Manage Wave Picks

Overview

To use the Wave Pick function in GoldFinch, you must first enable the Whse. Pick functionality in the Warehouse. The Wave Pick function helps organize the warehouse’s daily workflow by generating one Wave Pick document that consolidates items from multiple orders ready to be picked.

Creating a Wave Pick

  • From the Sales Order list, select the orders you want to include in the Wave Pick, then click Create Wave Pick. Only allocated items on the sales orders will be added.

  • The following conditions will be checked:

    • All selected orders must have the same Warehouse.

    • All selected orders must be regular Sales Orders (not return orders).

    • All selected orders must have at least one item allocated.

  • A confirmation page will show the items to be added to the Wave Pick document. All allocated items will be grouped by Item No. and Unit of Measure, displaying the total quantity to be picked.

  • Click Create Wave Pick to finalize the process.

When this function is performed, the following documents will be created:

  • Wave Pick Ticket: Includes all items to be picked from the picking bin to the Cross Dock bin.

  • Pick Ticket: Created for each Sales Order, picking items from the Cross Dock bin to the Ship bin.

  • Warehouse Shipment: Created for each Sales Order shipping from the Ship bin.

The Wave Pick Ticket will be marked with a check in the Wave Pick field, and the Sales Orders linked to a Wave Pick will have the Linked to Wave Pick field populated.

  • Preventing Partial Shipments:

    • To prevent partial shipments, check the "Do Not Allow Partial Shipment" checkbox on the Sales Order.

    • If this option is selected, you will not be able to create a Wave Pick unless all selected sales orders have an Allocation Status of Full.

Printing the Wave Pick

The Wave Pick document will print all items and quantities to be picked from the warehouse bins and transferred to the Cross Dock bin.

Posting the Sales Order Pick Tickets

For each Sales Order on the Wave Pick Ticket, a Pick Ticket will have been created. After the items are picked from the Cross Dock bin, Post the Pick Ticket. Posting the Pick Ticket will move the inventory from the Cross Dock bin to the Ship bin.

Posting the Warehouse Shipment

For each Sales Order on the Wave Pick Ticket, a Warehouse Shipment will have been created. When the sales order is ready to ship, Post the Warehouse Shipment as normal.
