Get Qstock®

Run a better organised and more efficient warehouse
Our Qstock app plugs in easily to your existing ERP to give you the depth and flexibility of recording you need to be sure of exactly what stock you’ve got and where it is. Combined with huge freedom in the design of putaway and picking rules, stock counting management, and replenishment methods, that means you can optimise your processes to best fit your particular warehouse. Plus, the software’s designed to be used on the move – so it takes fewer staff to get the work done, as well as saving time and improving accuracy as everything can be handled right on the warehouse floor.

Just a few of the things you can do with Qstock

Handle goods checking even when things don’t go exactly to plan – so your team can not only record standard delivery details and reconcile deliveries to purchase orders, but also reject unwanted deliveries (or goods within deliveries) or accept unexpected goods. 

Record best-before dates, giving you cradle-to-grave traceability – so you can easily track products from their source through to the end customer.
Design a putaway system that’s efficient and easy to follow, but which can also be manually overridden – plus define different maps and putaway rules for multiple locations, so you can optimise for each warehouse layout.
Manage inter-warehouse transfers, easily recording and tracking products as they move between depots.
Choose how you manage stock counting (e.g. by aisle, or by customised product group) and choose how often to instigate a count (e.g. count fast movers or high-value lines more often), so there’s less disruption for your warehouse team and it’s easier to spot discrepancies and avoid out-of-stocks.

Set up whatever methods of replenishment best fit your warehouse (wave, top-up, interactive, etc) as well as trigger emergency replenishments – so you’re always ready to give customers what they need.

Qstock makes it easier to…

Deal with the unexpected

However carefully you hone your business processes, there will always be things that just don’t fit neatly into the system. Being able to automate processes while still leaving room for human input means that when something unexpected happens your team can easily log it and move on – rather than wasting time on complicated workarounds, or causing problems later on because something couldn’t be recorded accurately.

Minimise your losses

Mistakes in the warehouse – misplaced stock, lost orders, incorrect picking – can result in huge costs for your business. The level of detail Qstock is set up to record, combined with its flexibility to handle non-standard data, makes it much easier to know exactly what you’ve got and where it is. Plus, making better use of automation means you can guarantee greater accuracy, simply taking the opportunity for human error out of the equation.

Have a happier team

With huge flexibility in the design of storing rules, and the ability to optimise for each particular warehouse layout, you can create a much more positive experience for your team. More efficient putaway processes and picking paths mean less confusion and congestion in the warehouse, so both putaway and picking staff can work faster, more safely, and with less travel. So you can get the right goods in and out of the door, faster.

Make the most of hub and spoke

With hub-and-spoke functionality, Qnetex lets you manage depots and stock with ease. You can spot opportunities to move stock and improve efficiency, assemble deliveries by route or order, take advantages of economies of scale to bring down your costs and stay on top of best-before dates to bring down wastage.

Hear from a happy customer

“Introducing Qstock from the Qnetex suite has been a positive and significant step change for Bidfood. Before Qstock, our operations teams were operating a Warehouse Management System (WMS) that was paper based. Having a manual system such as paper was driving a high level of inefficiency across the operation; we could see confirming our stock transactions typically took our operations hours to process, as well as a high degree of cancellations and inefficient movements within our warehouses. To grow our capabilities, capacities and our growing customer needs, we knew we needed to change our approach.

Now, Introducing Qstock to our warehouse teams, we can see where stock is in real time, and where it needs to be. Qstock’s intelligence enables the teams to prioritise certain tasks to meet our customer needs and move our products around in our warehouse more efficiently and accurately. Utilising real time and live data available to our WMS system allows us to have “the right stock, in the right place, at the right time.”
