    A warehouse management system (WMS) supports warehouse operations through features like managing complex warehouse structures, optimizing material flows, and processing goods receipt, issue, and transfer. A WMS can track inventory in individual storage locations unlike inventory management systems, and locate materials randomly within multiple storage types, sections, and bins. Key benefits of a WMS include optimization of capacity and materials flow, monitoring of stock levels, tracking of occupied and empty space, and support for processes like receipt, consolidation, binning, picking, packing, and dispatch.

    The key takeaways are that a warehouse management system can manage stock quantities in individual storage locations, optimize materials flow, and track materials movement and status changes.

    The main differences are that an inventory management system can only show total stock quantities, while a warehouse management system can manage stock levels in each storage location and track items' exact locations even in complex storage facilities.

    Some of the complexities involved in managing a complex warehouse are the different areas for goods receipt, unit consolidation, storage, bulk storage, outside storage, picking/packing and goods issue. The warehouse may also have high rack storage and multiple storage types.
