Migrate from Pick 'n' Pack to WMS

Overview

Pick 'n' Pack uses technology that is no longer supported or compatible with the Cin7 Omni platform.

Cin7 Omni no longer provides, for Pick 'n' Pack:

technical support
security updates
bug fixes
other forms of assistance and support for the product

We recommend migrating to the Warehouse Management (WMS).

Warehouse Management (WMS) vs Pick 'n' Pack

We recommend upgrading from Pick 'n' Pack to Warehouse Management (WMS).
WMS provides:

A mobile-friendly application
Dynamic locations
Products in WMS can go to many different locations. Pick 'n' Pack uses static locations, which limits each product (per branch) to two locations max.
Inward Branch Transfers
Shipping labels and integrations (ShipStation, Starshipit, and Shiptheory)
Racking for products
Pick groups
Most Pick 'n' Pack functionality

Scanners compatible with WMS

We recommend the Zebra TC57, Honeywell CT40, and ScanSKU scanners, as they have been tested with the Warehouse Management (WMS).

Pick 'n' Pack features not available in WMS

There are some Pick 'n' Pack features that don't exist in WMS yet. Contact our support team if you are missing critical features from Pick 'n' Pack when using WMS.

WMS stocktake
Stocktaking in WMS is a planned development in our roadmap. Until then, we recommend that you use Stocktake master and either rack the products in WMS.
Partial shipping
WMS does not currently support partial shipping. You can either backorder the products in WMS or complete the partial shipping in Cin7 Omni.
EDI fulfillment
WMS does not currently support EDI fulfillment. If SSCC labels are needed, you can create these in Cin7 Omni.
