❓ Domande frequenti

What's the difference between OMS and ERP?
OMS = order-focused (receive, route, track, fulfill). ERP = enterprise-wide (inventory, accounting, HR, finance). OMS sits within ERP. Most companies: use ERP (SAP, Oracle) for accounting, OMS (specialized) for fulfillment.
How does OMS integrate with inventory?
OMS checks inventory before confirming order. Order placed → OMS checks stock → reserve or allocate from warehouse. Inventory updated in real-time. Prevents overselling.
What's order routing and why is it complex?
Order routing = deciding where to fulfill from (which warehouse, store, dropshipper). Complex because: minimize cost, minimize shipping time, balance load, inventory availability. Algorithm = optimization problem.
Can OMS handle multiple channels?
Yes, that's the point. Orders from web, app, Amazon, Shopify, stores all flow through OMS. Unified inventory prevents conflicts.
How do I track orders after fulfillment?
OMS integrates with shipping providers (FedEx, UPS, DHL). Tracking status propagated: shipped, in transit, delivered. Real-time visibility for customers.
