The multi-warehouse challenge
As soon as a company has two or more warehouses, classic problems arise: stockouts at one site while another is overstocked, orders shipped from the wrong warehouse, inventories that never reconcile. All managed through Excel files exchanged by email.
The VIA ERP solution
Real-time consolidated view
VIA ERP displays a consolidated view of your stock across all warehouses. For each product (and each variant), you see available, reserved and in-transit stock at each site — on a single screen.
Inter-warehouse transfers
Transfers between sites are tracked as full stock movements. You create a transfer order, validate it, then confirm receipt upon arrival. Stock is automatically adjusted in both warehouses.
Inventory adjustments
Discrepancies between physical and system stock are inevitable. VIA ERP allows documented inventory adjustments: every correction is recorded with the reason, date and responsible user.
FIFO valuation
The FIFO (First In, First Out) method ensures accurate stock valuation. The system automatically calculates the acquisition cost of each outgoing batch, respecting chronological order of entry.
Case study: Food distribution
A food distribution company with 3 depots (Tunis, Sousse, Sfax) previously used Excel files to track inventory. Result: 12% loss due to inventory errors and undetected expired products. With VIA ERP, low-stock alerts per warehouse and FIFO traceability reduced losses to 2% within three months.
Conclusion
Multi-warehouse management no longer needs to be complex. With VIA ERP, centralisation and traceability are automatic — you focus on logistics, not data entry.
