What is Replication?

Description

The process of synchronising the WMS Workspace with your Accounting Company file is called ‘Replication.’

This is a process where WMS scans the related Accounting Company file for important changes then loads this new information into the WMS workspace. For example, new items, customers, or locations will appear in the WMS once a successful Replication occurs.

Replicating is done once or twice daily or as necessary, particularly if significant changes are being made to your Accounting Company file that impacts warehouse operations.
