????????? ??????? ??????? (concluding post of the series)

Having seen some 15 metrics already let’s look at some more and by no means they are less important as coming in the end. They may not be directly related to warehouse but of your business and its strategy, but remember they can have adverse impact on your overall business and warehouse cannot remain untouched from it. Hence i am including them here

16. ???? ?? ?????? – The rate of return gives you a chance to determine why customers return things. Knowing why lets you solve the problem of too many returns quickly.

17. ???? ????? ??????????? – How quickly do you receive payments from customers? Fewer days outstanding means your accounts receivable department is efficient and collects money quickly. Though this may not be directly related to warehouse operations however it does have an impact on many facets indirectly. So this metrics of business also impacts warehouse as well.

18. ??????? ???? ??? ???? – The freight cost per unit talks about transportation costs. Try bundling orders together to lower your shipping costs.

19. ?? ???? ???????? ???? – Your on time shipping rate leads to happy customers who are more likely to order more items from you in the future. When this number is high, you have a great relationship with a transportation firm.

20. ???? ?? ???? ????? ???? – The cash to cash cycle time measures days between paying for something coming into your warehouse before it gets shipped out. When this time is lower, your materials spend less time in the warehouse.

Now for sure many of these metrics needs resources to be managed, but in today’s time WMS have been instrumental in providing all these data in a click. However still to look at the data and derive meaning out of it and then to take actions we need experts in warehouses and there is seriously a shortage of such experts in the warehousing domain in the market.
