Order flow
How we prepare orders
Every order goes through a clear flow, from identifying the products to a parcel ready for shipment.
Order intake
We identify the products and quantities to be prepared.
Picking
Products are taken from the stock locations shown in the WMS.
Checking
We check the items and quantities before packing.
Packing
Products are packed to the agreed requirements.
Preparation for shipment
The completed order is prepared to leave the warehouse.
Pick & Pack
Picking and packing in a single flow
Pick & Pack covers order preparation from shelf to parcel. Picking means selecting products from stock; packing covers checking and packing them for shipment.
- preparing orders with one or more products;
- checking products and quantities;
- packing orders;
- labelling parcels, when needed;
- additional co-packing operations.
For further requirements, the flow can continue with packing, labelling and wrapping services.
E-commerce
Pick & Pack for e-commerce
For online shops, TCE Logiplus can handle order preparation once orders enter the warehouse flow. Products are picked from stock, brought together per order, checked and packed before shipment.
- orders with a single product or several items;
- different quantities within the same order;
- checking products before packing;
- packing and labelling to the agreed requirements;
- preparing parcels for shipment.
WMS and control
Picking connected to the WMS
The WMS shows which product to pick, in what quantity and from which stock location. Operators work from the information for each order, and picking stays linked to stock management.
If the flow includes scan control, products can be checked by barcode before order preparation continues. At the end, the delivery and accompanying documents can also be prepared.
E-commerce integration
The TCE Logiplus platform can integrate with any e-commerce platform on the market, to take in orders and pass on the data the warehouse operations need.
Veterinary-sanitary authorised warehouse
TCE Logiplus operates a veterinary-sanitary authorised warehouse for products of animal and non-animal origin, from EU and non-EU countries, within the limits and conditions set by the applicable authorisations.
