JTL-Links

Thank you for using the English version of the JTL-Guide!
We are currently still building up the English documentation; not all sections have been translated yet. Please note that there may still be German screenshots or links to German pages even on pages that have already been translated. This guide mostly addresses English speaking users in Germany.

Note: On 1 September 2024, JTL introduced new editions that bundle most of the previous individual services into different packages. In order for you to continue working as smoothly as possible, existing customers were automatically switched to the package configuration that best matched their existing contract. The individual packages differ in terms of limitations and/or range of functions. Therefore, some of the features described in the JTL-Guide may not be available to you as part of your booked JTL edition. You can change your package configuration in your JTL customer account. Find out more about the new editions and packages here. Check our FAQ for frequently asked questions about the product editions.

Creating and setting up WMS warehouses

Your task/initial situation

You have decided to use JTL-WMS and would like to transfer your warehouse layout to JTL-WMS.

Requirements

You have already installed JTL-Wawi.
You have activated a licence for JTL-WMS in the JTL-Customer Centre.

General information

Please note: JTL-WMS can only be used with warehouses of the “WMS warehouse” type. If goods receipt and goods issue take place via JTL-WMS, the goods receipt and shipping process of JTL-Wawi cannot be used at the same time within this warehouse.

We recommend a fully equipped packing table for each employee working at the same time.
Keep in mind seasonal peaks like Christmas.
All shelf locations must be provided with bar codes that can be entered electronically (without exception) if you plan to use JTL-WMS Mobile.
The standard code CODE128 can be read easily, is widely used and internationally recognised.
To avoid reading errors, the bar code should contain at least 5 alphanumeric characters.
Define all intermediate storage locations and create storage locations in JTL-WMS for special cases (in-store location, pallet location, return/clarification location, etc.).
Fixed locations for picking and storage trolleys are a good idea and make working more pleasant.

Creating WMS warehouses

Start JTL-Wawi.
Go to Menu: Warehouses > Warehouse to open the dialogue box Create and edit warehouses.
Click New to create a new warehouse.
Give your warehouse a name and, under Warehouse type, select WMS warehouse from the drop-down menu.
Once you have selected WMS warehouse, you can start the Setup Wizard. Please note that the Setup Wizard cannot be accessed manually.

Please note: You can create storage locations manually or via the Setup Wizard. You can edit the warehouse manually at any time. Read more on how to create a JTL-WMS warehouse using the Setup Wizard.

If you do not use the Setup Wizard, enter your address information in the Contact area and Warehouse address area.

Your WMS warehouse has now been created. Read below how to create storage locations for your WMS warehouse.

Creating storage locations manually

Creating storage locations in JTL-Wawi

If you do not use the Setup Wizard, create a warehouse layout and storage locations as follows:

Creating a storage location in JTL-WMS

You can add individual storage locations to your warehouse in JTL-WMS.

Your storage space is now active in the system and can be used.

Printing storage location labels

Print storage location labels to identify the storage locations. To do this, adjust the format in the print template if necessary.

In WMS, navigate to the item Internal > Storage location overview and select all desired storage locations. With the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+A you can select all locations.
Click on the semi-transparent arrow and the Print icon to print the labels.
