You can create grouping rules to organize how picking lines for released sales orders and manufacturing tasks are grouped on pick slips. For example, if you select Delivery as a grouping criteria, all picking lines for the same delivery are grouped together on a pick slip.
You can also select additional grouping attributes for your grouping rules. For example if you select Delivery and Carrier as grouping criteria, picking lines for the same delivery and carrier are grouped together on a pick slip.
To Define Pick Slip Grouping Rules:
Navigate to the Pick Slip Grouping Rules window.
Select a pick methodology.
For more information, see Defining Pick Methodologies, Oracle Warehouse Management Implementation Guide.
Enter a unique name in the Rule Name field.
Enter a rule Description if desired.
Enter an Effective Date range for the rule. The start date field populates automatically with the current date, you can change this if necessary. You can also enter an expiration date for the picking rule, however the expiration date must be after the start effective date.
In the Group By alternative region, select the following applicable parameters:
Order Number: Items assigned to this order number are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Customer: Orders for this customer are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Ship To: Orders addressed to the ship to address are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Carrier: Orders for a particular freight carrier are assigned the same pick slip number.
Trip Stop: Orders within a shipping group of deliveries are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Delivery: Orders within a particular delivery are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Shipment Priority: Orders with the same shipment priority are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Source Subinventory: Items with the same source subinventory are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Source Locator: Items with the same source locator are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Item: Items with the same part number are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Revision: Items with the same revision number are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Destination Subinventory: Items with the same destination subinventory are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Destination Locator: Items with the same destination locator are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Project: When project manufacturing is enabled, all items assigned to a project are assigned the same pick slip number.
Task: When project manufacturing is enabled, all items assigned to the same task are assigned to the same pick slip number.
Job / Schedule: All tasks you create for a job or schedule are assigned the same pick slip number.
Operation: All tasks you create for the same operation are assigned the same pick slip number.
Department: All tasks from the same department are assigned the same task type regardless of whether or not you select Job / Schedule.
Push versus Pull: All push tasks are assigned the same pick slip number, and all pull tasks are assigned the same pick slip number regardless of whether or not you select Job / Schedule.
Note: This is the supply subinventory defined on the Bill of Material.
This applies only to manufacturing tasks with supply type of pull, and push components that specify a supply subinventory and locator. Enabling Supply Subinventory also groups push and pull tasks separately, because pull tasks are assigned to a subinventory, and push tasks are not assigned to a subinventory.
This is more specific than enabling Push versus Pull because tasks that have different supply subinventories are grouped separately only if you include Supply Subinventory in the grouping criteria.
Select the desired Perform Bulk Picking option from the drop down list. The available choices are as follows:
For entire wave: At pick release, every item in a pick wave is a candidate for bulk picking.
Honor item/sub flag: At pick release, only bulk picked enabled items and subinventories are candidates for bulk picking.
No: Disables bulk picking.
