Customization CR1397: Picking Ticket by Bin-Zone

Customization CR1397

Picking Ticket by Bin-Zone

Description of Need:

ACME stores some products inside the building, and others are kept outside. To make Sales Fulfillment more efficient, they would like the SOP Picking Ticket to group bins by inside vs. outside, and to page break between the two.

Description of Solution:

Navigation: Cards >> Inventory >> Bin Zones

Table Description automatically generated

The Bin Zone Setup window is used to “group” bins by physical location. This information is used to group the bins when printing a SOP Picking Ticket. Bins will be grouped by zone, with each Zone together on a separate page of the Picking Ticket. Zones will apprear in alphanumeric order on the report. As shown above, “IN” would appear on the first page and “OUT” on the second.

Field Function
From Bin Enter a starting Bin, or the starting value for a range. This does not need to be an existing bin. For example, there could be a number of bins that begin with B (such as B1, B2, BZ12, etc.) The entire range of B bins could be covered by entering “B” and “BZ999”0.
To Bin Must be equal to or greater than the From Bin. To specify a single bin, such as “C1”, enter it in both the From and To Bin fields.
Zone Enter a Zone using up to 5 characters. This is an alphanumeric field (letters and numbers only). This is a free text entry field.

The Bin Zones window will not prevent you from creating overlapping bin ranges. If this happens, the Zone for the bin will be determined by the first range (alphanumerically) that includes the bin.

If a bin is used for SOP Fulfillment that is not assigned a Zone, the zone will be blank, which will be together with any other unassigned bins on the last page of the Pick Ticket.

Printing the Pick Ticket grouped by Bin Zone will only work when using the BIN SEQUENCED option on the Sales Document Print Options window.
