Why SAP Business One ERP for warehouse management?
Integrating SAP Business One ERP software with your business process has a lot of benefits which include, but are not limited to, reliable shipment tracking information, cost optimization for material ordering, synchronized inventory tracking, etc.

2. Warehousing
When you have multiple warehouse locations, you would want all of them to be in sync with each other. With a software tool like SAP B1, you can see major vendors in the area, ETAs for delivery from the vendors, and a pricing list. This way, whenever you have to place an order, you can check the warehouse data and best price within minutes.
3. Multi-bin functionality
One of the best features of using SAP Business One ERP is that it provides you with multi-bin functionality. What’s that? Warehouses have multiple bin locations (or sublevels) which can be aisles, zones, shelves, or areas. SAP lets you manage all these bins from within the software.
