Walk less in your warehouse, save meters and time

Did you know warehouse employees spend up to 60% of their working day walking? A few meters here and there may not seem like much, but over the course of a week, let alone a year, they really add up. By optimizing your warehouse layout and placing products more strategically, you can easily save time and distance during order picking.

The biggest wins come from a strategic warehouse layout

We often see pickers walking more than they need to. For example, when all products from the same brand are stored together in the middle of the warehouse, even if only one of those products is a fast mover. That means walking all the way there and back just for one item.

It’s more efficient to organize your warehouse based on how frequently each product is sold. Because the more often a product appears on a picklist, the more often someone has to walk to get it. So give those products a prime location.

Changelog: Solve webshop problems yourself and other improvements

No major updates this time, but small improvements that make your daily work a bit easier:

  • Missing orders due to an issue in your webshop? You can now fix this yourself by importing all unknown orders from the past 48 hours. And is the stock level in your webshop incorrect? You can now also send your stock levels to your webshop yourself.
  • In Rules, you can now set the condition "Order time" in 10-minute intervals. This gives you more control over cut-off times.
  • In a stock count, you can now see who created it.
  • In the user overview, you can now search.
  • When counting a location, you can now enlarge product images.

We’ve also fixed a few issues:

  • When receiving products fails, we now clearly indicate what went wrong and prevent you from having to re-enter everything. Additionally, products are no longer mistakenly linked to the same available location.
  • When importing products into an order, we now always use the correct prices from the selected price list.
  • When correcting stock from a count, we now check whether you're allowed to link locations and whether it's an exclusive location.
  • When changing a product to a type that cannot be purchased, the supplier information is now automatically cleared.
  • When an order contains canceled products, this is now shown at the bottom in the totals.

Nadine

Nadine Brouwer

“Hi, I’m Nadine. At Picqer, I help keep our daily operations running smoothly, both for the team and in our lovely office in Arnhem. With my love for structure, I support our work on financial, administrative, and organizational fronts. I really appreciate that Picqer encourages proactivity and gives you the freedom to take ownership of your responsibilities. The motto ‘Be human and do the right thing’ truly lives here.

I live in the heart of the Netherlands with my family. With a toddler and a preschooler, I don’t get much free time, but when I do, I love watching series, reading, and gaming. Winter is my favorite season. Chris Brown has been my top artist on Spotify Wrapped for six years straight. Right now, I’m in the process of decluttering my home. I highly recommend it to everyone!”

Changelog: See who moved stock and more

See who moved stock

New: See who moved stock

The stock history now shows not only how much stock was moved and where it went, but also who moved it. This was a popular request that comes in helpful when reviewing why something was moved. You can also see who last used a container. This information is, of course, also available via the API.

Other improvements

  • The stock history graph now gives a clearer view of a product’s stock over time.
  • You can now change your Picqer domain (acme.picqer.com) yourself. Useful if your company name changes, for example. More information (Dutch)
  • You can now set a webhook for cancelled picklist shipments.
  • In the API, you can now filter (purchase) orders, backorders and picklists by fulfilment customer.
  • Cancelled products are now shown more clearly on the order page.
  • The product barcode is now included in the single order export.
  • Fixed:
    • When linking a product to a location in the app, a scanned location with child locations is no longer linked immediately. Instead, all matching locations are shown.
    • MyParcel shipments with DPD, DHL and UPS are now correctly reported back to webshops. This was already the case for PostNL.
    • Shopify orders processed across multiple pick lists are now correctly reported back to the webshop.
    • Purchase orders containing compositions with own stock can now be edited again.
    • When receiving a product, the linked location is now always preselected—even if it's a bulk location.
    • You can now remove the expected delivery date from a purchase order.
    • For orders imported as draft, stock is once again correctly allocated.
    • When mentioning a colleague in a comment, the last typed word no longer disappears.
    • Dates entered without dashes are now also correctly recognised.

Looking back at the Webwinkel Vakdagen 2025

We had a great time at the Webwinkel Vakdagen! Two days full of great conversations, familiar faces, and new connections. Our purple booth felt like home, and that feeling was only amplified by all the enthusiastic visitors.

Two days of great conversations

It was so nice to talk to so many of you. Hearing how you use Picqer, the challenges you face in your warehouse, and what makes you happy. It’s always good to catch up or meet in person for the first time.

We also spoke to business owners who hadn’t heard of Picqer yet. It was inspiring to hear your stories and experiences, and we loved being able to share our warehouse knowledge and passion for Picqer with you.

Presentation and roundtable on improving your warehouse

We’re proud of our colleague Casper, who gave a presentation on how to run a professional warehouse. He walked the audience through ways to make warehouse processes both more efficient and more enjoyable, and how Picqer helps with that.

On Thursday, Casper also hosted a roundtable session where he and a group of entrepreneurs explored various warehouse challenges together. It was great to see the group dive into discussion, share experiences, and offer each other advice. Super valuable.

Thank you and see you next year!

As a team, we’re looking back on two meaningful days, filled with new insights into what’s happening in your world and the wider e-commerce community. Thanks to everyone who stopped by. We look forward to seeing you again next year!
