

Complete Traceability

Track lots, serial numbers, pallets and goods locations from receiving through delivery.



Fast Identification

Find inventory and movement history immediately, without manual checks across documents or separate applications.



Operational Control

Link every operation to the user, date, document and inventory status for clear operational control.



Complete Control of Warehouse Goods

Warehouse traceability is not only about identifying a product’s current location. It means access to its complete operational history: receiving, storage, movements, replenishment, picking, consolidation, loading and shipping.
Crosspoint WMS links the physical movement of goods with the operations recorded in the system.

Details

Each transaction can be linked to the date and time it was performed, the responsible user, location, document and inventory status.
Information is updated as activities are confirmed in the warehouse, providing a clear, current view of operations.



Traceability Information Available Immediately

The Crosspoint query module enables fast searches using different criteria:

item code or description;
lot or serial number;
pallet, parcel or container;

Details

warehouse location;
receiving or delivery document;
order, invoice or external reference;
supplier, customer or cargo owner;
user who performed the operation;
date and time of the operation.

Instead of checking multiple documents and applications, authorized users can view the relevant inventory information and its history in a single system.

Warehouse Traceability: What Crosspoint WMS Can Track



Lots and Expiration Dates

The system enables inventory to be identified by lot and allocation and delivery rules to be applied according to the company’s operations.
Strategies such as FIFO, FEFO or other configured rules can be used depending on product characteristics and customer requirements.



Serial Numbers

Products that require individual identification can be tracked by serial number from warehouse entry through delivery or return.



Documents and External References

Operations can be linked to receipts, orders, invoices, delivery notes, transfers, transport documents or other references received from company systems.



SKUs and Items

The route of an SKU can be tracked from receiving through warehouse exit, including location changes and operations performed on the inventory.



Storage Locations

The system provides information about the current location of goods and the locations through which they have passed during the logistics flow.



Pallets, Parcels and Logistics Containers

Each pallet or logistics container can have its own identifier. Crosspoint retains the history of locations, movements and operations in which it has been involved.

Warehouse Traceability at Every Stage of the Logistics Flow

Goods Receiving

At warehouse entry, the information required to identify inventory is recorded: item, quantity, lot, serial number, inbound document, supplier and any relevant quality attributes.
Goods can be labeled and associated with a pallet or logistics unit from the moment they are received.

Storage and Internal Movements

Crosspoint records the location where goods are stored and all subsequent movements.
This makes it possible to reconstruct the physical route of a product, lot or pallet between warehouse zones.

Picking-Location Replenishment

Transfers between reserve storage and picking locations are recorded in the system. Inventory can be tracked both at the source location and at the destination.

Picking and Consolidation

Picked products are linked to the orders for which they were allocated. The system can verify the item, quantity, lot, serial number and destination before the operation is confirmed.
In the consolidation area, goods can be grouped and checked before they are prepared for transport.

Loading and Shipping

Crosspoint supports confirmation of loaded goods and links them to delivery documents and orders.
The history remains available for later verification, including complaints, returns or delivery incidents.

Analysis and Continuous Improvement

As the number of products, locations and operations increases, traceability becomes an information-control challenge, not simply a matter of identifying goods.

Fast Inventory Identification

Lots, serial numbers, pallets and locations can be identified without lengthy manual searches through documents or separate files.

Higher Inventory Accuracy

Recording operations as they are executed reduces differences between physical inventory and the information available in the system.

Incident Investigation

The operational history helps identify when and under what circumstances a discrepancy, error or exception occurred.

Management of Non-Conforming Products

Lots or pallets can be assigned statuses and restrictions that limit their use or delivery until the required checks are completed.

Controlled Product Recalls

When a lot must be identified, the system can verify available inventory, its current locations and the deliveries in which it was included.

Operational Accountability

Every operation can be linked to the user who performed it and the time of confirmation, providing a clear record of warehouse activity.

Analysis and Continuous Improvement of Warehouse Traceability

Historical data can be used for process analysis, KPI monitoring and identification of stages where errors or delays occur frequently.

Traceability Adapted to Your Operations

Traceability requirements vary by industry, type of goods and operational complexity.
Crosspoint WMS can be configured for operations such as:

manufacturing and raw-material management;
food products and FMCG;
distribution and retail;

Details

3PL logistics and multi-owner operations
eCommerce and returns management;
products tracked individually by serial number;
workflows requiring quality control;
operations carried out across multiple warehouses.

Rules can be differentiated by product, customer, supplier, cargo owner or type of operation.



Inventory Traceability and Quality Control

Crosspoint supports collaboration between logistics teams and quality-control departments.
Quality statuses and reasons can be recorded at lot, pallet or inbound-document level.
These can trigger:

temporary inventory blocking;

Details

restricting use or delivery;
moving goods to a dedicated area;
performing an inspection;
approving or rejecting product use;
attaching relevant certificates and documents.

The history of these operations remains available to verify how each incident was handled.

Clear Records for Verification and Audit

Crosspoint WMS maintains a consistent record of operations performed on inventory, from receiving through shipping. The information can be used for internal checks, audits, complaint investigation and documentation of how an order or lot was handled. Teams therefore spend less time collecting data from different sources and can make decisions based on a unified operational history.
See how these features are applied in real projects in our WMS case studies.

Integration with ERP and Other Company Systems

Crosspoint WMS can provide ERP integration to receive orders, documents and commercial information required by logistics processes.
The WMS manages physical execution and traceability of warehouse operations, while results can be sent to the ERP or other applications used by the company.
This means financial and commercial systems receive information based on operations actually confirmed in the warehouse.

Frequently Asked Questions About Warehouse Traceability

What Does Warehouse Traceability Mean?

Traceability is the ability to identify the location and history of a product, lot, pallet or serial number throughout its journey in the warehouse, from receiving through delivery.

Can You See Who Performed a Specific Operation?

Yes. Operations recorded in Crosspoint can include the user, date, time, location and transaction status.

Can Products Be Tracked by Lot and Serial Number?

Yes. The traceability method can be configured by item: lot, serial number, inbound document or other characteristics required by the operation.

Can a Lot That Has Already Been Shipped Be Identified?

Yes. The history can identify the orders and deliveries in which a specific lot was used, depending on the information and workflows configured during implementation.

Can Each Client’s Inventory Be Tracked Separately?

Yes. For 3PL or multi-owner operations, Crosspoint WMS can separate inventory and movement history by client, cargo owner, warehouse and location according to the rules defined during implementation.

Can Traceability Be Integrated with the Company ERP?

Yes. Crosspoint can exchange information with the ERP and other company systems so commercial documents remain linked to the physical operations performed in the warehouse.
