Goods out

If the Webshop view option is active, pressing the button will open the article list. Clicking the Shopping cart button displays the article with quantity 1 as an order position. The quantity may only be entered as an integer value. Individual positions can be deleted using the trash can button.

Finally, the entries must be saved with the Adjust position button.

Without Webshop view, the positions are entered individually, the editor corresponds to that for goods receipt lists.

Once a customer order including at least one position has been entered, the “Start order” button can be used to automatically allocate stock reservations based on the selected strategy and create corresponding transport & picking orders.

Depending on the configuration, one of the following scenarios is set as the default for the Start order function. The other option can alternatively be called up for each order via the small arrow next to the “Start order” button.

Start order for provision:
pick orders and transfer orders for full pallets are created, all of which have provision as their destination. The goods can be consolidated from the different storage areas and prepared for shipping if there is enough free space.

Start order for picking:
picking orders are created. Transfer orders for full pallets are generated only when loading starts and point directly from the current storage location of the SU to the goods out gate or loading area. The intermediate stabling on the staging area is skipped – helpful especially in case of capacity bottlenecks in the loading area.

The volume calculation for the requirement of picking and packing storage units is only initiated by Start order. The goal is always to have as few storage units in total as possible while using the most appropriate container sizes.

Only loading equipment that carries the “Suitable for picking” mark is used for picking planning. Only requirements of a customer order that are to be staged via picking are taken into account. Full pallets are therefore not taken into account!

The calculated KLE requirement is also used as a basis when setting up the pick truck. For more info on the Multi-Pick, see the chapter Transport › Picking.

Only loading equipment that bears the “Suitable for packaging” mark is used for packaging planning. All items and quantities of the customer order are taken into account when calculating the total volume.

Methodology of calculation:

• An article’s space requirements are normalized: the largest dimension (length, width or height) is checked against the KLE/VLE.
• Items that do not fit in the largest container or their master data is not complete and will be collected in an SU of the largest type.
• Articles with carton factor are also included in the calculation of the volume.

In the detailed view of the position, specifications for stock determination can be made for the respective article. Entered values, e.g. Batch, must necessarily be congruent between specification and desired stock. If there is no stock with the entered batch in the warehouse, the order cannot be started – no matching goods are available.

Manual stock allocation:
In addition to automatic scheduling, it is also possible to assign specific stocks to an order in a dedicated manner.

• Whole storage unit: A specific, whole container is to be reserved for the requested article. The processing takes place via transport
• Picking: For the requested article, picking is to be done from a specific source-SU. Processing takes place via picking

Accept shortfall:
In case of missing pieces (not enough stock available) or on manual request, positions can be closed and therefore underdelivered. This is possible for the total quantity as well as for partial quantities of the position.

Services
is possible to record additional activities to be taken into account in the course of billing. The desired services must first be entered in the course of the settlement configuration before they can be used in the customer order. Further information is provided in the chapter Settlement › Warehouse services.

Settlement
Opens the settlement for the current customer order and displays all relevant positions. Further information is provided in the Settlement chapter.
