Overall process flow

Overall Process Flow

The WMS Pick process supports the pick process in the warehouse based on a Warehouse Pick document generated in advance in Business Central. After selecting a Warehouse Pick document, the Warehouse Pick Header is updated, including the user ID of the mobile user as Assigned User.

Next, enter the item code for each item to pick. Optionally, depending on the location setup, enter a bin based on the available bin inventory.

Next, enter the quantity to pick. This quantity is added to the already handled quantity and then compared with the ordered quantity. If the quantity to pick plus the handled quantity plus the outstanding quantity exceeds the ordered quantity, an error message appears.

After accepting the quantity to pick, the Warehouse Pick line is updated. Optionally, enter a lot number or serial number if the item is lot/serial-controlled.

Finally, the pick document is registered and the related Warehouse Shipment is updated as well.
