WMS Features That Improve Order Accuracy
BlogAccuracy is the currency of a warehouse. Whether you’re managing a high-volume distribution center or a multi-client 3PL, even a small mistake can ripple through your entire supply chain. Wrong shipments damage customer trust. Inventory miscounts lead to stockouts or overstocking. And all of it eats into profitability. That’s why TouchPath built TouchWMS with a clear goal: to help companies like yours run tighter, smarter warehouses. As part of our broader supply chain management platform, TouchWMS is built to reduce errors at every step. If you’re looking for the best warehouse management system to support inventory accuracy and better outcomes, here’s how we help make that happen.
Barcode and RFID Scanning at Every Step
Manual entry introduces risk. TouchWMS uses real-time barcode and RFID tracking from receiving to picking to shipping. This reduces data entry errors and ensures accurate product identification. Every scan is a checkpoint that improves confidence in inventory records and shipping accuracy.
Location-Level Inventory Tracking
TouchWMS supports bin-level inventory management, so workers aren’t guessing where to find items. The system records every item’s exact location, cutting down on mispicks and lost product. That granularity also speeds up cycle counting and slotting, which helps reduce miscounts.
Automated Pick Lists
The best warehouse inventory management system sends pickers to the right sones and verifies that they’re pulling the right item. Our system generates optimized pick paths and requires barcode validation, so picking errors are caught before the product hits the pack line.
Rules-Based Order Allocation
TouchWMS allocates stock based on real-time availability, FIFO, lot numbers, expiration dates, and other business rules. This minimizes human decision-making in fast-moving environments and reduces the chances of shipping the wrong product or violating customer-specific requirements.
From order confirmation to packing to final shipment, TouchWMS records who did what and when. That audit trail helps resolve disputes quickly, reduce return rates, and create accountability across the warehouse team.
