    1. The "Create Pick" function can be used
    2. The "Pick Worksheet" can be used to generate the pick orders based on criteria like customer, zone, etc.

The purpose of the filter is to limit the number of orders sent out to the mobile device. In the standard configuration the user can filter on:

  • Location
    The user can select a specific location or select All to see all locations

    Note: 
    The locations available to the user, correspond to the locations the user has been set up to use on the warehouse employee page in Business Central.
    The default location is the first entry in the list.

  • Assigned User ID
    Here the user can choose
    • All - to see everything
    • Only my orders - to see only orders assigned to them
    • Mine & Unassigned - default

      Note: It is possible for Partners to add/remove filters on this screen by using the Extension API.
      The filter can be opened at any time, on the order list screen, by clicking the filter icon in the top right corner.

Note: It is possible to register more than one bin. The quantity for each bin is registered. When the registrations are posted in Business Central the line is automatically split. 


Take Bin Calculation

Picking directly on sales orders, transfer orders or purchase return orders, take bin is selected by this priority:

  1. Item Availablity - where can the full quantity be picked
  2. Bin Ranking is respected

This can override the order line take bin selection.


Picking according to FIFO & FEFO

The picking instruction used in Mobile WMS is based on what is configured and set up in Business Central.

In Business Central, some configurations can enable the FEFO strategy, but FIFO is not a standard functionality.

  • Please refer to your Tasklet Partner for further clarification if you wish to clarify possible picking strategies.
