New Features

Warehouse Layout Update

This release includes a major update to the warehouse layout configuration. The warehouse layout interface has been redesigned to make it easier and more flexible to set up your warehouse in PeakWMS. The core functionality of warehouse setup, such as creating areas, locations, and similar elements, remains unchanged.

Choose Your Own Grid Size

As part of the warehouse layout update, you can now adjust the size of the grid used to display your locations. This allows you to decide how precisely shelves and locations can be positioned within your warehouse.

To change the grid size, click the icon shown below. By default, the grid size is set to 1, matching the layout shown in the example image. If you need a smaller grid size, you can enter decimal values in the pop-up window.

Improved Shelf/Location Placement Indicator

You now get a clearer indication of whether a shelf or location can be placed in your desired position.

If you try to place a shelf or location on top of another location, PeakWMS will show the available placement area. Valid placement positions are highlighted in green.

If you still attempt to place a shelf or location on top of another shelf or location, PeakWMS will automatically place it in the highlighted green area when you release it.

Bulk Move Locations

You can now select and move multiple shelves or locations in your warehouse layout at the same time.

Select locations by dragging your mouse across them.

Once selected, the locations will be highlighted with a blue border to indicate the selection.

You can then drag all selected shelves or locations to a new position in the warehouse, eliminating the need to move them one by one.

Copy Locations

Right-click your selected locations to open a menu. From here, choose "Duplicate Selection" and select where you want the locations to be duplicated. The locations will then be copied to the chosen area.

The copied locations will be placed in the nearest available position within the selected area, based on your chosen placement option.

Rotate Locations

Right-click your selected locations and choose "Rotate" to rotate them.

Please note that there must be enough available space in the warehouse to rotate all selected locations together. If sufficient space is not available, the locations will not be rotated.

Screen Configuration: Optional Item Information Display During Load Carrier Moves

We have made it possible to customize which information is displayed when moving a load carrier (such as a pallet or box) in the warehouse worker app.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, the item information displayed during load carrier moves was fixed. Now you can configure your Material Card to show exactly the fields that are important for your workflow, such as EAN numbers, product names, or specific inventory information.

This makes it easier and faster to identify the correct items during the move and provides a more consistent experience across the system, where many other views are already configurable.

You can configure a Material Card (screen setup) under Settings > Screen Configuration.

Stock Transfer: Improved Handling of Short Picks During Warehouse Transfers

We have made it easier and more consistent to handle situations where not all items can be found during a stock transfer.

What does this mean for you?

When picking for a stock transfer and entering a quantity lower than expected, you will now see the same options menu that is available during regular picking.

You can choose between:

• Short Pick: Select this if the item is not available at the location. PeakWMS will automatically attempt to find the item elsewhere in the warehouse so it can be picked from another location instead. If the item is not available anywhere else, it will be marked as short picked, allowing the transfer picking process to continue afterwards.
• Partial Pick: Select this if you only want to pick part of the required quantity now and leave the remaining quantity for later.

No More "Locked" Inventory

We have also fixed an issue where inventory could become effectively "locked" if a quantity of 0 was entered during a stock transfer.

Previously, the item could end up in an inconsistent state where it was neither transferred nor available for other picking operations. Reservations will now be released correctly, making the inventory immediately available again.

If the item is short picked during the transfer, the inventory will be removed from stock in the same way as a normal short pick.

Reports: New Overview of Total Warehouse Performance Over Time

We have introduced a new statistics chart type called "Total Performance", providing an overview of your warehouse team's combined performance.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, you could compare individual employees. Now you can view the warehouse's total output as a single combined performance metric.

This makes it easier to identify trends, evaluate busy periods, and measure the impact of process changes across the entire warehouse. Performance per employee remains available as before.

What You Get with the New Feature

• Choose your process: Create graphs for Goods Receipt, Replenishment, Picking, and Packing. If you select Picking, you can also choose which picking process to analyze.
• Flexible display options: View either total output (such as total picked order lines) or averages per effective working hour.
• Custom time intervals: Analyze performance by hour, day, week, or month to focus on the level of detail that matters most to you.
• Personalized styling: Choose your own chart color to match your dashboard.
• Smarter calculations: When calculating averages, the system automatically excludes break periods (based on your inactivity settings), just as it does for employee statistics.

