The everyday problems a warehouse system solves

Every growing warehouse runs into them. Certu WMS answers each one.

Where is it?

Someone walks the aisles to find a pallet.

The numbers don't match

The spreadsheet says 40 cases; the shelf has 32.

The wrong product shipped

The customer finds the mistake before you do.

Stock expired on the shelf

Old stock hides at the back until it can no longer be sold.

Only one person knows

When the most experienced person is away, work slows down.

Paper everywhere

Forms are filled in by hand, then typed in again later.

How it works

The journey of one pallet

Every move is scanned, so the screen always matches the floor, spot by spot. One pallet, six steps, from the truck that brings it to the truck that takes it away.

Step 1 · Receive

Check the truck against what you ordered

The system already has the delivery list before the truck arrives. Each pallet scanned off the truck ticks off its line.

  • Shortages caught at the door, not weeks later
  • Nothing extra comes in without a manager's OK
  • No paper checklist to type in later
Step 2 · Label

Every pallet gets its own barcode

Like a licence plate, the label makes each pallet unique. One scan shows product, quantity, batch and expiry date.

  • Pallets are never mixed up
  • Batch and expiry always known
  • Labels print from the office screen
Step 3 · Store

The system picks the best free spot

You set storage rules by product, product type or export goods. The system picks a free shelf that fits; the driver scans it to confirm.

  • Each kind of product goes to its own area
  • Full shelves are skipped automatically
  • New drivers work like experienced ones
Step 4 · Pick

The stock that expires first leaves first

For each product in an order, the system takes the pallets that expire first, or that arrived first. You set the rule per warehouse or per picking run.

  • Less stock expires on the shelf
  • Fresher products for your customers
  • Stock on hold is never picked
Step 5 · Load

The right pallet on the right truck

Every pallet is scanned at the truck. A pallet that belongs to another order is refused on the spot.

  • No wrong deliveries leave your dock
  • Stock updates the moment loading ends
  • Truck checks and seal numbers on record
Step 6 · Count

A little every day, without closing the warehouse

Each day the system asks someone to count a few spots. The counter does not see the expected number, so counts stay honest.

  • No need to close the warehouse to count
  • Small mistakes fixed before they grow
  • Big differences need a manager's approval
Quality and returns

Damaged or doubtful goods are set aside, never shipped

Stock that is damaged, returned or waiting for a quality check stays in the system, but no order can take it until a manager releases it.

01

Damaged goods never reach a customer

Stock set aside cannot be picked, loaded or shipped.

02

A clear decision on returns

Each return is checked and goes back to stock, to repair or to write-off.

03

Anyone on the floor can report a problem

Problems go straight to the office screen, where a manager can act on them.

Built for your people

Simple on the floor, clear in the office

No technical background needed. Each person sees only what they need to do the job.

Before and after

From paper and memory to one shared screen

  • Counting means closing the warehouse

With Certu WMS

  • Every pallet has a label and a known spot
  • Anyone can look it up in seconds
  • The right goods reach the right customer
  • A few spots are counted every day

Fits your operation

Starts simple, grows with you

01

Works on its own, or with what you run

No other system is needed to start. Shipments and truck plans come in from Certu LOaaS, and receipts, shipments and counts go out to your accounting or other systems through an open API.

02

Your warehouse, your rules

Settings per warehouse, and features switched on as you need them. Partner product codes are matched to yours, and every message is tracked until confirmed.

03

More warehouses as you grow

Add warehouses to the same system, and several stock owners can share one building. Already have a WMS? Keep it: Certu reads stock levels and pick status from it.
