Quick answers about running a spare parts warehouse on Raptool.

More questions? See the full FAQ

Can one part have several barcodes?

Yes. A part can have several barcodes, so the supplier's code and your own code both find the same article.

How do pickers avoid mixing up similar parts?

Picture picking shows a photo of the part on the scanner, and the scan checks the part and the bin.

What happens when a batch is recalled?

Batch recall locks the batch everywhere it sits so it cannot be picked, and shows which customers already received it.

Can we sell parts online too?

Yes. Raptool WMS has connectors for Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Amazon and CDON, so web orders land in the same pick queue.
