Picking
Two modules are available for picking, covering different ways of working:
| Module | Tile | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Pick List | "Pick orders" | Bundle multiple sales orders into a single pick list |
| Warehouse Activity | "Process warehouse documents" | BC warehouse documents (pick/put-away) |
Pick List
Bundles multiple released orders into one consolidated pick list – ideal for walking a single tour through the warehouse and fulfilling several orders at once.
Workflow:
- Select orders – mark multiple released orders (multi-select).
- Consolidate – the app combines identical items across all orders into a total quantity per item number.
- Pick – work through the consolidated list; the orders are released for warehouse activity.
Pick List Mode
In the Setup, Pick List Mode determines whether a separate pick list
is created per order (Single) or several orders are picked together (Batch/wave picking).
Warehouse Activity (warehouse documents)
Works on the BC warehouse documents (warehouse activity, e.g. picks). The badge shows open documents for the terminal's location.
Workflow:
- Select document – pick it from the list or search by the document's barcode.
- Lock – the document is locked for the terminal so no one works on it in parallel.
- Scan items – scan the lines; the app verifies item and quantity.
- Register – register the document (posts the warehouse activity in BC).
- Release – the lock is cleared again.
Locks prevent duplicate work
While being processed, the document is locked for other terminals. If a device crashes, the lock expires automatically after the Lock Timeout; the administrator can clear it immediately via Cleanup Expired Locks.
Which module when?
| Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Picking based on existing BC warehouse documents | Warehouse Activity |
| Picking multiple orders together without a warehouse document | Pick List |
