Work is confirmed where the goods are.
Alongside the web application for the office, NG WMS has a dedicated app for work on the warehouse floor. Receiving, dispatch, transfers, counting and stock and location checks are confirmed by barcode scanning — where the goods are, without paper or retyping.

What work with the scanner covers
Warehouse staff work on the same orders, waves and tasks the office sees. We show scanner work live in the demo.
Receiving and dispatch
Goods receiving and dispatch with scanning. A delivery note is worked in manual or guided mode, depending on the warehouse setting.
Transfers
Moving stock between locations is recorded in the scanner app, and the transfer history is available in the web application’s reports.
Counting
Counting by count task. The office sees who counted, on which device and which code was scanned.
Stock and locations
Checks of stock, container location, free locations and empty containers, plus barcode checks.
Waves for pickers
Once the office releases a wave, pickers see it in the app straight away and can start picking.
Sign-in without typing
With a username and password, a QR code or the user’s RF/NFC badge — the code is linked to the user in administration.
How work is split between office and floor
The same documents, two roles: the office plans and releases, the floor executes and confirms.
- 01
The office releases work
A picking wave, a count task or a receipt order becomes visible in the scanner app.
- 02
Staff scan
Location, container and item are confirmed by scanning rather than copied from paper.
- 03
The trail stays in the WMS
Who worked, on which device and what was scanned is visible in the office and in reports.
What changes in practice
Sign-in for shared devices
When several people use the same device during the day, signing in with a QR code or RF/NFC badge is quicker than typing a password, and the work still belongs to one specific user.
Guided or more flexible
For dispatch, the warehouse chooses manual or guided mode. The same warehouse can therefore require a stricter sequence where mistakes are costly.
No retyping
The scanner app works on the same orders, waves and tasks the office sees, so results are not carried by hand from one system to another.
Frequently asked questions
Is the scanner app part of NG WMS?
Yes. It is a dedicated app for work on the warehouse floor, alongside the web application for the office — on the same orders, waves and tasks.
How do staff sign in?
With a username and password, a QR code or an RF/NFC badge. The code or badge is linked to the user in administration, so every scanned step is recorded under their name.
What can staff do in the app?
Receiving, dispatch, transfers, counting, and checks of stock, container location, free locations and empty containers, plus barcode checks. Pickers see a released wave straight away.
Which devices does it run on?
Devices are matched to the equipment you use or plan to buy and checked in your warehouse as part of the rollout.
How does the scanner app reduce errors?
Location, container and item are confirmed by scanning instead of being copied from paper, and guided dispatch mode enforces a strict sequence where mistakes are costly.

Barcodes, SSCC and LPN in the warehouse: what each one is and how it is used
An EAN identifies a product, an LPN a unit of stock inside the warehouse, and an SSCC a pallet or carton on its way to the customer. A plain-language guide to the differences, where each label goes and the mistakes that stop scanning from helping.

What is a WMS, and when does a warehouse need more than an ERP?
A WMS runs stock by location, task and scan; the ERP keeps the books. What a warehouse management system actually does, how it differs from an ERP inventory module, and the signs that you have outgrown spreadsheets.
