Last week, we were thrilled by the overwhelming response to our webinar, Maximizing Efficiency and Accuracy with Inform WMS. We covered a lot of ground—from barcode scanners and P/O receiving to order fulfillment and cycle counts. But there was one powerful feature we didn’t have time to dive into: Job Dispatcher.
Let’s take a closer look at how Job Dispatcher can help you drive greater efficiency, accuracy, and visibility across your warehouse operations.
How Job Dispatcher Benefits Distributors
Inform WMS’ Job Dispatcher gives distributors a centralized command center for warehouse task management—enabling teams to assign, track, and adjust jobs in real time. This not only streamlines operations but also reduces errors, improves labor allocation, and drives measurable cost savings.
By simplifying task coordination and increasing visibility across the warehouse floor, Job Dispatcher helps distributors:
- Fulfill orders faster: Keep customers satisfied and operations moving.
- Improve inventory accuracy: Reduce shrinkage and stockouts.
- Maximize labor efficiency: Ensure every team member is focused on the right task at the right time.

- Simple Drag-and-Drop Interface: Its intuitive drag-and-drop interface makes assigning and managing tasks a breeze. This user-friendly design minimizes the learning curve and allows for quick adjustments as needed.
- Bin Replenishments: Maintain optimal stock levels for your primary warehouse location by efficiently transferring inventory from overflow storage.
Beyond standard task assignments, Job Dispatcher supports a wide range of additional warehouse activities, including:
- Order Picking: Helps you efficiently manage the picking process to ensure accurate, timely order fulfillment.
