Managing the receipt, storage and outflow of products or materials is perhaps the most basic function any warehouse performs. It is also one of the most challenging – and made more challenging if you are a third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse managing these functions for multiple B2B, ecommerce, or omnichannel clients. This process, known as “Inventory Management”, begins before an individual product ever arrives at the 3PL warehouse – and can continue even after the product leaves the warehouse and is delivered to its final destination.
