JAIX WMS - Measure Operations

Measure Operations

The Measure Operations screen in WMS can manage the workflow of picking measured units stored within the Warehouse.

Setup

Location Setup

Measuring Area Location

Set up Bulk Stack Locations for the Measuring Area(s). This could be either an in and an out location, or just a single location dependant on the required workflow. Print location labels as required to display at the Measuring Area.

Outwards Bins

Outward bins can be set up if required. If Custom Pick Workflows are enabled for a product and a user scans an Outwards Bin when prompted for the Next location, the Pick will confirm instead of relocating.

Product Setup

To enable Relocations of products from the SmartSCAN devices within the picking process Custom Pick Workflows will need to be enabled for products.
From the Product Record open Site Options

• Enable Custom Pick Workflows
  • When enabled a product scanned from a pick docket will ask for the Next Location instead of confirming the pick straight away. Products can be moved as many times as required to fulfil the workflow requirements.
• Auto Confirm Full Picks
  • When a Pick is to fully exhaust the quantity of a License Plate it will auto confirm upon scanning instead of asking for the next location. (Custom Pick Workflows must be enabled before Auto Confirm can be enabled)
