WMS+ Admin Panel Review

WMS+ Admin Panel Review

The WMS+ Admin Panel controls how the system behaves across your warehouses. It allows administrators to configure licenses, user roles, processes, label printing, hardware and core workflows. The Admin Panel defines how WMS+ responds to everyday transactions, user exceptions and operational activity.

The Admin Panel is divided into four tabs:

General Overview

It provides quick access to version details and platform information and is useful for diagnostics and identifying your current environment.

Common Configuration

The central hub for system setup. It’s split into four sections:

  • Users Management

    • Admin Users Management: Manage WMS+ users, assign roles and reset passwords.

    • License Management: View and assign available licenses by user.


  • Application Customization

    • Process Settings: Define system behavior for each WMS+ process (linked to full sub-page).

    • Image Settings: Upload branding logos for display on the WMS+ login screen.

    • Inventory Lookup Configuration: Enable or disable the Inventory Lookup feature and control if prices are displayed.


  • Hardware Configuration

    • Printers Determination: Assign printers by user, process or label type.

    • Scales Determination: Link digital scales for integrated weighing.


  • Printing Configuration

    • Reports Configuration: Configure which SAP Business One Crystal Reports are used for document output.

Modules

Configure how WMS+ behaves during key warehouse tasks.

Admin Panel Modules.png

Counting Configuration

The Counting Configuration module defines how WMS+ handles counting tasks and integrates results into SAP Business One.

Setting

Description

System Behavior

Post Count to SAP

Determines whether counted results are posted directly to SAP Business One.

If enabled, all operations post to the SAP Inventory Counting document. If disabled, results are stored in the SES_SEM_Counting table only.

Allow to Add Items

Allows counters to record items not included on the base SAP Inventory Counting document.

Useful for identifying stock that was missed in the original count.

Serial/Batch Behavior

Defines how WMS+ enforces serial or batch entry during counting.

Mandatory: Serial/batch must be entered for each managed item.

Optional: Entry is shown but not required.

Not Requested: Serial/batch entry is not displayed.

Use Weight/Quantity from GS1 Barcode

When enabled, WMS+ automatically applies weight and quantity values parsed from GS1 barcodes during counting. If disabled, these values must be entered manually even if the barcode includes them.

If enabled, weight and quantity values are taken from the barcode where available. Disable if manual entry of weight and quantity is required.

Auto-save GS1 Barcode Counting Entry

Controls whether scanned GS1 barcodes automatically save as a count entry.

If enabled, each scan posts immediately without manual confirmation.

Auto-Save Delay Time (Milliseconds)

Defines the wait time before an auto-saved GS1 barcode entry is confirmed.

Adjust to match device responsiveness or scanning workflow needs.


Shipping Configuration

The Shipping Configuration module defines how WMS+ processes outbound shipments, including pallet handling, manual order closing and behavior when pick lists are incomplete.

Setting

Description

System Behavior

Enable Pallet Shipping

Consolidates picked pallets (from Pick Lists or Sales Orders) so they can be shipped directly on the document. Item lines are hidden, and pallets are shown when available

If enabled, shipments display only pallets created during picking. If disabled, shipments display item lines.

Enable Manual Order Closing

Allows users to manually close order documents when completing them, even if not all items or quantities have been picked or shipped.

If enabled, users can manually close an order even if it has only been partially picked. If disabled, orders remain open until all picks are completed.

Documents with Open Pick Lists

Controls whether documents can be shipped when related Pick Lists are not fully picked.

Forbid: Blocks shipment and displays an error message.

Allow: Permits shipment without restriction.

Warn: Displays a warning and then permits shipment.


Receiving Configuration

Note: The Enable Manual Order Closing option in Receiving Configuration works the same way as in Shipping. If enabled, users can manually close a receiving document even if it has only been partially processed.


Inventory Adjustment Configuration

Define which Reason Codes are available and how they’re used in adjustments.

Path: WMS+ Admin Panel → Modules → Inventory Adjustment Configuration

  • Reason Codes: They are fully customizable and used to capture the reason behind each inventory adjustment.

    • Can be designated for IN (receipts) or OUT (issues).

    • Are linked to G/L accounts for accurate financial traceability.

    • A Reason Code must be active to appear in WMS+.

    • If at least one active Reason Code is defined, WMS+ requires users to select one before making an adjustment.

  • To configure a new Reason Code:

    • Click the ➕ icon.

    • Enter a Name (e.g. Spoilage, Returns, Cycle Count Adjustment).

    • Select the Adjustment Type (IN or OUT).

    • Assign a relevant G/L Account.

    • Toggle Is Active to enable the code.

    • Click Save.

    Once configured, Reason Codes appear as a required dropdown selection when performing Inventory Adjustments In or Out in WMS+.
