Dynamic Pick Bin Zone and Bins created
Have decided which products are going to be dynamically picked
Steps
Part One: Creating the Dynamic Pick Bin:
Search Bin Zones
Click "Add Bin Zones"
Enter a Dynamic Pick Bin Zone name
Set the Bin Zone type as "Pick"
All other fields can be left as the default values
Click "Add Record"
Click the "Subtables" button and select "Bins"
Click "Add Bins"
This is the Dynamic Pick Bin. Enter a Name, Location, and Capacity for the Bin
Click "Add Record"
Repeat steps 8-10 to add more bins if needed
Part Two: Decide how you will designate which products are going to be Dynamic Picked:
Option 1: Product Pick Type: Choose this option if you would like these set products to be dynamically picked. This can also be combined with Bin Zone or Route as well.
Search for Product Pick Types
Click "Add Product Pick Type"
Enter a name for the Product Pick Type
If you want all of a ProductType to be Dynamically Picked, search for the Product Types Table. Otherwise, skip to step 7
Find the Product Type you want to be Dynamically Picked and edit the record
Change the product Pick Type to the new Product Pick Type that was created in Step 3
If you want to designate specific products instead of a product type, search for the "Inventory" table
Filter to the Products you want to be Dynamically Picked
Click "Columns" to add the "Product Pick Type" column
Click "Show all records" at the bottom of the page
Click on the Product Pick Type column and click "Edit Column"
Swap the top record to the newly created Product Pick Type
Click on the "Product Pick Type" column again and click "Fill Down"
Click "Save Records"
Option 2: Bin Zone - Choose this option if you want a specific Bin Zone to be dynamically picked. This can also be combined with a Product Pick Type or Route Type as well.
Note: You can make multiple Pick Rules in Part Three if you want to have multiple Bin Zones Dynamically Picked. This just requires you to decide which Bin Zone you want to be Dynamically Picked or create a new Bin Zone and edit the Bins in that Bin Zone that you want to be Dynamically Picked.
Part Three: Creating the Pick Rules -
Search for "Pick Rules"
Filter to the Location you are going to be Dynamically Picking at
Review the Pick Rules to determine priority. Your new Pick Rule should be larger in priority than your normal Pick Rule process.
Find the Pick Rule that it would normally hit and note the Priority
Click "Add Pick Rules"
In the "Priority" field, enter a higher priority (lower number) than the Pick Rule you found in Step 3
Enter a Route Type if you only want a specific Route Type to be Dynamically picked
Enter the new Product Pick Type if you set one up in the previous part
Set Minimum Cases or Pick Unit if you only want to Dynamically Pick under those conditions
Enter the Bin Zone you want to Dynamically Pick from if you want to designate Dynamically Picked products to a Bin Zone
Set the Pick Method to how you want the product to be picked
Set the Dynamic Pick Line Bin Zone to your newly created Dynamic Pick Bin Zone
Repeat steps 3-11 for any additional Bin Zones you want to Dynamically Pick From
