Read full review Pros Automation approval flow is by far the best feature as it allows a user to set their own checkpoints and users to approve and reject orders. Being able to track and find orders in the system makes it a robust application to allow for quicker delivery and receipt of POs. At the same time it helps vendors get paid quicker since everything can be tracked quicker. User interface built for end users who do not go into Lawson everyday. This interface shows only what a requester would require to place an order similar to Amazon.

Oracle Warehouse Management cloud is able to handle all our data. It has a lot of parametrization inside - when we add a new store, we are able to do so easily, no matter its size. It's flexible - adding new information, stores, or changing information is easy to do. It's scalable - again, as we add or change stores, we are able to do so with this software. Read full review Cons The User Interface that everyday SCM users access is out of date and needs updating. Luckily in version XI the entire user experience is being enhanced to fix this issue. Tracking of POs and Receipts and invoices are difficult for end users to research. They usually would require lawson access and/or need to get a buyer involved. Luckily there are third party companies that built add-ons for lawson to allow end users to track this info. Out of the box reporting doesn't have a great look to it. Many folks from finance do not like the appearance of the reports. Again Lawson has finally listened and now allows users to customize the look of those reports. Read full review We can enter manual entries into Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud and all manual entries do not have proper control. It performs slow when it must extract the data in large amounts. Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud doesn’t maintain sales return entries because it’s not an order management system. In order to use this feature, we need to configure or deploy another solution, which is Order Management System. We cannot consider it as a demerit of Oracle Warehouse Management Cloud but for a single feature, we cannot deploy another module. .

Read full review Alternatives Considered Lawson SCM has been the leader in the space for a while. All of the new competitors don't have enough experience or enough customers to fully understand the needs of our company. Lawson continues to work with their customers for ideas on new enhancements and is evident in the latest offering with a redesign of how SCM makes it easier to track and automate the SCM part of the business
