Use RF picking to perform the following types of picks:
For smaller orders, one operator picks one item at a time until the order is complete.
For large orders, multiple operators pick one order under a single picker ID, until the order is complete.
Multiple order picking – One operator picks multiple orders at the same time.
Zone picking – Several operators from different pick groups simultaneously pick one order in their zones of the warehouse.
Quick picking – Operators can stop picking the order they are currently working on to pick an order that needs immediate attention. Once they have picked, staged, and closed the quick pick, they return to the order on which they were working.
During the picking process, immediately handle quantity shortages by picking from different locations or backordering product. In addition, split picks between totes if you cannot fit all product onto one tote, or increase ordered quantities to match product package quantities.
After picking, you can stage and audit totes to ensure the orders are accurate and complete. Either close orders to indicate they are ready for delivery or pick up, or use system-directed loading to load orders onto delivery trucks.
