Warehouse Robotics for Acumatica
CyberCore connects Acumatica to warehouse robots for put-away and picking. Robots put received stock away into the best bins, and Acumatica records the transfer to each bin. For shipping, robots pick along the most efficient path and bring product to staging for packing, replacing walking to pick, or driving a forklift in bigger warehouses. The shipment is confirmed in Acumatica when the carrier issues the tracking number. Live in a real warehouse for years.
Robots work best when the warehouse process behind them is right. We start with your Acumatica workflow, then connect the automation.
When the warehouse runs on walking
In a manual warehouse, people cover the aisles twice: once to put received stock away, and again to pick it for orders. As volume grows, that model gets harder to scale.
Walking or driving to every pick
Pickers walk to each location themselves, or in bigger warehouses drive a forklift there.
Put-away that makes picking harder
Stock that goes wherever there's room can mean longer trips every time it's picked.
More orders, more trips
Adding volume often means adding people or extending shifts just to keep up.
Disconnected automation
Warehouse equipment that isn't tied to the ERP creates a second set of instructions for your team to manage.
Records that don't match the shelf or the truck
When a bin move or a short ship isn't captured, your ERP says one thing and the warehouse did another.
Two workflows, both tied to Acumatica
CyberCore connects Acumatica to warehouse robots for put-away on the way in and picking on the way out.
Put-away
Receive and confirm
Your team receives the goods and confirms they got the right product in the correct quantities.
Received into Acumatica
The stock is received into a receiving location in Acumatica.
Robots put it away
The system triggers the robots to come pick it up and put it away into the best bins, for example keeping similar items stored together and using the closest empty bins.
Transfer recorded in Acumatica
In Acumatica, the put-away transfers the stock from the receiving location to the bin it ended up in, such as A1-S2-103.
Picking
Pick tickets come from Acumatica
The work starts in your ERP. Robots take the pick tickets from Acumatica.
Robots pick on the most efficient path
The efficient path logic comes from Acumatica WMS: up one aisle, picking from both sides, and back down the other aisle. The robotics system decides which robot takes which path and can split one path between two robots, improving on that logic based on how many robots are available at that time.
Product arrives at staging for packing
The robots bring the product to the staging area, where your team packs it.
Shipment confirmed in Acumatica
When the carrier issues the tracking number, the shipment is confirmed in Acumatica. Short ships write back at that point, so only what shipped is confirmed.
What it connects
The integration ties your warehouse robots to Acumatica at the points that matter.
Receiving in Acumatica
Your team confirms the right product in the correct quantities, and the stock is received into a receiving location in Acumatica.
Robot put-away into the best bins
The robots are triggered to pick up received stock and put it away, keeping similar items together and using the closest empty bins.
Bin transfers in Acumatica
Each put-away is recorded in Acumatica as a transfer from the receiving location to the bin, such as A1-S2-103.
Acumatica pick tickets
Your ERP stays where the picking work begins. Robots take pick tickets from Acumatica.
Robot picking on an efficient path
Robots follow the efficient path logic from Acumatica WMS: up one aisle, picking from both sides, back down the other. The robotics system decides which robot takes which path, and the robots bring product to staging.
Staging and packing
Product arrives at the staging area, where your team packs it for shipment.
Shipment confirmation in Acumatica
When the carrier issues the tracking number, the shipment is confirmed in Acumatica, including any short ships.

Help choosing the right robots
Not every robot fits every warehouse. We help you choose the best robots for your location and use case, based on how your receiving, put-away, picking, packing and shipping work in Acumatica.
Your location
the warehouse you're automating and how it's set up today
Your use case

Your Acumatica process
how the robots will fit with pick tickets, packing and shipment confirmation
It's practical guidance to help you make the right choice before you invest.
Automation works when the process is right
Robots can move product quickly. But a warehouse automation project should be designed around the entire business process, not the hardware alone. Fast automation connected to a poorly designed inventory process can simply create bad transactions faster.
That's why we start with Acumatica. Acumatica's native warehouse management supports barcode-driven receiving, putaway, inventory movements, picking, packing, shipping and inventory counts, along with single-order, wave and batch picking. Our job is to make sure the robots fit into those workflows correctly, so stock lands where it should, the right product reaches your packing team, and only what actually shipped is confirmed in Acumatica.
- Acumatica at the center: pick tickets originate in your ERP, and shipments are confirmed there
- Process before hardware: we look at how receiving, put-away, picking, packing and shipping work today
- Automation where it makes sense: the goal is to improve the warehouse process at a reasonable cost, not to install the most advanced technology available
Why connect Acumatica to warehouse robots
Your ERP drives the work
Pick tickets come from Acumatica, so the robots work from the same orders your team sees.
Put-away into the best bins
Robots keep similar items stored together and use the closest empty bins.
Every put-away recorded
Acumatica records the transfer from the receiving location to the bin the stock ended up in.
Efficient pick paths
The path logic comes from Acumatica WMS. The robotics system decides which robot takes which path and can split one path between two robots, based on how many robots are available at that time.
No walking or driving to every pick
Robots replace walking to pick yourself, or driving a forklift there in bigger warehouses.
Shipments that match reality
The shipment is confirmed in Acumatica when the carrier issues the tracking number, with short ships written back, so only what shipped is confirmed.
