Order Management
Order Search Panel
The order search panel can be used to search orders by order Id and other parameters like channel, channelOrderId etc. Apart from viewing order details one can also mark orders on hold to restrict packing of a particular order using the toggle button for the order. One can also see orders that are on hold or packed in the system here.
...
Picklist Flow
Release Pick list
The first step of order processing is to release pick list. There are two ways of releasing the pick list. One is to let the system select the orders for which pick list needs to be released or upload a file with the order for which pick list needs to be released.
Release Pick list - Select Orders
The steps are as follows:
Select client and number of orders to be released. Selecting a channel to search orders is optional.
The orders which are fulfillable will be displayed on the UI in increasing order of the required by time or the SLA.
One can choose to release all selected orders or some of them.
On clicking on release pick list one will get the option to release pick list SKU wis or order wise.
After that a pop up with the option to print the pick list will come.
...
Release Pick list - Upload Orders
The steps are as follows:
Select client. Selecting a channel to search orders is optional.
The orders for which pick list need to be released should be added to a csv and uploaded here.
On clicking on release pick list one will get the option to release pick list SKU wis or order wise.
After successful release of the pick list a pop up with the option to print the pick list will come.
...
Search Pick List
This screen allows to search for pick list based on date, client, channel, pick list statuses and pick list Id. The pick list that gets generated in Increff USP is a paper based pick list.
Pick list can be download from this screen in the form of csv or pdf format. The csv file downloaded here can be used to feed picking data to another WMS or system which will help in picking the products.
...
Serialisation Of Inventory
Configuration
In Increff USP one can configure upto two attributes to be printed on the sticker. Here for example we have taken the attributes to be PO No and Pick list Id. A client can choose any series of idntifiers here for reconciliation or other purpose.
...
Printer Settings
In Increff USP one can configure printer to print barcode stickers as well. Here there are two tabs one to configure the printer to print the barcode sticker and another tab to configure the sticker to be printed. Here the sticker says external Item Id as the client can choose to have their own system generated item Ids as well.
...
External Item Id Generation
There are three ways of external Item Id mapping possible in Increff USP which are as follows:
Generating serial Ids in bulk from Increff USP system itself and print the stickers.
Client can upload the unique serial codes that their system might have generated in the form of a csv and then print the stickers.
Increff USP can generate the serial Ids one by one and paste it on the items.
Bulk Generating Item Ids Using External System Ids
The process is as follows:
Select client.
Enter the attribute values for the sticker (PO No and Pick list Id in our case).
Upload the external Item Ids as a csv file.
The attached printer will print the stickers.
After this the stickers can be pasted on the item Ids.
Note: At this stage there is no mapping in the system to know which item Id is corresponding to which EAN.
...
Bulk Generating Item Ids From Increff USP
The process is as follows:
Select client.
Enter the attribute values for the sticker (PO No and Pick list Id in our case).
Enter the quantity of stickers needed.
The attached printer will print the stickers and it will also be available for download on the screen.
After this the stickers can be pasted on the item Ids.
Note: At this stage there is no mapping in the system to know which item Id is corresponding to which EAN.
...
Map To Item
The process is as follows:
Select client.
Enter the attribute values for the sticker (PO No and Pick list Id in our case).
Enter the quantity of stickers needed.
The attached printer will print the stickers and it will also be available for download on the screen.
Pick List Sorting For Bulk Printed Items
At the time of sorting of orders after picking one can choose to map the client SKU with the generated external Item Id. One can enable the option from the configurations menu.
...
The process is simple one would need to scan pick list Id, client SKU Id and generated external Item Id.
...
Note: Tagging items with external Item Ids has the benefit that if any item is found lying on the floor there is a physical identification for that item. For example PO No and pick list Id on the sticker will help to know exactly why the item was taken out of storage and for what purpose.
One By One Item Id Generation From Increff USP
The process is as follows:
Select the client.
Enter the attribute values for the sticker (PO No and Pick list Id in our case).
Enter the client SKU Id
The attached printer will print the sticker.
In this method the client SKU mapping will also happen at this stage itself.
At last one can scan the external item Id generated.
...
Pick List Sorting For One By One Item Id Generated
The items generated in the above fashion already have the client SKU mapping done so when the items have been picked they can be sorted based on the external Item Id itself using the below screen.
...
Order Consolidation
For multi line items at the sorting step one will have to scan the pigeon hole also to consolidate order line items. The process is as follows:
Scan picklist Id.
Scan client SKU Id.
If external Id mapping is also enabled from the configurations one will have to scan the external Item Id as well.
After that for a multi line order one will have to scan the pigeon hole as well.
...
Note: Increff USP is not managing the pigeon holes shown for sorting here but only using them. The Ids and management of the pigeon holes is not being done by Increff USP. Also consolidation of orders can be done in the client system also independently.
Packing
The packing of the order can be done in three ways:
Scanning pick list Id and client SKU Id.
Scanning using the external Item Id.
Scanning using the order Id and client SKU Id.
Once the packing is done one will be able to download the invoice and shipping label from the packing screen. There will be a popup to scan the AWB number. This will finish the packing step.
...
