D365 Advanced Warehouse — directed, mobile, barcode-driven, accurate.

For warehouse managers fighting mis-picks, wrong counts and paper-based processes. We implement Dynamics 365 Advanced Warehouse Management (WMS) end to end — the Warehouse Management mobile app, work templates, location directives, waves, directed picking and cycle counting — and we name every component we configure.

Why this matters

A warehouse wins on accuracy and throughput — and both come from the work setup.

Inventory accuracy, pick rates and on-time despatch all trace back to the same thing: how work is created and directed on the floor. Work templates, location directives, wave processing and the mobile menu are where the warehouse actually performs. A real WMS practice configures all of it. Here's what we deliver.

The solution map

One warehouse core, four configured pillars.

Inbound, internal, outbound and the mobile floor — every component built on one WMS core, not stitched together later.

The differentiators

WMS-specific configuration.

The settings that separate a high-performing warehouse from a plain D365 rollout. This is where we prove the practice.

Work

Work templates & location directives — the signature config

Work templates decide how every task is created and split; location directives decide where stock goes and comes from. Tune these to your layout and velocity and pick rates climb; get them wrong and operators fight the system all day.

Mobile

Warehouse Management mobile app & menus

Mobile device menu items, flows, field configuration and barcode masks (GS1) — so the handheld guides the operator step by step with the fewest possible scans.

Waves

Wave & load processing

Wave templates, automation, methods and load building — so outbound work is released in the right sequence and shipped on time.

Picking

Picking & containerisation strategy

Cluster, batch and single-order picking, plus cartonisation and packing — matched to your order profile to cut walk time and touches.

MHE

MHE & automation integration

Material handling equipment integration — conveyors, sorters and ASRS via the warehousing API — so automation and D365 stay in lockstep.

The challenges we solve

If this is your warehouse, you're who this page is for.

  • "We mis-pick and ship the wrong thing."Directed, barcode-driven picking on the mobile app removes guesswork.
  • "Our inventory counts are never right."Cycle counting with thresholds and tolerances keeps locations accurate.
  • "The floor still runs on paper."The Warehouse Management mobile app guides every task, scan by scan.
  • "Throughput can't keep up at peak."Tuned work templates, waves and picking strategies lift pick rates.

The road ahead

On AX 2012 R3 WMS today? We move you to modern D365 warehousing — without stopping despatch.

Many sites still run AX 2012 R3 warehouse processes or basic inventory. We re-platform onto D365 Advanced Warehouse Management — the mobile app, work templates and directives — and pilot in one zone before rolling out across the floor.

Why Excel Connect Consulting

A practice that speaks the warehouse floor — not just D365 screens.

Component-named consultants

We tell you exactly what our people configure — work templates, directives, waves, mobile menus — not vague "logistics experience".

Floor-fluent SMEs

People who understand a pick path, a wave, a cycle-count tolerance and a despatch cut-off — the operation, not only the configuration.

Throughput-focused

We tune the setup for pick rate and accuracy, and pilot before rollout — so go-live lifts performance instead of risking it.
