Using Update Pick List

The Update Pick List option allows the actual shipped quantity and lots assigned to sales order line items to be updated based on individual pick lists generated in Shipping Papers. Each pick list is assigned a control number when it is printed, and is placed in the update pick list Select A List window which displays when the Update Pick List option is selected. The Update Pick List option is only available if the Change Control setting in Shipping Options is set to Yes.

By using the Update Pick List option, sales orders can be updated as the information for each department and pick list is entered. The status of the pick lists can be monitored using Dispatching so that pick lists can be updated accordingly.

The selection window is not date sensitive; however, shipped pick lists for invoiced orders are deleted during the Close End Of Day process. The Select A List window shows all pick lists, sorted by pick list number, with the newest list at the top. Associated data is also displayed, such as the pick list control number, route, department, ship date, and status.

Pick lists that have a status of Open are unshipped. Pending lists are partially shipped and shipped lists are fully shipped. An order's status will be updated to Shipped or Ready when all the items on a sales order are shipped.

Note: An order may have items on more than one pick list and the status is not changed to "ready" until all items on the sales order have been shipped.

If an item was changed, deleted or shipped using the Shipping option after the pick list was generated, the quantity shipped will default as the ordered quantity on the pick list and can be changed using Update Pick List.

Using Update Pick List:

1. When you first enter the Update Pick List option a Select A List window will appear with the following options:

Select the pick list to update by scrolling to it and pressing Enter, or choose SELECT BY NUMBER and enter the pick list reference number.

If there are no pick lists to choose from, the following message will appear: "No Pick Lists found !!! Space Bar to Continue". You must have created a sales order and printed a pick list from Shipping Papers for it to appear and have a pick list reference number.

The Update Pick List window will display in the same sort order as the original pick list.

2. Command options appear:

 

CollapsedShip – Select Ship to specify the actual quantity and lots shipped for each line item on the pick list.
CollapsedCOOL – Select COOL to assign or change the country of origin identity for items that are strict or loose COOL and customers that are strict COOL
CollapsedUpdate – Select Update to save the entries made in Update Pick List.
CollapsedPrint – Select Print to print the updated pick list.
CollapsedExit – Select Exit to return to the Select A List window.

 

Note: When all items on a list are shipped, the status of that pick list will be updated to "shipped". A shipped pick list can still be changed until the sales orders are invoiced.

Note: A line may not be shipped or edited in Update Pick List if the line on the order was shipped in Sales Orders or Shipping. If a line on a pick list changed, an asterisk (*) will be placed next to that line in the Update Pick Lists screen. The shipped quantity cannot be changed. It must be changed in Shipping. See Shipping for more information.