Order Management: Stop Resend Orders with "Cancel Resend"

We have made it possible to stop a resend order if it is no longer relevant or has become blocked due to insufficient stock.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, an order could become caught in an endless resend loop after using the "Resend" function.

For example, if an item was out of stock, the system would continue trying to resend the order every time new inventory became available, without any simple way to stop the process.

This has now changed:

• New "Cancel Resend" button: You can stop a scheduled resend order directly from the order overview. When selected, PeakWMS removes the reservation and stops any future resend attempts for the affected items.
• Cleans up active picking tasks: If a worker has already started picking the resend order but has not yet shipped it, the pick order will be cancelled and the inventory will automatically be made available again. The items must then be manually moved from the load carrier back to a pick location.
• Stops the loop when deleting: If you manually delete a pick order marked as "Resend", PeakWMS will now interpret this as a request to stop the resend process completely, preventing it from being recreated the next day.
• Full control: Regular pick orders that are short picked or fail will still be resent exactly as before. Only manually created "Resend" requests can now be explicitly cancelled.

Other Updates

Rules Engine: Multiple Values and Smarter Conditions

We have significantly improved the rules engine, making it easier and more intuitive to configure rules for both picking groups and order release processes.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, you often had to create multiple similar rules if, for example, you wanted a rule to apply to ten different product groups. Now, you can handle everything within a single rule.

What's new:

• New operators: "In" and "Not In"
  You can now select multiple values in a single rule (such as countries, product groups, or locations). This saves time and provides a much clearer overview of your rules.
• Less clutter
  By combining multiple criteria into one rule, you no longer need long lists of nearly identical rules, making your warehouse configuration easier to maintain.

This update makes managing how orders and picking operations are handled both faster and more reliable.

Reports: Improved Overview in the Duplicate Barcodes Report

We have enhanced the Duplicate Barcodes report, making it much easier to identify which goods owner and integrations are associated with affected products.

What does this mean for you?

For 3PL warehouses, two new columns are now available:

• Goods Owner Name
  Instead of only showing an ID, the report now displays the name of the goods owner associated with the product.
• Integration Name
  You can now see the name of the webshop or ERP system (such as Shopify or e-conomic) connected to the duplicate barcodes. If products originate from multiple integrations, all relevant integrations will be listed.

This makes it much easier to resolve duplicate barcode issues without having to investigate which goods owner or webshop the products belong to.

Purchase Demand: More Accurate Forecasting Based on the Most Recent Year's Sales

We have improved the purchase demand calculation to provide a significantly more accurate view of actual sales trends and future inventory needs.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, quarterly sales calculations could, in some cases, combine figures from multiple years (for example, Q1 from both 2023 and 2024). This could result in misleading forecasts, especially for products whose popularity has changed over time.

What's improved:

• More accurate forecasts based on current sales trends rather than multi-year historical averages.
• Improved inventory management by reducing the risk of overordering products that were popular in previous years but are less relevant today.
• Better handling of seasonal products by considering only the most recent year's seasonal sales patterns.

This provides a stronger foundation for purchasing decisions and helps balance inventory investment with product availability.

Products: New and Improved Design for "Fetch Products"

We have redesigned the Fetch Products page to provide a more user-friendly and modern experience.

What does this mean for you?

When manually importing products from your webshop or ERP system into PeakWMS, you will now benefit from:

• Clear separation between integrations
  Each active integration is displayed in its own dedicated section with a recognizable logo.
• Better overview
  More spacing and improved visual organization help you quickly locate the relevant integration.
• Improved usability
  The updated layout makes navigation easier, allowing you to synchronize new products more efficiently.

Products: Improved Visibility of Inventory Events

We have improved the display of product-related events and relationships, making it much easier to locate relevant information.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, users often had to scroll horizontally to view links such as inventory events because of long text entries elsewhere in the grid.

What has changed:

• Easier access
  Links to inventory events, such as inventory adjustments, are now shorter and immediately visible.
• Dedicated tab for system messages
  Links to external system messages (host messages) have been moved to a separate tab, creating a cleaner and more organized inventory overview.

