Pick Request & Return Assignments

Pick Request & Return Assignments

WithoutWire uses a concept called assignments. Assignments determine the pool of users that have access to work on tasks such as picking. Orders are distributed to the requesting users in a round-robin fashion.

WithoutWire can be set up in two modes:

Auto-Assignment – 

This configuration automatically assigns new picks to the pool of users who have permissions to pick. Users with appropriate permissions can unassign from the Web Console even if auto-assigned is on.

Manual Assignments – 

This configuration setting requires a user with appropriate permissions to assign picks through the Web Console.

Assign Picks/Orders via console

Using the Pick Request & Returns console, you can assign orders by first selecting “Unassigned” in the Order Status dropdown.

Click the Filter button.

At the next screen select the checkbox beside each order you wish to assign and click on the Assign button.

Select the users you want to assign using the arrows and click the Update button.

Picking Assignments by Order

This feature is found in the Outbound Tab > Pick Request & Return Assignments by Order Number.

Here you select the order you want to assign from the Select Order drop-down box.

Next, select the users you want to assign the order to with the arrows and click the Update button.

You can assign all users or select multiple users to an order. When a user selects the order on the handheld no other user will have access to that order. Having multiple users pick partial orders is possible using zoning.

Picking Assignments by User

This feature is found in the Outbound Tab > Pick Request & Return Assignments by User.

Here you select the user that has access to the picking functions using the Select User drop-down box. 

Next, select the Orders to assign to the user using the arrows and click the Update button.
