keep partners informed, and multi-carrier support with automated label generation ensures every shipment ships with the right documentation, on time.
Smarter Receiving Starts Here
FDM4 WMS Inbound delivers continuous inventory visibility with real-time data validation, empowering teams to improve inventory lifecycle planning, space utilization, and productivity. Advance ship notice (ASN) and pre-receipt visibility prepare your team before goods arrive. Planned and unplanned receiving via barcode scanning captures every inbound shipment accurately, while directed put-away reduces touches, minimizes errors, and accelerates dock-to-stock times.
Cross-docking lets high-priority goods flow directly to outbound orders, and seamless RMA and returns processing keeps reverse logistics just as organized as inbound flow. From the first ASN to final put-away confirmation, every step is optimized, accurate, and fully under control.
Labor Management - Workforce, Optimized
FDM4 Labor Management gives warehouse operators the tools to effectively measure, manage, and maximize their most valuable resource — their people. By providing complete visibility across warehouses, departments, shifts, tasks, and individual employees, managers can identify inefficiencies, balance workloads, and drive continuous improvement across every corner of the operation.
Comprehensive transaction logging ensures every activity is captured and traceable, while robust productivity reporting delivers the actionable insights needed to set performance benchmarks, reward top performers, and make informed staffing decisions. The result is a more engaged workforce, a more efficient warehouse, and a stronger bottom line.
Smart Kitting with Inventory Control
Take the complexity out of kit assembly with our fully integrated kitting workflow built right into the WMS. From item configuration to kit release, every step is tracked, validated, and inventory-accurate in real time. Set up kit components once, and the system guides your team through pick, build, and release via RF gun ensuring the right parts, in the right quantities, every time.
Dedicated kit zones, cart-based staging, and automated inventory adjustments mean component stock drops and finished kit inventory rises the moment a build completes — no manual reconciliation required. Pair that with reporting tools like Kit Availability and Item Availability, and your team always knows what can be built today and what needs sourcing. The result: an accurate, auditable kit-building process that keeps inventory
Business Rules - Built Around Your Business
No two warehouses operate the same way, and FDM4 WMS is built with that reality in mind. Through configurable system tables and Business Rules, FDM4 adapts to your unique operations without custom programming. Configuration is managed at the host or warehouse level and established during implementation based on your organization’s needs, delivering top-down process tuning grounded in warehouse best practices. Using an intuitive web browser interface, setup is fast and flexible, with several system tables loaded automatically during implementation.
Once live, FDM4’s Decision Support System uses your Business Rules to guide associates through daily tasks, enforcing procedures on the floor while preserving flexibility. Whether you operate one facility or many, FDM4 supports a single database across multiple locations — each with distinct Business Rules — giving enterprise-wide consistency with site-level precision.
Leading Edge Warehouse Technology
FDM4’s WMS is built for the modern warehouse floor — flexible enough to meet your team where they work, powerful enough to grow with your operation. Whether staff prefer handheld RF scanners with touch screen, rugged tablets, enterprise mobile devices, or hands-free wearable scanners, FDM4 supports every interaction style, keeping workers moving faster and more accurately every shift.
As your operation evolves, FDM4’s voice-ready and robotics-capable architecture lets you integrate voice automation and autonomous mobile robots without ripping out what’s already working. Advanced automation reduces manual labor and speeds processes from receiving to shipping. From first scan to final shipment, FDM4 gives you the hardware flexibility and future-proof foundation for a smarter, faster warehouse.