Purchasing: Visibility of Over-Receipt Settings on Purchase Orders

We have added the "Allow Over-Receipt" field to the purchase order overview in the administration interface.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, it was not possible to see directly from the overview whether a purchase order allowed receiving more items than originally ordered.

The field is now available in the overview, enabling you to sort and filter purchase orders based on this setting.

Note: The column must be added via table settings within the Purchase Order dialog.

Orders: Display Number of Shipping Units on Packing Slips

You can now display the exact number of packages, pallets, or handling units directly on packing slips.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, it was not always clear how many physical units were included in a shipment.

Now you can display this information alongside other order details such as the order number and reference.

Key features:

• Optional functionality
  Configure the desired label (for example, "Number of Packages" or "Number of Pallets") in your packing slip settings. If left blank, the field will not be displayed.
• Automatic counting
  • Standard shipments: number of packages.
  • B2B packing: number of pallets/handling units.
  • Multi-package shipments: total number of packages.
• Language-specific translations
  Configure different labels per country, just like other packing slip translations in PeakWMS.

Important: To display the field on Danish shipments, you must create a packing slip configuration for Denmark (DK). If no packing slip configuration exists, the field will not be displayed by default.

Import: Bulk Update Shelf-Life Management via Excel Import

You can now enable or disable Best Before Date (BBD) management through the product Excel import process.

What does this mean for you?

If you manage many products requiring shelf-life tracking, you can now update this setting for large numbers of products at once without manually editing each individual item.

What's new:

• New import field: BestBeforeDateControlled
• Supports both numeric values (1 / 0) and text values (true / false)
• New products can be configured as shelf-life controlled directly during import

This makes setup and maintenance faster and more efficient.

Packing: Faster B2B Packing with Automatic Weight and Dimensions

We have streamlined B2B packing for orders shipped as a single handling unit, such as a pallet or box.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, weight and dimensions always had to be entered manually, even for single-unit shipments.

Now PeakWMS automatically fills in this information.

Key improvements:

• Automatic retrieval of dimensions from the selected load carrier.
• Automatic weight calculation based on load carrier tare weight plus product weight.
• Calculated weight displayed directly in the packing overview.
• Automatic calculation is disabled when multiple packages are added, allowing manual entry as usual.
• New Back button on the dimensions screen for easier navigation.

Orders: Packing Slips with Best Before Dates and Batch Numbers

You can now ensure that Best Before Dates (BBD), batch/lot numbers, and serial numbers are included on your packing slips.

What does this mean for you?

Previously, packing slips were often generated at the same time as shipping labels. If this occurred before picking, the system did not yet know which specific lot or batch would be picked.

What's new:

• Packing slips can now be generated after picking is completed, ensuring accurate traceability information is included.
• The feature can be enabled for an entire account or per goods owner (3PL).
• PeakWMS only delays packing slip generation when traceability-controlled products are present.
• Shipping labels continue to be generated at the normal stage of the process.

The setting can be enabled under: Settings > Orders > Order Management

The information will be displayed on the packing slip as shown in the example image below.

Bug Fixes

Orders: Improved Stability of Shipping Label Creation During Order Release

We have fixed an issue that could occasionally cause orders to become stuck with a "shipping label error" when released for picking. The issue primarily affected webshops using shipping integrations that generate labels immediately upon order release.

Previously, a temporary database interruption could cause an order to be placed on hold, even though the shipping label had already been successfully created by the carrier. If the order was manually released again, PeakWMS would generate a new label, potentially resulting in duplicate shipping charges for the same package.

Returns: Improved Handling of Replacement Items

We have fixed an issue that could occur when customers requested replacement items as part of a return process.

Previously, replacement items might not be released for picking if information about the replacement product arrived in PeakWMS after the return case had already been created.

PeakWMS now ensures replacement items are always handled correctly, regardless of whether the replacement item or the return request is registered first. The system will either release the replacement item immediately or place it on hold (if your setup requires the returned item to be received first), ensuring customers receive their replacements as expected.

This applies even if the original order has already been packed or shipped.

POS: Correct Handling of Shopify POS Orders

We have fixed an issue where Shopify POS orders (sales completed in a physical store) could sometimes be imported as normal warehouse orders requiring picking and shipping.

