From receiving dock to customer delivery—Ximple WMS provides every capability wholesale distributors need to run accurate, efficient, and scalable warehouse operations. Warehouse software for distributors automates receiving, put-away, picking, packing, and shipping in real time — and Ximple’s WMS is built inside the distribution ERP, on the same database as orders, purchasing, wholesale inventory management, and accounting. There is no ERP-WMS integration project, because there is nothing to integrate.
Every step from inbound receiving to outbound delivery—connected, scanned, and tracked in real time, the way wholesalers and distributors actually run a warehouse.
Receive
ASN processing, PO matching, scan receiving

Exception Management
Handle receiving discrepancies with workflows for overages, shortages, and damages.
Not a slideshow of features. Bring your own orders, bins, and branches, and we’ll run them through Ximple — your SKUs, your pick paths, your dock.
Every warehouse has one order everybody dreads — the pick that takes three trips, the mis-ship that keeps coming back, the transfer that vanishes for a week. Tell us yours and that’s where the demo starts.
The warehouse flow we’ll walk through
One scan-verified path from dock to delivery: ASN receiving, directed put-away, wave and batch picking, cartonization and labeling, carrier selection and proof of delivery — on the same database as orders, inventory, and accounting.
Start where your warehouse bleeds
Name the leak and sales prepares that exact demo — a mis-pick demo and a dock-to-stock demo are different meetings, and thirty minutes only fixes one thing at a time.
Bring One Order Your Warehouse Hates
The pick that takes three trips. The mis-ship that keeps coming back. The transfer that vanishes for a week. Bring that order — your item numbers, your bins, your branches — and we’ll run it through Ximple from scan receiving to proof of delivery. And if Ximple can’t fix it, you’ll know that too.

No obligation. Talk directly with a distribution ERP specialist.
A parts department is a wholesale distribution operation: thousands of SKUs, bins that must be right, counter orders that can’t wait, and stock spread across locations. Ximple’s WMS runs that side of a dealership the way it runs any distributor’s warehouse. Equipment, automotive, industrial, or agricultural: if the pain is the parts warehouse, the fit is the same.
Every part in a directed bin location — put-away rules keep fast movers close and the shelf matching the system.
Scan at the dock and at the bin; cycle counts run from a mobile device without shutting the counter down.
Bins refill automatically at reorder points, and lot, serial, and expiration tracking apply where parts require it.
Optimize warehouse space and picking efficiency with intelligent putaway rules and slotting strategies.
Directed Putaway
System-directed storage locations based on item attributes, velocity, and available capacity.
Slotting Optimization
Position fast-movers in prime pick locations to minimize travel time and maximize throughput.
Location Management
Multi-level location hierarchy with zones, aisles, racks, and bins for granular inventory control.
Storage Types
Support for various storage configurations including bulk, rack, bin, cold storage, and hazmat.
Replenishment
Automatic replenishment from reserve to forward pick locations based on min/max levels.
Space Utilization
Track and optimize warehouse space usage with capacity reporting and utilization metrics.
Multiple picking strategies to maximize throughput and accuracy for any order profile.
Wave Picking
Group orders into waves by route, carrier, priority, or ship date for efficient batch processing.
Batch Picking
Pick multiple orders simultaneously with post-pick sortation to reduce travel time.
Zone Picking
Assign pickers to zones with order consolidation at pack stations for high-volume operations.
Directed Picking
System-directed pick paths optimized for minimal travel with scan verification at each location.
Cluster Picking
Pick multiple orders onto a cart with compartments, sorting during pick for small-parcel efficiency.
Single Order Picking
Discrete picking for large orders, will-calls, or special handling requirements.
Complete outbound workflow from pack station to customer signature.
Packing & Cartonization
Pack verification with carton selection logic and packing slip/label generation.
Carrier Integration
Connect to carriers for rate shopping, label generation, and tracking number capture.
Route Management
Plan delivery routes, stage shipments by stop sequence, and manage driver assignments.
Proof of Delivery
Capture electronic signatures, photos, and delivery notes with real-time sync.
Returns Processing
RMA creation, return receiving, inspection, and restocking or disposal workflows.
Claims Management
Document and track delivery exceptions, damages, and shortages for dispute resolution.
Complete traceability from receipt to shipment with automatic FEFO/FIFO enforcement.
Lot Tracking
Track inventory by lot/batch number through all warehouse movements and transactions.
Serial Number Tracking
Individual unit tracking for serialized items with full transaction history.
Expiration Management
Track expiration dates with alerts for approaching expiry and automatic FEFO picking.
FEFO/FIFO Enforcement
Automatic picking sequence by expiration date (FEFO) or receipt date (FIFO).
Quality Holds
Place inventory on hold for quality issues, preventing picking until released.
Recall Management
Quickly identify affected inventory and customers for lot-based recalls.
Manage inventory movement across multiple warehouses, branches, and external locations — one network, not separate silos.
Transfer Orders
Create and manage stock transfers between warehouses with full shipment tracking.
Transfer Suggestions
System-generated transfer recommendations based on stock levels and demand patterns.
Multi-Warehouse Visibility
Real-time inventory visibility across all warehouses with consolidated reporting — one layer of a complete wholesale distribution ERP software platform.
Real-time visibility into warehouse performance with actionable metrics and alerts.
Real-Time Dashboards
Live operational dashboards showing receiving, shipping, and inventory status.
Operational KPIs
Track key metrics: lines/hour, order cycle time, accuracy, and dock-to-stock time.
Labor Performance
Individual and team productivity tracking with performance trends and benchmarking.

Ximple WMS receiving includes ASN processing, PO matching, barcode/RFID scanning, exception handling for overages/shortages/damages, quality inspection workflows, label printing, and cross-docking. All receipts update inventory in real-time.
Ximple WMS supports discrete picking, batch picking, wave picking, zone picking with consolidation, and cluster picking. Pick lists are optimized for minimal travel with scan verification at each step.
Cycle counting includes ABC velocity classification, variance-based triggers, scheduled count programs, blind counting, supervisor recount workflows, adjustment approvals, and accuracy reporting by location and counter.
Directed putaway guides workers to optimal storage locations based on slotting rules, item velocity, size/weight, and available capacity. The system suggests locations via mobile device, enforces put confirmation with scanning, and optimizes space utilization.
Ximple WMS tracks lot numbers, serial numbers, and expiration dates throughout the inventory lifecycle. FEFO and FIFO rules are automatically enforced during picking with full traceability from receipt to shipment.
Yes. Ximple includes route staging, load verification, delivery scheduling, electronic signature capture, photo documentation, exception recording, and claims management with real-time sync for customer service visibility.
Distributors use either a standalone WMS integrated with their business systems, or the warehouse module of a distribution ERP. Standalone WMS suits very high-volume, automation-heavy operations; for most wholesale distributors, an ERP-embedded WMS like Ximple’s covers receiving, put-away, picking, packing, and shipping on the same database as orders and accounting — with no integration to build or maintain.
It depends on volume and automation. A standalone WMS earns its cost in warehouses with heavy automation, robotics, or 3PL-scale throughput. For distributor warehouses running scanning, directed put-away, wave and batch picking, cycle counts, and multi-warehouse transfers, an ERP-embedded WMS does the same work without a second system, a second database, or an integration project.
Yes — for the parts side. A dealership’s parts department runs like any wholesale parts distributor: bins, barcode receiving, cycle counts, replenishment, and counter orders. Ximple manages that warehouse operation end to end.
