Wireless Picking Control and Authorization Parameters

The following control maintenance records should be reviewed and set as needed before picking with RF.

Control Maintenance Record

Guidelines for Usage

Auto Display Comments Attached To Line Items In RF Picking

Set to Y to display line item comments after the user enters a product. If you also have the RF Display Hazard Description And Print Pick Ticket and the Cut Product Comment Type control maintenance records set to Yes then general comments, cut comments, and hazard comments also display.

Create New Generation For RF Recv Verify Overages

Select how you want the system to handle overage amounts when receiving items using the RF Receive Verify process.

Lock Tote To Order In RF Picking

Set to Y to prevent mixing orders on the same tote.

Once a user associates a tote with an order, the system displays the tote number in the Tote field for that item to pick. The system then verifies the proper tote when users scan the tote bar code.

If you set this control maintenance record to Prompt, the system warns the user that the tote is being used for another order. The user can override the warning and use the tote.

RF Allow Staging Of Individual Totes

Set to Y so that users can stage the tote at any point while they are picking the order.

For example:

If the tote becomes full before a user has picked all items on the order, the user can stage the tote and make it available for auditing. The user can then continue picking the rest of the order.

If this control maintenance record is set to N, users must wait until they have picked the entire order or the entire part of the order assigned to their pick group before staging the tote.

RF Automatically Select Next Order To Pick

Define whether you want the system to select the picks for the user.

RF Enable Check For B/O Of Ship Complete Order

Assign levels 0-2 to define whether users can backorder items on a ship complete or call when complete order.

If you assign level 2 to this control maintenance record, users must be assigned the RF.BO.SHIP.COMPLETE authorization key to backorder items on ship complete or call when complete orders.

RF Verify Pick Qty

Set to Y to prompt users to enter the quantity picked at a location.

Store Serial Numbers By Location

Set to Y if you want the system to store serial numbers by location.

The stored locations become the assigned locations for such serialized products. This location-assignment directs users to put away product in the assigned location.

During picking, the system directs users to pick product based upon the assigned location for the serial numbers using first in first out (FIFO) logic.   

RF Stage - Only Display Scanned Tote

For each branch, indicate if you want to display information on the pick ticket for only the scanned tote.

RF Stage - Require Staging Location And Package Qtys

Set to Y if you want the system to force users to enter staging location and package quantities before exiting the stage screen.

RF Stage - Ship Vias That Do Not Require Package Qtys

Set to Y if you want to display only the ship vias that do not require package quantities to continue the staging process.

Note: Only applicable when accessing the stage screeb using the menu path: Other > Whse Mgmt > RF Applications > Misc > Staging

RF Pick - Display User Defined 1 or Order Picks Remaining

For each branch, select how you want to indicate the number of picks remaining on the Pick in Process screen.

Order Picks Remaining - To keep track of the picking process, choose this option. By doing so, the person doing the picking will be able to see the progress. On the WMS Picking page, you will find the OrdPicks field, which will show the total number of remaining picks assigned to the picker. As the picker completes each pick for the order, the number in this field will decrease.
