Aptean Warehouse Management System requires a few settings to be setup before you can begin using it in your warehouse.

When you want to use handheld devices within your warehouse, they need to communicate with Business Central. To achieve this we start with the basic setup.

Note

When using Warehouse Management System, the communication flow between the Android WMS App and Business Central must be set up. Setting this up can only be performed by Aptean employees. Therefore, please be guided by one of the employees at Aptean.
