1 Overview

RWMS is a warehouse management system that provides all of the tools necessary to control a modern Distribution Center (DC). RWMS optimizes the flow of merchandise and resources at the DC, fulfillment center, or warehouse. RWMS functionality enables fulfillment across multiple channels. The Web architecture extends functionality and visibility to remote facilities and trading partners via the Internet.
