General WMS
Core questions about the platform and where it fits.
It is built for suppliers, principals, independent warehouses, 3PL providers, and teams that need controlled visibility across stock, orders, and warehouse activity.
Yes. Vision Logix WMS runs as a secure web application, so authorised users can access it through a browser without installing desktop software.
Yes. The system is designed for multi-warehouse operations, with role-based access so users only see the warehouses and data they are allowed to work with.
Warehouse & Stock Control
How stock is counted, separated, protected, and audited.
Yes. Stock can be frozen for a selected warehouse, principal, or stock count scope so receiving, picking, dispatch, transfers, and adjustments cannot change the frozen stock during the count.
Yes. Stock count sessions can be scoped to a warehouse, principal, count type, and stock holding scope such as full counts, cycle counts, spot checks, damaged stock, or quarantine stock.
Yes. Count sheets are blind count sheets. They show product, barcode, location, batch, expiry, and count reference details, but not the system quantity.
Yes. Stock can be separated by status such as available, damaged, infested, quarantine, returned, hold, and expired where applicable.
Yes. Principal users are restricted to their own principal scope, and warehouse users are restricted to assigned warehouses. This is enforced server-side, not only by menu visibility.
Stock-changing workflows are designed to create movement and audit records so receiving, transfers, stock counts, adjustments, returns, and order activity can be traced.
Orders & Transfers
Order lifecycle, picking, delivery, returns, and warehouse transfers.
Orders move through controlled workflow statuses such as captured, suspended, released, picked, invoiced, delivered, cancelled, and exception states where applicable.
Yes. Orders can be suspended with a reason so issues such as pricing, stock, or customer queries can be resolved before fulfilment continues.
Yes. The system supports short picks and discrepancies, with controls to prevent invalid over-picking and to keep picked quantities visible on the order.
Yes. Delivery debrief can capture delivered, returned, damaged, and short-delivered quantities with reasons and comments where the workflow is enabled.
Transfer loads and co-loads can support grouped warehouse movement where the operational rules allow it. Access rules still prevent users from seeing principals or warehouses outside their scope.
Tasks, Tickets & Notifications
Built-in work management, support, alerts, and feature feedback.
Yes. Users can create tasks, assign permitted users, set priorities and due dates, add comments, complete tasks, reopen tasks, and cancel tasks.
Yes. Task assignment is limited to users inside the current user's organisation or assigned warehouse scope. Cross-tenant assignment is blocked server-side.
Yes. The notification bell shows task reminders, ticket updates, feature suggestion updates, approval alerts, and system notifications.
Yes. Users can log tickets, add comments, upload screenshots or documents, and track progress. Vision BI support can manage the support queue.
Yes. Users can submit feature suggestions. Vision BI can review them, mark them for the roadmap, suggest custom development, reject them, or close them with decision notes.
Security, POPIA & Hosting
Access control, hosting, audit visibility, and data protection.
Vision Logix WMS is designed to support POPIA-aligned operations through role-based access, audit trails, controlled user permissions, secure hosting practices, and responsible data handling.
POPIA does not automatically require all systems to be hosted only in South Africa. Cross-border data handling must be managed properly with appropriate safeguards and agreements.
Access is controlled through ASP.NET Identity roles and tenant scope. Vision BI, principal, and warehouse users have different permissions and data visibility rules.
Important workflow actions such as order status changes, transfers, stock counts, task updates, ticket changes, and approvals are logged where audit tracking has been implemented.
The system uses authenticated access, role-based permissions, tenant-scoped queries, HTTPS in hosted environments, database controls, backups, and restricted administrative access.
Billing & Support
Commercial terms, onboarding, custom work, and support coverage.
Billing depends on the agreed package, warehouse footprint, operational scope, and any implementation requirements. Vision BI confirms commercial terms during onboarding.
Some packages may include standard modules and user allowances, while additional users, modules, integrations, or storage-heavy features may be priced separately depending on the agreement.
Setup, onboarding, data migration, integrations, EDI work, and custom development may be quoted separately when they fall outside the standard platform package.
Standard support is available Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 17:00. Emergency system support is available for critical platform issues.
If a feature is useful to the standard platform, it may be considered for the roadmap. If it is specific to one organisation, Vision BI may recommend a separate custom development quote.
