Mobile WMS Setup Field: ”Sort Order Pick”

On the Mobile WMS Setup page, you will find the Sort Order Pick field.

This controls the sorting of Pick Order Lines when using Warehouse or Inventory Pick (Not SalesOrder)

This setting controls the sort order of pick orders. There are 3 options:

• Worksheet
• Item (Item No.)
• Bin (Bin Code)

If Work sheet is selected the order lines are sorted in the sequence defined when the order was created.

A typical usage of this is to sort the lines according to bin ranking.

Sorting by "Bin Ranking" 

Basic warehousing

Fill in field "Bin Ranking" on the Bin.

Now, Mobile WMS will sort the following according to Bin Ranking.

• Sales Order lines
• Purchase Return Order lines
• Transfer Order Lines

Advanced warehousing

Use the "Pick Worksheet" function:

• Besides using Zones and Bins.
• The Pick Worksheet can also sort by Bin Ranking.

Alternative Sorting:  "Create Pick" from Warehouse Shipment

This function generates the picks for the wanted orders.

It has a strong sorting function as well.

Prerequisites

• You are using Advanced warehousing - see Location setup

Sorting Method for Activity Lines 

Here you can select the method by which the lines in the instruction will be sorted after:

• Item
• Document,
• Shelf or Bin  (if the location uses bins, this functions as the Bin code)
• Due date
• Bin ranking (If set up)
• Action type
