Light WMS for SAP Business One

Light WMS is a warehouse management system purpose-built for SAP Business One. It closes the gap between SAP B1’s native inventory management and the real-time execution a physical warehouse floor needs, giving distribution, manufacturing, and retail operations a single connected system for receiving, storage, picking, packing, shipping, and cycle counting.

Every transaction Light WMS captures on a mobile terminal or an office screen (a goods receipt, a pick, a transfer, a shipment) keeps your inventory current in real time, with no paper and no manual re-entry.

Why choose Light WMS for SAP Business One

Built specifically for SAP Business One warehouses

Light WMS is not a generic WMS bolted onto SAP through a connector. It is designed around SAP Business One, so receiving, picking, and shipping follow the documents your ERP already uses. SAP Business One stays your system of record; Light WMS owns floor execution.

Real-time inventory accuracy, no manual re-entry

Operators capture every movement as it happens on the device in front of them, so your inventory stays current in real time instead of waiting on paper notes and after-the-fact data entry. Fewer discrepancies, and a warehouse position you can trust when you plan.

One system for the office and the warehouse floor

Supervisors plan from full-featured desktop screens (Office modules) while operators scan and execute from handheld devices (Terminal modules), all sharing one data model. No sync lag, no duplicate systems to license or maintain, and an interface that adapts to any device.

Full audit trails and ISO-aligned compliance

Every transaction is logged with user, timestamp, quantities, and the SAP document reference. Managers can trace any stock discrepancy to its source without paper or floor interviews, and nothing breaks silently. Security and data-protection controls are aligned with ISO standards that meet European Union regulatory requirements and apply in any region.

key features

Receiving and Storage

PO Reception

Posts a Goods Receipt PO the moment items arrive against an open SAP Purchase Order, reducing the open PO quantity automatically.

Reception Without PO

Captures supplier shipments with no PO on file (samples, unplanned or emergency receipts) without slowing down the dock.

Free Reception Inventory

Adds stock directly for inventory gains, cycle-count corrections, or consignment stock, with no supplier reference required.

Inspection

A quality-control hub (by Sample, by Test, and Transfer) that releases stock to its target warehouse only once every sample has been approved.

Sales Return

Processes customer returns against the original Delivery Note, holding returned batches as "Not Accessible" until reviewed.

Transfer

Moves stock between warehouses or bins for production supply, distribution balancing, or pallet consolidation, batching multiple items into one execution.

Stock Reservation

Locks stock against a Sales Order, Production Order, or Transfer Request so picking always fulfills the intended demand, with aging alerts on stale reservations.

Picking, Packing, and Shipping

Picking for Production

Office builds and simulates picking waves, previewing shortages before the floor starts; Terminal executes them against Manufacturing Orders.

Picking for Shipping

Office groups Sales Orders into waves and Fulfillment Orders; Terminal pickers scan and confirm, advancing automatically to the next task.

Distribution Order

Plans and tracks multi-stop delivery routes, with Office monitoring stop-by-stop progress as drivers confirm each delivery.

Fast Shipping

An administrator-only bypass that ships an open Sales Order straight to Delivery for staged goods or volumes too small for a full wave.

Packing

Packs picked orders into containers and generates an SSCC per container, with WavePack mode for combining items from multiple orders.

Shipping

Groups packed orders into a shipment and is the only step that posts the SAP Delivery Note, backed by a 5-point pre-dispatch checklist.

Cycle Counting and Utilities

Cyclic Count

A three-stage workflow (Assignment, Terminal, Finance) where counting alone never touches SAP stock; only Finance approval posts the adjustment.

Reprint

Reissues shipping labels and documents on demand, with every reprint logged for audit purposes.

Stock Information

A read-only lookup across items, physical units, LPNs, and warehouse locations, including GS1 scan-to-search.

Platform-wide engines (under every module)

Complete Traceability Engine

Records every transaction with the operator's identification for full audit-trail visibility.

LPN Management System

Uniquely identifies pallets and containers throughout the warehouse, with a full audit log of every movement, split, and consolidation.

Advanced Area Management (Zoning)

Validates in real time that items are stored only in compatible locations (for example Refrigerated, Flammable, or Heavy Items areas).

GS1-128 Barcode Support

A single scan auto-extracts GTIN, lot number, and expiration date, auto-populating fields and reducing data-entry errors.

Multi-Language Engine

The interface adapts to each operator's configured language. English and Spanish are live today.

Advanced Unit of Measure and Decimal Precision

Operators work in any unit of measure with automatic conversion to inventory UoM, with decimal precision controlled per item or by the SAP global setting.
