Tote- Picking & Shipping

Description

The Mobile WMS app can be used to register Tote shipping when the "Enable Tote Picking" is selected in the "Mobile WMS Setup".

Project

The background for this function was to be able to create one shipment and one pick for multiple customers and then separate the orders/customers by the Tote ID's.

How to enable Tote functionality

You have to activate "Enable Tote Picking" on Mobile WMS Setup.

 

Using the "Tote per" -setting

This effects how the mobile will suggest using the same tote, for lines to the same destination.

There are three different ways of collecting the Tote ID:

  • Destination No. - Tote ID's per Recipient Customer

  • Source No. - Tote ID's per Sales Order

  • Whse. Document No. - Tote ID's per Warehouse Shipment document

Note: Posting between registrations will clear the tote suggestion.

Conditional Tote Picking

If for some reason you only wish to Tote Pick certain orders, it is possible to enable/disable Tote Picking on specific Warehouse Picks.

There are three different values for the "Tote Picking Enabled"- setting on Warehouse Picks.

  • Default

  • Yes

  • No

"Default" will use and also show the setting from Mobile WMS Setup. In the below case "Default (Yes)"
