WMS Software Services

What is Logvance WMS and who is it built for?

Logvance WMS is the warehouse management system Logvance developed to run its own warehouses and now also offers to its customers. It is not a customisation layered on a purchased package; it grew out of the warehouse operation we have run since 2019 and is the very software working every day in our warehouses in Ataşehir, Istanbul and in Neu-Ulm, Germany.

The software serves two groups of users:

• Our fulfillment and 3PL customers: brands that keep their stock in our warehouses log in with their own user account and follow stock, order and return movements without asking us.
• Businesses running their own warehouse: companies that want to operate in their own facility use the software from the cloud or install it on their own servers. The operation does not have to be at Logvance.

Which steps does an order go through in Logvance WMS?

The quickest way to see what the system does is to follow a single e-commerce order from the marketplace to the delivery vehicle:

1. Order arrives: an order from a marketplace such as Trendyol, Hepsiburada, Amazon, n11 or Pazarama, or from a store on Shopify, Ticimax, IdeaSoft or ikas, is transferred into the system through the integration. The items are reserved from sellable stock; the same unit cannot be sold a second time in another channel.
2. Sorting by cut-off time: pending orders appear in two queues around the 14:00 cut-off. Which orders ship today is not guessed; it is visible on the dashboard.
3. Picking task: the warehouse operator's handheld terminal receives a task list sorted by location. The operator scans the location first, then the product barcode; a wrong product, wrong lot or short quantity is not accepted by the terminal.
4. Packing verification: picked items are scanned once more at the packing station. When the order is complete, the shipping label and invoice are generated from the system.
5. Dispatch and feedback: parcels are sorted by carrier, the dispatch record is created with an outbound scan and the tracking number is written back to the sales channel.
6. Stock deduction and reporting: the item is deducted from stock by location and lot. The same movement is reflected instantly on the dashboard counters, in the weekly order and product reports and in the customer's own view.

No step in this flow relies on the operator's memory; an error is caught at the moment of scanning, not after it reaches the customer. Our order preparation accuracy is 99.99%.

Why is stock tracked by SKU, lot and expiry date?

An accounting package's stock card says "120 units in the warehouse". Logvance WMS knows in which locations, from which batches and with which expiry dates those 120 units are sitting. This distinction is mandatory for date-sensitive product groups such as cosmetics, dermocosmetics, OTC products and food supplements:

The inventory module shows these four dimensions together. The difference between sellable stock and stock physically on the shelf, blocked and damaged items are shown separately; only sellable stock is sent to the channels.

Which marketplaces, e-commerce platforms and ERP systems does it integrate with?

If you use an ERP or custom software not on this list, the connection is built as a customer-specific integration, by Logvance's own team. The full list of channel connections is on the integrations page.

Which hardware does it run on in the warehouse?

• Android handheld terminals: our warehouses use Zebra and Honeywell industrial Android terminals. Picking, put-away, counting and returns receipt tasks run on this screen; every step is verified by a barcode scan.
• Fixed barcode scanners: at packing and goods-receipt stations, items are verified a second time with a fixed scanner.
• Label printers: product, carton, location and shipping labels are generated by the system and printed.

If you will use the software in your own warehouse, your existing Android terminals can be connected; the hardware list is drawn up together in the pre-installation analysis. RFID is not used.

Cloud or installation on your own server?

Logvance WMS is offered in both models. The choice depends less on software features than on your IT structure and data policy:

How do you access the system as a fulfillment customer?

A brand working with Logvance manages its stock remotely, so it should look closely at how much access it has to the provider's system. Logvance WMS was designed as a multi-client 3PL system: in the same warehouse, several brands' stock is separated by customer account and each customer sees only its own data. The dashboard is filtered to a single customer account and shows live counters: how many orders came in today, how many were packed, how many returns were opened and put away, and what is waiting in the put-away pool. Stock questions are not sent by e-mail; they are answered in the system.

How is Logvance WMS rolled out in your own warehouse?

1. Analysis: your product group, SKU count, sales channels, ERP and carriers, and your lot and expiry requirements are mapped together.
2. Master data and location preparation: products without barcodes, duplicate records and unaddressed shelves are fixed before go-live.
3. Installation and integration: cloud or on-premise installation; marketplace, platform and ERP connections are tested.
4. Training and transition count: the warehouse team learns to work with the handheld; opening stock is counted by location and loaded into the system.
5. Go-live: the operation starts running through the system; reports and screens are adjusted to need in the first period.

How long this takes depends on SKU count, the cleanliness of master data and the number of systems to integrate; the timeline is set once the analysis is complete.

How does it differ from an off-the-shelf WMS?

• Speed of change: a missing screen or report does not wait for a third-party vendor's roadmap.
• Modules from the floor: features such as the put-away pool, the problem-resolution list and hot distribution came from the warehouse team's daily work, not from a marketing list.
• One point of contact: because both the operation and the software are ours, you are never caught between a logistics company and a software vendor when something needs fixing.

How does pricing work?

There is no standard package list for Logvance WMS; the price is set by a quote prepared per project. The quote is driven by the number of warehouses and users, order volume, the number of marketplaces, platforms and ERP systems to integrate, cloud or on-premise preference, handheld requirements and training scope. For our fulfillment customers, system access is part of the operations service. Request a quote for your own operation.

How are data security and authorisation handled?

Logvance holds the ISO/IEC 27001 information security management certificate and processes data under applicable data protection law. Every user works with their own account; the Warehouse Logs module records warehouse movements with user and time information, so it is always possible to query who last moved a product and for which operation. Our certificates are listed on the certificates page.
