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

Manual Bulk Order picklist release

Bulk Pick List Release

Picklist of Bulk Order is not automatically released in the system. Instead, order can be searched by orderId and on clicking the release picklist button, the system marks this order for picklist release and it is released in background within a few minutes.

Multi-Order pick list release via CSV upload can also be done.

• This can improve Order Fulfillment Efficiency by streamlining the Picklist release process for specific orders and prioritsing the order processing for Important Orders first.

• Users can decide for which orders the Picking should be done first and release picklist for them accordingly

SKU wise Picklist release Bulk Orders

Bulk Pick List Release

Since Bulk Order can be of huge quantities, Picklist can be released partially for order by releasing SKU wise. This can be helpful for Warehouse Supervisor if there are not enough resources to process the whole order.

• Release picklist by SKU for a B2B order to carry out priority picking of products

• Order Fulfillment Speed can be enhanced by focusing on individual SKUs, the picklists enable parallel picking of different SKUs, resulting in faster order fulfillment

Zone, Aisle and order wise picking pendency is shown on this screen

Bulk Pick Pending

This is similar to Piece Pick Pending screen, only difference being Picking Pendency is shown order wise for different Aisles.

Overall, zone, aisle, and order-wise picking pendency analysis provides valuable insights into the picking process's efficiency and helps warehouse managers make informed decisions to optimize operations. By identifying and addressing bottlenecks, reallocating resources, and implementing process improvements, they can streamline the picking process, reduce pendency, and enhance overall warehouse productivity.

Boosts productivity

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.

Packbox/ Package SKU Masters

Packing

We now supports defining Box SKU Masters for Pack boxes and Package SKUs used in B2B and B2C operations, allowing to auto-populate the Predefined Dimensions and Volumetric weight values in Box SKU Masters in OMS with the scan of box SKU/ package SKU in Omni screens.

Enables Faster order fulfillment by automating Carton SKU scan which has the provision to populate the Carton Dimensions (Length,Breadth,Height) and Volumetric weight stored in system in Carton SKU Masters. This can optimize space utilization, reduce packaging waste and minimize shipping costs.
