Top Benefits of an Order Management System (OMS)
Improve Order Accuracy
Manually processing orders with spreadsheets exposes you to human error, the root cause of inventory or fulfilment issues for 62% of merchants.
This not only ruins consumer experiences (especially if the wrong product is shipped to the wrong customer), but it also causes logistical difficulties. Returns increase and margins are swallowed by rectifying the issues.
Process Orders Faster
While delivery costs are still important to modern customers, the time it takes for a product to move from order to delivery is crucial. When shopping online, 43% of customers expect next-day delivery, which retailers must achieve in order to attain repeat customers.
By unifying stock across all your inventory locations, an OMS can streamline the picking and packing process and locate the closest location with stock to the consumer. The order is send for fulfillment and goods are picked, packed, and dispatched ASAP.
Better Customer Communications
Informed customers are happy customers. They want to know the status of their order, including its present location and expected delivery date, in 97% of cases.
Merchants can connect their OMS to their CRM and communicate regular order updates to their customers. It’s this kind of openness that keeps customers from posting bad reviews all over the internet. TrustPilot reported that 77.4% of all negative reviews are caused by a brand’s lack of communication after the sale.
Go Global

Retailers 100% need to do ship-from-store. You have to utilise your inventory. From stock turnovers to improved conversion to increased sales, it’s a no-brainer, but you’ve got to choose the right partners. You need the right backend, the data flows and the right smarts that Comestri can provide to manage that, particularly if you have a multi-store environment.

How Exactly Does An OMS Work?
An OMS, or Order Management System, is the central point for receiving sales orders from all channels. Sales channels can include your website (Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, etc), Amazon, eBay, The Iconic, and more. Orders from all these channels are then fulfilled at the one time from the one location, streamlining fulfillment processes and getting orders out the door quicker!
Rather than logging into each individual sales channel or POS system to process individual orders, orders can be managed in bulk from the one location – your OMS.
There are four main elements to an OMS:
Orders
Managing sales from all channels on a single platform.
Inventory
Real-time inventory across all channels, as well as accurate forecasting to avoid stock-outs.
Fulfillment
Streamline picking, packing, and warehouse operations, as well as interfacing directly with shipping providers.
Returns
Complete end-to-end returns management, as well as reallocation of returned stock.
“To ‘never miss a sale’, we needed a truly omnichannel experience. Our product and order inventories talk to each other, so a customer can shop our entire inventory online, in store and through Click and Collect.”
