RF Picking Control and Authorization Parameters

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

Control Parameters

Guidelines for Usage

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 Make Short Pick A REVIEW Status Location

Set to Y if a location is short product and you want the system to change the status to review. The system will also generate an immediate cycle count for the location.

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.
