Terminology

  • Tote Picking
    • Pick for multiple orders/customers and then separate the orders/customers by the Tote ID's during the pick process. A Tote is basically any entity that can be used to hold goods i.e., boxes, railcars, pallets.
      See Tote- Picking & Shipping
  • License Plate
    Anchor
    licenseplate
    licenseplate
    • This is a new concept in Pack & Ship and built on top of existing "Tote Picking" functionality in Mobile WMS.
    • When totes are picked they becomes a License Plate with the information about the goods inside and can be processed during packing and shipping with a single barcode scan.
    • With license plates, a lot of different information can be associated with a license plate. In Pack & Ship we focus on package information.
    Cloud Print Service
    • An add-on to the Mobile WMS. It simplifies the process of using Zebra printers to print labels in the warehouse. See Print Labelon package information.

This feature requires Cloud Print Service or  Report Print

  • The label is printed from the action Menu
  • You can print License Plate labels as part of the Pick process with unique ID's
    • Using the unique ID's is especially useful when picking directly into the boxes you intend to ship, like a cardboard box for example


Tip: Print a bunch of labels before you pick and simply use them "as you go"

  • A "License Plate" contains multiple lines of "License Plate Contents"
  • "License Plate Contents" lines can be of type Item or License Plate
  • During the packing process, you can reorganize goods and license plates, including creating "multi-level license plates" to reflect goods in boxes being put on pallets, including keeping track of the structure and still being able to track the content of the individual boxes.
