Master Pick

With eGrow's Master Pick function, items from multiple orders can be combined into batches to be picked together. This provides product handlers the visibility of all items needing to be picked for the day and improves efficiency by only having to go to locations once and retreiving all product for multiple orders and loads at the same time. Once a Batch is created, allocations for all items can be reviewed from one screen and orders can be opened in a popup window to adjust any allocations as needed. Once allocations have been verified then the Master Pick By Division form can be printed for directing staff on what to pick for the batch and from what inventory locations. The Mater Pick Summary form is also available which will show the total quantity by item size and a summary of all quantities by sales order. Printing labels/tags is also possible from a Batch.

To create a Master Pick Batch, perform the following steps.

1. Navigate to Shipping, then Master Pick.
2. On the top taskbar click New Batch and then Proceed.
3. Utilize the provided filters to search for item matching the selections for Ship Date range, Sales Order numbers, inventory Location, Division, Order Category, Customer Type, Ship Method and Size options.
4. Click on Search to view all items matching the selected filters.

To review allocations on a Batch and print forms, peform the following steps.

1. Navigate to Shipping, then Master Pick.
2. Find the desired Batch number in the left list, highlight it and click View Batch on the top taskbar. Note that double clicking on the batch number will open the Filter screen with the default settings and you can set new filters to adjust what items are returned to the batch.
3. Each order item will display the qty allocated and from what inventory location. Any items still auto allocated to Overcommit or to [System] or Projection will be highlighted in light grey and these will need to be updated before picking is possible.
4. Highlighting a row and clicking on the Open Sales Order link on the bottom bar will bring up the order in a popup window and will allow for manually allocating.
5. To print form instructions, click on the Print menu in the top taskbar and choose Master Pick By Division.
