  • Release picklist strictly by SLA time. This will help warehouse team to priotise oders based on first SLA.

Guided Picking :
System guides automatically to the next location eligible for picking in the same Aisle as per location wise distance

Piece Pick Item

The system recommends the next location/bin to visit for picking when scanning first location in an aisle. It suggests the SKU to pick, allowing the picker to choose any item of that SKU from the same location/bin. Currently, the Item ID is associated with the released Picklist order.

Pickers receive picking suggestions in a forward manner within an aisle. They do not zigzag or move backward-forward in an aisle.

During the creation of locations in the Location Configuration Screen, distance information is provided. This allows the system to determine the sequence of locations and provide picking suggestions.

  • Guided picking helps pickers by showing the bin, location and product to pick.

  • Reduce the distance travelled by the operator during picking by sending him in a forward direction ensuring all allocated products are picked simultaneously.

  • It also reduces errors, improves efficiency, and utilizes resources effectively.

Image and other master details of SKU are shown on the screen to let pickers identify the same SKU items in the bin.

Piece Pick Item

This acts as a visual aid for pickers to identify items of the same SKU in the bin. Also, stickers present on the item have SKU mentioned with the last three digits in bold and big font, just like the SKU mentioned on the screen and this makes it easy for pickers to only match the last three digits of the SKU.

Product images are shown on screen to ease and improve picking productivity.

Express Picking for priority orders or orders whose CPT is strict and close

Piece Pick Item

Express Picking has two definitions: Express Picking CPT and Priority-based picking. When the Express Picking CPT is defined for a marketplace, orders that fall under the same day SLA are released for picking. Priority-based picking allows the system to pick items based on the priority given to the channel, with higher priority items being picked first.

Narrow down picklist by showing only urgent/express orders for a channel.

This feature helps in optimizing the picking process, ensuring urgent orders are fulfilled efficiently and improving overall warehouse operations.

Audit based Not Found

Piece Pick Item

Not Found can be marked if an item of SKU suggested on screen is not present in the given bin.
If Picker can't find any item of SKU shown on the screen, he can mark SKU as not found which leads to marking all items of the SKU present digitally in the bin as LOST.

It helps in inventory accuracy and avoid excess orders.
