Configuring physical storage locations within the warhouse
...
Location Configuration
...
The location configuration screen allows uploading the names of different zones within the warehouse as well as aisles composed of storage locations. Structurally, the warehouse can be organized into zones which contain aisles which contain locations. The specification of whether an aisle is to be used for normal storage or pigeonholing (for consolidating combo type orders) can also be done here
...
Through the location configuration screen, the physical organization of the warehouse can be defined in terms of zones, aisles and locations. Zones allow arbitrary grouping of aisles that can be used do demarcate different regions of the warehouse (if needed). Creation of locations generates location ID barcode stickers that uniquely identify each location in the warehouse

Bulk Order Manual Inventory allocation
...
Outward Order
...
Bulk orders can be marked to not be retried automatically. Instead, the allocation may be performed manually by selecting the order and performing the retry.
...
Manual order retry helps where it is not desirable to automatically allocate inventory to an order. This provides a degree of control over how inventory is allocated to orders. This can also help in prioritising specific orders in scenarios where B2B/B2C operations take place along with replenishments for other fulfillment locations like stores, dark stores, etc.
...
Manual Order Deallocation
...
Outward Order
...
Items within an order for which inventory has been allocated can be manually deallocated without cancelling them. Deallocated orders, when retried, are re-allocated based on update inventory present

Pre pack staging area and Consolidation of Pack Boxes
...
Bulk Picking
...
This feature enables the functionality to create Pre-Pack Staging Areas for storing and consolidating pack boxes before packing B2B orders.
...
It can help to save time in B2B order processing of Bulk Orders with multiple Order Line items as well as processing different Bulk orders parallely by carrying out Cluster and Batch Picking of Order Line items , putting them away into cartons/boxes present in Pre-Pack Staging area locations and later on doing the Picking of cartons from Pre-Pack Staging locations reducing order lead times and improving overall efficiency.
It can improve the Order Accuracy by decreasing the error rate of dispatching wrong items or less items as once the Items are moved to Packing desks from Staging Area Pack Boxes, the Warehouse operators can do the preliminary count of total items in Pack Boxes before doing the Bulk Packing of Pack Boxes.
This can increase the Throughput as by preparing pack boxes in advance, companies can increase throughput and handle larger order volumes. Warehouse operators can focus on assembling and sealing the pack boxes, allowing for a more streamlined and uninterrupted packing process. This scalability is particularly beneficial during peak periods or when managing high-demand products.

Post Pack Staging & Handover Using Gate Pass In Increff Omni
...
Packing & Consolidation
...
We have introduced Post Pack Staging areas for B2B orders, which enable the consolidation and staging of pack boxes before the handover process to deal with any delays that may arise during the Packing to Invoicing to Handover process.
To enable the handover of multiple B2B orders together we have added the support of the gate pass feature in Increff Omni.
...
Streamlined outbound operations: Post-pack staging involves organizing and staging packed boxes in designated areas before they are loaded onto vehicles for transportation. This can help in tracking the location of each pack box and facilitate efficient loading processes. This ensures a smooth flow of outbound operations, minimizing delays and improving overall productivity.
Order verification and accuracy: The creation of gate passes in the WMS allows for proper verification and documentation of each outbound shipment. Gate passes serve as a record of the items being transported, providing visibility into the contents of each shipment. Clients can use gate passes to validate order accuracy, ensuring that the correct pack boxes are loaded onto the designated vehicles for delivery.

System to pick prior expiry product in same bin
...
Expiry
...
The system enforces picking prior expiry products in the same bin by providing pickers with detailed information during the picking process. In the picking screen, if the suggested pick item belongs to a perishable SKU, the User Interface will display the External Batch ID and Expiry Date along with the master data. This helps pickers to identify and pick items with the same SKU and batch, ensuring that items nearing expiry are picked first. Additionally, during putaway, there is no restriction on mixing multiple batches of the same SKU in the same bin, which further facilitates picking prior expiry products in the same bin.

The consolidation of expired items through a special picking process at warehouses involves segregating expired items from non-expired items to ensure proper inventory management
...
The consolidation of expired items through a special picking process provides several key benefits and value additions to inventory management:
Segregation of expired and non-expired items: This process ensures that expired items are separated from non-expired items, preventing any mix-ups and maintaining the quality of the inventory.
Efficient inventory management: By regularly clearing expired items from the warehouse, the process helps maintain a clean and organized inventory, making it easier to manage and track.
Guided picking process: The special picking process provides pick suggestions along with SKU data and batch details, making it easier for pickers to locate and pick expired items.
Minimizing losses: By marking items as Not Found during the picking process, all items in the bin for the suggested SKU and batch are marked as lost, helping to minimize losses and maintain accurate inventory records.
Streamlined handling of expired items: The process allows pickers to directly put all the items picked during the expiry-based picking in a QC Fail bin at the Recycle desk, and later put away the fail bin in an aisle where expired items are kept. This ensures a smooth and organized handling of expired items.
