Assigning Wireless Pick Priority

If you want to ensure that higher priority orders are worked on first, assign a hierarchy to the ship vias for those orders. When operators access orders to pick on their wireless devices, they can view each order's priority and then select accordingly.

Ship vias are assigned during implementation. Assign pick priority to ship vias in the following:

Priorities defined in Branch Maintenance override those defined in Ship Via Maintenance. Priorities defined in Ship Via Pick Priority Maintenance override those defined in Branch Maintenance.

 To assign Wireless pick priority to orders:

  1. Define the ship via codes used by your company.

  2. Assign pick priorities to ship vias in each branch.

  3. From the Warehouse Management > Warehouse Maintenance menu, select ShipVia Pick Priority Maintenance to display the Ship Via Pick Priority window.

  1. In the Branch field, enter the branch or select from a list of branches, as needed.

The ship vias for the picks display in order of priority, as defined in Branch Maintenance for the displayed branch.

  1. In the Pick Priority column, enter or edit the priority number for each ship via, as needed.

Zero or a blank field is the highest priority and nine is the lowest priority.

Note: You can assign the same priority to multiple ship via codes.

  1. Save the priorities and exit the window.

The Pick Select screen and Warehouse In Process queues display the picks according to the priority assigned to them.
