Running an ecommerce business today means juggling multiple fulfillment methods, warehouses, and processes. Luminous Warehouse Management System (WMS) simplifies these operations and ensures that everything runs smoothly. Here's a breakdown of the eight key workflows of Luminous’ WMS to help you decide if it's the right fit for your business.
Luminous WMS is designed to support modern e-commerce operations, including multi-warehouse setups. Whether you're using Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), third-party logistics (3PL), or handling in-house fulfillment, Luminous brings all of these under one system, streamlining your warehouse processes and giving you full control over your inventory.
Setting up your warehouse infrastructure can be daunting, but Luminous makes it simple. With the flexibility to structure warehouse groups, individual warehouses, and bins, you can ensure your orders are routed to the right places. The system is designed to get every detail right from the start, so your operations run efficiently from day one.
If you're already using an Order Management System (OMS) like ShipStation, ShippingEasy, or PirateShip, Luminous won’t force you to change what’s already working. Instead, it integrates with your existing OMS, enhancing its capabilities while allowing you to keep using the tools you love.
Luminous offers a highly customizable pick, pack, and ship process. You can filter sales orders to generate pick lists, run them through packaging flows, and verify them with quality control before shipping. This flexible system allows you to tailor the process to your specific operational needs.
For businesses that prefer a more hands-off approach, Luminous offers auto depletion. This feature automatically deducts inventory from specific bins or lots using FIFO (First In, First Out) or LIFO (Last In, First Out) logic. It’s perfect for brands that want to streamline operations without manual intervention.
Luminous gives you the flexibility to choose how complex or simple your warehouse management processes are. You can go with the simplest method, like auto depletion, or adopt more advanced workflows like custom pick-and-pack processes. It’s all about what works best for your warehouse without unnecessary friction.
Luminous simplifies routine warehouse tasks like cycle counts and transfer orders through its warehouse mobile app. By scanning bins, you can track inventory accuracy over time, while transfer orders can be processed through simple scans or more complex flows for inbound shipments, including those from Amazon.
For brands that require traceability, Luminous offers easy-to-toggle lot tracking. You can assign lot numbers at various transaction points, such as during assembly or work orders, or when purchasing goods. This ensures full traceability from start to finish, making it simple to track products throughout their lifecycle.
