Every system must have at least one site, that site contains warehouse(s), locations, customers, customer products and customer's stock.

The settings for each site are independent, some settings are controlled at the site level only and others can be overridden through the warehouse, location or customer setup.

Picking

The controls in this tab are used at the point of picking or for the calculation of picking times.

Pick Days

The normal days of the week you would pick, we use this in the calculation of when to pick up the goods in order to have them delivered or collected in time, it will not stop you from picking outside of those times but it will not include times outside of this within the calculation.

Skipped Days

The skipped days are days when you will not be picking, generally bank or public holidays or stock-taking days when you wish the system to not consider it as a normal picking day.

Explanations

Picking starts / ends

What times will you pick from and until, this has bearing on the collection times and also the delivery schedule windows.

e.g. Collection order arrives 1500 with a 4 hours minimum pick lead time it would say the goods can be collected after 10.00 the following day.

Enable Split Order On Picking Screen?

Can you part pick an order at the time of picking?

BP Group by Order

On a bulk pick, group the sort order by the order first before the location.

BP Group by Location Type

On the system standard note the Bulk Pick will print a seperate page for each location type, allowing for an easier split of paper pick notes between different types of warehouse vehicles e.g. High Reach, Fork Truck, Hand Pick etc.

Rotation Selection Priority

Picking Options :

  1. FIFO (default),

  2. Location Type then FIFO

  3. Pick Location then FIFO (v6.3 onwards)

Option 1 - Picking will use standard FIFO before looking at location type, where we will pick duty paid oldest to newest then underbond oldest to newest (where those duty statuses are applicable).

Option 2 - Location Type then FIFO

If picking full pallets it will prefer the stock in the following order

Floor → Bulk → Rack → High Value → Pick

If not picking full pallets it will prefer the following

Pick → Floor → Bulk → Rack → High Value

Tip

If the system finds enough stock in a location type it will pick this based on FIFO within the location type then move to the next location type.

Option 3 - The system will Pick the stock from the Pick location first when the order is less than a full Pallet and where there is sufficient stock available in the pick location, otherwise it will jump to FIFO.

Customers using replenishment occasionally move newer stocks to the picking locations leaving older stocks in bulk/racking; the picking routine will typically pick the oldest stocks first but in this instance, we should respect the location priority before considering the length of time the rotations have been in stock.

Applies to ALL Options

If a product groups has a mandatory BEST BEFORE DATE when using FIFO it will pick the stock with the shortest date.

Warning

If looking at the PICK location (option 3) it will pick the shortest date first before anything else and will continue to fulfill from the pick location until exhausted before moving onto FIFO which then looks anywhere else for shortest date stock

For a full breakdown of how the system picks please see Picking

Flex

When switched on it will require you to verify the rotation by scanning it during the picking phase.
