The Receiving Challenges

Is Your Receiving Process Slowing Everything Down?

Receiving inventory one carton at a time takes longer than it should. Without warehouse barcode tracking, warehouse teams spend more time scanning, counting, and moving inventory than actually processing it.

Slower Receiving

Scanning every carton individually delays receiving and creates bottlenecks before inventory even reaches its storage location.

Counting Errors

Mixed pallets are harder to verify manually, increasing the chances of incorrect counts, and reducing warehouse traceability.

Lost-Time

Moving inventory between storage locations becomes slower then every case or carton has to be scanned separately instead of moving the entire pallet.

The Warehouse License Plate Tracking Process

One Barcode Ensuring Total Pallet Control

MetaWMS simplifies Warehouse License Plate Tracking by assigning a single License Plate Number (LPN) to an entire pallet. From receiving to storage and shipping, every movement is tracked with one barcode for faster handling and better warehouse traceability.

01

Receive & Create an LPN

Scan incoming inventory once and assign a single License Plate Number (LPN) to pallets, mixed SKUs, or cartons, eliminating repetitive item-by-item scanning.

02

Track & Route

Scan the LPN to move the entire pallet between receiving, storage, or warehouse bins, keeping inventory organized without rescanning individual items.

03

Auto Unpacked

When inventory is picked or unpacked, MetaWMS automatically updates the items linked to the LPN and enables you to maintain accurate inventory records and warehouse traceability.
