We've known this was coming for a few weeks, but now the cat is out of the bag: Cin7 Omni has received one of its most user-requested features - the ability to do stocktake in-app! 

Cin7 Omni's Warehouse Management System (WMS) module has come a long way since it replaced the legacy Pick and Pack module. There have been huge improvements in functionality, which meant businesses with warehouses had better operations and greater visibility over stock movement. 

But there was one, notable gap: stocktaking capability. 

And as of today, the wait is over.

Stocktake capability is in the Cin7 Omni WMS module, right now

Users now have the ability to conduct stock counts directly within the warehouse environment. The stocktake feature supports barcode scanning, and allows stocktakes to be completed across either the entire warehouse or specific locations. Anyone who's still looking to move away from the legacy Pick and Pack workflow - while maintaining accurate inventory control - now is your moment to shine. 

What's already in the box:

On top of the new stocktaking functionality, the Cin7 Omni WMS module already has plenty of vital warehouse management features, like:

  • Dynamic warehouse locations
  • Real-time tracking of stock movements
  • Improved visibility of product locations
  • Tote-based picking workflows
  • Enhanced warehouse efficiency and organisation

Stocktake really was the missing link, and now it's all there in one neat little package. 

Also, scanning

If you've ever manually counted endless bins of tiny boxes you may be right now breathing a sincere prayer of thanks: the new stocktake functionality includes barcode scanning. It's easier, faster, and it's a lot less prone to manual errors. It gives owners and workers a lot more confidence in their inventory data, which is a win for everyone. 

Is it time to move to the Cin7 Omni WMS?

 

 

Why is this so exciting? We get it. Stocktaking is about as much fun as... well, stocktaking. But it's critical to any business that holds physical inventory, and anything that takes some of the pain away is well worth the investment. For those of us that care about it, today is like Woodstock(take).

However, for a lot of Cin7 Omni customers, the lack of stocktake functionality in the WMS was what was keeping them from adopting the module. Accurate inventory counts are essential for efficient warehouse (and business) operations. Anything that makes stocktaking harder is to be avoided. Now, Cin7 Omni's WMS has something that makes it much easier.

At Beyond Expectations, we're thrilled to see it. The addition of stocktake functionality marks another positive step forward and can give users confidence that Cin7 continues to invest in the powerful Omni platform. We reckon it's time to celebrate - and, if you've been holding off, it might be time to make the jump.
