Description
Expiry dates, batch-serial numbers, put-away date, and quantity information are recorded whenever stock is received and can be used by the WMS to suggest best stock allocation when picking orders.
Detail Steps
WMS supports below picking strategies:
Picking Strategy | What it does |
LEXFO Last Expiry Date in First Out | Selects oldest expiry/batch first |
FEXFO First Expiry Date in First Out | Selects newest expiry/batch first |
LIFO Last In First Out | Stock most recently received will be selected for picking first |
FIFO First In First Out | Oldest stock received will be selected for picking first |
MIN | Looks for small quantity batches of stock |
MAX | Looks for large quantity batches of stock |
BTC#ASC | Batch number Ascending > Pick Batch number in ascending order (A-Z 0-9) |
BTC#DESC | Batch number Descending > Pick Batch number in descending order (Z-A 9-0) |
BESTFIT | Only picks ONE STOCK GROUP and will not split the line. If no stock group has enough quantity then pick will fail for the line and the user must MANUAL PICK the batches. |
BYSQL | This allows the customisation of the ORDER BY clause used to specify the stock record selection order to fulfill the line item. |
BYSCRIPT | This allows very detailed customisation of the PICK line by line - allowing code to executed and the PICK METHOD to change based on any set of variables.
For example you could have a different pick method per item number or have a different strategy depending on the day of the week. |
FEXFO BTC#ASC | Oldest Expiry Date Out First Batch Ascending |
FEXFO BTC#DESC | Oldest Expiry Date Out First Batch Descending |
BINASC | This allows to sort by bin lowest number |
BINDESC | This allows to sort by bin highest number |
BESTFIT ASC | Attempts to pick the LEAST NUMBER OF BATCHES for the line and will always pick the line if there exists enough stock. |
