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.

Installation

JTL-WMS is installed automatically during the installation of JTL-Wawi. This ensures that both products are always present in the same version. On the workstation on which JTL-WMS is to be installed, you must therefore install the same version of JTL-Wawi that runs on all other workstations. If the wrong version has been installed, a warning appears when starting JTL-WMS and it cannot be started. JTL-WMS is started via the JTL-WMS.exe, which is located in the installation directory of JTL-Wawi.

Setup

The setup of a JTL-WMS warehouse is initially carried out via the Setup Wizard of the warehouse management under JTL-Wawi and can be configured via a variety of options.

Defining Windows parameters for starting JTL-WMS

The parameters for starting JTL-WMS can be found here.

You can start JTL-WMS via the shortcut in the Windows Start menu, for example. JTL-WMS accesses the same database as JTL-Wawi. To set up JTL-Wawi, please have a look at the help pages under Database.

When you first start JTL-WMS, you must select with which database profile and which warehouse you want to log into.

Profile: First, select which database profile you want to use. If you have only defined a database profile for JTL-Wawi, this is usually called Standard.
Database: The database (tenant) with which you want to connect. If you use the Standard profile, this is eB-standard.
Warehouse: Select the warehouse, in which you want to use JTL-WMS. Only warehouses with of the WMS warehouse type will be displayed. If no WMS warehouse is displayed here, please read Creating JTL-WMS warehouses to learn how to create a WMS warehouse.
User: The user with whom you log into the database.
