Performing RF Daily Replenishment Tasks

Use daily replenishment to restock locations with below-minimum quantity levels. You can schedule Warehouse Operation Queuing to run nightly so that location shortages queue daily for replenishment.

RF replenishment displays the following information:

The location needing to be restocked.
The location from where to pick the product to replenish the understocked location.
The quantity needed for replenishment.

The Replenishing Pick screen provides two methods for picking and replenishing:

Use a tote to transport product from location to location.
Directly move product without a tote.

Note: If the RF Enable Tote Validation control maintenance record is activated, you must scan a tote and use it to transport the product in its final location.

To perform daily replenish tasks using a tote:

From the Warehouse Management > RF Applications > RF Main Menu, select Replenish to display the Replenish Pick screen.

Note: If prompted, log on to the character-based system.

The PID field displays your User ID.

In the Br field, edit the branch to check for replenishing, if necessary.
Use the Slct hot key to select replenish tasks.

Note: Define replenishment task size in the RF Replenishment Task Size control maintenance record.

Once you have selected the replenish task, the system displays the following information on the Replenish Pick screen.

Field	Description
Desc	The description of the product needing to be replenished. The product bar code displays next to Desc.
T	The product's status, such as S for stock.
Location	The location from where you pick product.
Qty	The number of items that need to be pulled. This is displayed in the item's lowest UOM. For example: If a product's UOM is defined both by cs and ea, the system uses ea as the pick and put away quantity since ea is a lower UOM than cs. If you pick 20 ea of the product, then you put away 20 ea and not 2 cs.
Tote	The tote number displays after you scan it.
PutLoc	The location that needs to be replenished.

Go to the location defined in the Location field.
Scan the product bar code.
Scan the replenish from location.

Use the Qty hot key to change the quantity that you are picking from the location.
Use the All hot key to pick all available quantity from the location. If you select this option, replenish the needed quantity in the primary location and then relocate the rest of the product.

Scan the tote that you are using to transport the product, and place the product in the tote.

Repeat this process until you have picked all products that need replenished from their indicated locations.

After you have picked all items for the replenish task, the system displays "No Replen Qued."
