Pick

Use the Pick function to record the items you are going to pick from inventory and apply the quantities and bin information to the order transaction. Pick items from their storage bin(s) and move them to a packing bin from which they are packed and shipped.

Workflow

There are three main actions performed during the picking process:

  1. Pick: pick the released item(s) from the storage bin into a working bin
  2. Move: move the picked item(s) from the working bin to a separate packing bin
  3. Pack: pack the item(s) from the packing bin, update the picked quantity in the source transaction, and print the packing list

These actions can be performed in separate steps or together in one combined step. The Pick and Pack Togethercheck box on the Finished Pick window determines if the pick/move/pack actions are combined into one step or performed separately. The Finished Pick window opens when you click Finished Pick on the Pick screen.

Process A: The Pick and Pack Together check box is clear (No).

Start --->Release Items--->Pick/Move--->Pack--->End

The picking and moving steps are combined into one step. Packing is a separate step.

Process B: The Pick and Pack Together check box is marked (Yes).

Start --->Release Items--->Pick/Move/Pack--->End

The picking, moving, and packing steps are combined into one step.

Note: If a customer does not allow partial shipments, you will receive a warning message.

  3. Select the Item ID you want to pick from the drop-down list or the grid.
  4. Select a Bin from which you will move the item. This is the inventory storage bin.