When an item is sold through Shopify POS, it has already been handed over to the customer and should only reduce inventory levels.

PeakWMS now consistently recognizes Shopify POS sales and excludes them from warehouse picking workflows, ensuring warehouse staff do not accidentally pick and ship products that customers have already taken home.

Purchasing: Stable Sorting Across Pages

We have fixed an issue that could cause sorting to behave inconsistently in certain overviews, such as Purchase Demand, when navigating between pages.

Previously, products could appear on different pages or change position when sorting by values shared by multiple products.

Sorting is now fully consistent. Products remain in the same position unless filters or sorting criteria are changed.

This improvement also applies to exported data.

Resend Orders: Correct Inventory Status

We have fixed an issue that could display incorrect inventory availability when resending items from older orders whose picking history had been archived.

Previously, both the original shipment and the resend shipment could be counted as reserved inventory, resulting in artificially reduced available stock levels.

PeakWMS now correctly calculates reservations. Only quantities that still need to be shipped are considered reserved, regardless of whether the original picking history has been archived.

This ensures accurate inventory, purchasing, and returns data.

Locations: Improved Handling When Deleting Workstations

We have improved data integrity when deleting workstations, such as packing stations and replenishment stations.

Previously, deleting a workstation could leave behind orphaned locations that were no longer associated with a warehouse.

The deletion process now correctly handles these relationships and prevents inconsistent warehouse data.

Orders: Prevent Errors When Completing Orders with Parked Tasks

We have improved validation when manually completing orders.

If an order contains a parked pick task (for example, due to missing inventory), the order can no longer be manually completed until the parked task has been resolved.

Previously, orders could be marked as completed while still appearing in the list of parked tasks requiring action.

Users now receive a clear error message instructing them to complete or reset the parked task before closing the order.

This ensures dashboards and task lists always reflect the actual warehouse workload.

POS: Shipping Labels for Orders Without Billing Addresses

We have fixed an issue that prevented certain orders from being packed if they were missing a billing address.

The issue only affected POS orders (excluding Shopify POS) using Webshipper shipping methods.

PeakWMS can now successfully generate shipping labels as long as a valid delivery address exists.

Orders: Automatic Cleanup of Alarms on Cancelled Orders

We have fixed an issue where order alarms, such as Missing Shipping Information, remained visible even after an order had been cancelled.

Previously, cancelled orders could clutter alarm dashboards because their alerts were never automatically removed.

PeakWMS now removes all relevant alarms immediately when an order is cancelled, whether cancellation originates from a webshop or is performed manually.

Note: Payment-related alarms are still retained to ensure financial follow-up remains visible.

3PL: Removal of Faulty Bulk Edit Functionality for Goods Owners

We have removed the Bulk Edit option from the Goods Owner overview because the functionality was not operating correctly and generated system errors.

Goods owners can still be created, edited, and deleted individually as before.

All other 3PL functionality remains unaffected.

Picking: Improved Stability During Consolidation

We have fixed an issue that could cause the picking app to become stuck on a loading spinner when confirming the final item on a picking cart.

The issue occurred in warehouses using multiple consolidation methods simultaneously.

The system now ensures employees are only directed to valid consolidation workflows, preventing the application from becoming unresponsive.

Packing: Improved Security for Packing Stations

We have fixed an issue that allowed warehouse employees to see or log in to packing stations belonging to warehouses they were not assigned to.

Warehouse access restrictions now apply consistently to packing station access as well.

Purchasing: Currency Symbols Now Display on All Prices

We have improved visibility of pricing information on purchase order lines.

Previously, values such as unit cost, discounts, and totals appeared without currency indicators.

Currency symbols are now displayed throughout the purchase order interface, making it much easier to distinguish between currencies.

Reports: Warehouse Value Report Shows Correct Storage Time

We have improved the Warehouse Value report to calculate inventory age correctly.

Previously, storage duration was calculated using the product creation date rather than the date inventory actually arrived at the warehouse.

The report now reflects actual storage time, providing more reliable information about slow-moving inventory.

