Picking and Shipping Orders in a Manual Warehouse Overview

The system contains sequence logic that optimizes picking material for orders, and tracking programs that help you track orders through the warehouse from picking to delivery, confirming each stage in your warehouse's process. Confirming stages using the Warehouse Picking Confirmation Queue during the picking and shipping process eliminates potential shipping errors.

Pick Location Assignments

When the system receives a sales order or a transfer order, it provides the pick locations on the pick ticket using the picking allocation logic described in Automated RF Pick Allocation Logic. The system allocates picks to send pickers to as few locations in the warehouse as possible to fill an order.
