What we use to deliver custom warehouse software
Tools and platforms we typically use, and the systems it connects to. The final choice is made against your systems, budget and team.
Custom Warehouse Software in the UAE: what is included
Shyphan builds custom warehouse software in the UAE for 3PLs, distributors, manufacturers and e-commerce fulfilment centres that need more than stock counts.
Bin-level locations
Every rack, shelf and bin gets a barcode. Stock is known by exact location, so pickers go straight to it, and cycle counts check one bin at a time without stopping the warehouse.
Directed putaway
On receipt, the system suggests where each pallet or carton should go based on product, size, temperature needs, expiry and free capacity, so fast movers sit near dispatch and space is used well.
Optimised picking
Single, batch, wave or zone picking with walking routes sorted by bin sequence, and scan confirmation at every pick, cuts both walking time and the number of wrong items sent to customers.
Labels and packing
Carton, pallet and shipping labels print on ZPL label printers, packing stations verify items by scan, and courier labels are generated through carrier APIs right at the pack bench, without retyping addresses.
3PL client billing
For third-party logistics warehouses, storage by pallet or cubic metre, handling per movement and value-added services are captured automatically and billed per client under each contract's rates, with 5% VAT and TRN on every invoice.
Client portal
3PL clients and branches log in to see stock, place outbound orders and download reports, reducing the email and phone traffic that eats into the warehouse team's day and leaving a record of every request.
The systems it plugs into
Real screens from the platforms we implement. Yours are configured to your entities, processes and KPIs.

Executive KPI dashboard in Zoho Analytics
Leads, conversions, revenue, expenses, profit, tickets and satisfaction on one board, drawn from Zoho CRM, Expense and Desk. Your software reads from and writes back to screens like this one, so nothing is re-keyed.
- Bin-level locations
- Directed putaway
- Optimised picking

Sales dashboard in Odoo
Quotations, orders, revenue and average order value with the monthly trend, built from live Odoo data. The same software connects to Odoo in exactly the same way.
- Labels and packing
- Heat and temperature zones
- Free zone and mainland flows
What changes in the UAE
The local rules and realities we design for before go-live. Rules change, so we re-check the current position at scoping.
Heat and temperature zones
UAE summer heat makes temperature zones important for food, pharma and cosmetics. The system can restrict products to chilled or air-conditioned zones and record which zone stock was held in.
Free zone and mainland flows
Warehouses in designated zones handle goods with different VAT treatment from mainland sites. The WMS records inbound source and outbound destination so documents and your accountant have what they need.
On site where it counts
Warehouse projects need time on the floor. We deliver from our RAK Free Trade Zone office and spend site-walk, pilot and go-live days in person in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah or other emirates.
How we deliver custom warehouse software
Phases, indicative timing and what is delivered in each. Scope is fixed and priced in AED before we start.
Site walk and mapping
We walk the warehouse, map zones, racks, bins and flows, time current tasks and agree the target process and a fixed AED quote.
Process and device design
We design receiving, putaway, pick and pack flows, choose scanners and printers, and prototype handheld screens with floor staff.
Build and integrate
Task logic, bin management, labels and dashboards are built and connected to your ERP, online store or client systems through APIs.
Pilot and go-live
We label bins, load stock by location, pilot one zone, fix issues and then roll out across the warehouse with floor training.
Tune and support
We review pick rates and errors, refine slotting and rules, and support devices and software under an SLA.
When custom warehouse software is the wrong answer
A custom WMS is too much for a small store room or a warehouse shipping a few dozen orders a day. Odoo Inventory with its barcode app, or Zoho Inventory, covers bins and scanning at far lower cost. Custom pays off with high volumes, 3PL billing, unusual storage or many client integrations. We will price the packaged route alongside if it could fit.
How we handle it: We implement Zoho, Odoo and Dynamics 365 and build AI and custom software, so our written recommendation can point you to a simpler option, or to doing nothing yet.


A UAE team you can meet in person
That is our team at Zoholics Dubai 2026. We deliver Zoho, Odoo, Dynamics 365 and custom projects from our Ras Al Khaimah office with remote delivery across all seven emirates, in English and Arabic, and we run workshops on site in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah when a project needs it.