3PL: Prevent Mixing Goods Owners in Bundles and BOGO Promotions

We have introduced a safeguard preventing products from different goods owners from being combined in:

• Bundles
• Assortments
• BOGO promotions

This prevents situations where inventory belonging to one customer could mistakenly be allocated to another customer’s orders.

Dashboard: Counters Now Match Overview Results

Dashboard counters have been updated to ensure they always display the exact same counts as the overview screens they link to.

This resolves discrepancies that could occur when using advanced filters, search wildcards, or date ranges.

Purchasing: Improved Feedback During Purchase Order Excel Imports

We have improved import result reporting for purchase order Excel imports.

Previously, empty rows or total rows included in supplier spreadsheets could trigger misleading messages indicating no changes had been imported, even when valid data had been imported successfully.

Import feedback is now more accurate and easier to understand.

Orders: Delivery Date Updates via Integrations

We have fixed an issue where desired delivery dates and planned release dates were not always updated correctly when a full order update was received from an external system.

Changes made in webshops or ERP systems now immediately update corresponding PeakWMS order dates.

Settings: Archived Orders No Longer Block Deletion

You can now delete carrier types, shipping methods, and other configuration items even if they were previously used on archived orders.

This makes it easier to clean up outdated configurations without affecting historical data.

Warehouse Layout: Hide Disabled Warehouses During Receiving

Disabled warehouses are now excluded from inventory visibility during receiving processes.

This provides a cleaner overview and prevents confusion about warehouse locations that are no longer active.

Orders: Reliable Reactivation When New Order Lines Are Added

We have fixed an issue where new order lines added to already packed or shipped orders could fail to generate new picking tasks.

PeakWMS now correctly reactivates the relevant workflow regardless of whether the original picking history has been archived.

Packing: Improved Selection of Load Carrier Types

We have optimized the automatic selection of load carrier types such as pallets and boxes.

Previously, the system could occasionally select unnecessarily large carrier types.

PeakWMS now chooses more appropriate carrier sizes, helping reduce wasted space and shipping costs.

Putaway: Reliable Completion When Items Are Missing

We have fixed an issue that could cause the putaway workflow to become stuck when the final item on a putaway task was reported as missing.

Putaway tours now complete correctly, even when the final item is confirmed as a zero-pick.

Orders: Better Order Details View

We have refined the order details interface to make better use of available screen space.

Unnecessary horizontal scrollbars have been removed, providing a cleaner and more stable viewing experience.

Replenishment: Correct Copy Confirmation Text

We have fixed a text issue in the replenishment configuration duplication dialog.

The correct replenishment rule name is now displayed when copying an existing configuration.

Replenishment: Correct Copying of Source Area

We have fixed an issue where the From Area setting was not copied when duplicating a replenishment configuration.

All configuration settings are now copied correctly.

Returns: Reliable Handling of Replacement Items Regardless of Synchronization Order

We have fixed an issue where replacement items could fail to be released for picking depending on the order in which return and replacement information arrived from external systems.

Replacement workflows now work correctly regardless of import order.

Returns: Correct Handling of Multiple Replacement Returns

We have fixed an issue that prevented returns from being processed correctly when multiple replacement items consisted of the same product.

PeakWMS can now distinguish identical replacement lines correctly and process all returns without errors.

POS: Improved Shopify POS Recognition

We have fixed an issue that could cause Shopify POS sales to be imported as warehouse orders during scheduled synchronization processes.

Store sales are now consistently treated as inventory adjustments only.

OpenAPI: Improved Stability for ERP Integrations

We have fixed a critical issue that could block data exchange with ERP integrations using Peak Open API.

A configuration problem in one OpenAPI integration can no longer prevent messages from being delivered to other integrated systems.

Shipping: Improved Webshipper Configuration Stability

We have fixed an issue where the Webshipper setup dialogue could unexpectedly close or refresh during configuration.

Setup information is now retained properly, making integration setup and maintenance significantly more reliable.

Picking Groups: Accurate Picking Group Assignment for Queued Orders

We have improved how queued orders are reassigned to picking groups.

Orders waiting on other picking tasks are now continuously evaluated against current picking group rules and schedules.

This ensures orders are always routed to the correct active picking group when they become available for processing.
