Look at the Entire Timeline, or Zoom in When You Need To
1The History Section of our Warehouse Management System (WMS) provides you with the ability to see transactions that have occurred within the system. Running a warehouse involves intricate work across interwoven teams. As such, we designed our Historical Data feature so you can see the history of all transactions at once or pick and choose specific sections to look at in detail.
What Does Historical Data Look Like in Our WMS?
1Integrating our Grids design, we’ve made it easier than ever to process and analyze inventory or transaction history. You can look at historical data in more detail by filtering your data through Group View. You or your designated employee could also search for transactions from a specific time period or a particular inventory item transaction in general.
