WIP Pick Review

This program lets you create picks for job allocations for warehouses that use the Work in Progress Picking and Issuing feature, (i.e. the WIP picking cycle in use setup option is enabled against the warehouse).

Exploring

Things you can do in this program include:

  • Search for and view picks that are released for picking.
  • Create a pick for a job.
  • Add allocations to an existing pick.

  • This program is accessed from the Program List of the SYSPRO menu:

    Program List > Work in Progress > WIP Picking > Transaction Processing

This is a bin transfer movement type that applies when you complete a pick. The quantity picked is transferred from the original location, which could be in the storage or picking areas of the warehouse, to the destination bin.

For Work in Progress Picking and Issuing, the destination bin can be defined against the operation within the Structures and Routings program, or when generating the pick note within the WIP Picking Options program.

This is a report that details the items required for picking and where to locate them.

A picking slip can only be printed once a pick has been created. Thereafter, you can print the pick slip at any time until it is complete.

This is the process of finding and extracting products from a warehouse bin that are used in the production process.

This is common in manufacturing or assembly environments where products move through various stages of completion. Work in Progress Picking and Issuing ensures that the necessary components or materials are available at each stage of production to prevent delays and keep the workflow smooth.

Starting

You can restrict access to the eSignature transactions within a program at operator, group, role or company level (configured using the Electronic Signature Configuration Setup program). Electronic Signatures provide security access, transaction logging and event triggering that gives you greater control over your system changes.

Controls access to the creation of picks in the WIP Pick Status Change business object.

Controls access to the addition of sales order lines to existing picks in the WIP Pick Status Change business object.

Controls access to the maintenance of pick statuses in the WIP Create Pick business object.

Controls access to the maintenance of the status for pick lines in the WIP Create Pick business object.

You can restrict operator access to programs by assigning them to groups and applying access control against the group (configured using the Operator Groups program).

The following configuration options in SYSPRO may affect processing within this program or feature, including whether certain fields and options are accessible.

The Setup Options program lets you configure how SYSPRO behaves across all modules. These settings can affect processing within this program.

Setup Options > Configuration > Distribution > Inventory

  • Multiple bins
  • Associate serials by bin
  • Fixed bins

  • Record movements for bin transfers

    This is not a prerequisite, but used for auditing and evaluation purposes.

Setup Options > Configuration > Distribution > Inventory > Show Warehouses
  • WIP picking cycle in use
  • Auto issue WIP pick
  • Accounting for shortages
    • Process as stock adjustments
    • Process to lost and found warehouse
  • Pick allocation override
  • Lost and found warehouse

Solving

Your system is not configured to use the Fixed bins facility.

You need to enable the Fixed bins setup option (Setup Options > Configuration > Distribution > Inventory).

No. A pick can have multiple lines and multiple picks can be created per job allocation, but a pick can only be linked to a single job.

Yes, a job can have multiple picks.

This enables lean manufacturing as it allows stock to be moved to the production line as required.

Yes stock items from multiple bins and warehouses can be grouped together on one pick.

All the picked items will then be transferred to the same destination bin, which is the production bin.

  • If the material is not stocked in the same warehouse as the manufactured parent item, an immediate warehouse transfer is created once the pick is completed, i.e. the wip pick status is set to C - Picked.

  • If multiple warehouses are used as the source location, then the WIP picking cycle in usesetup option against those warehouses must be enabled to generate a pick. If this isn't enabled, the issuing of the stock will be done using kit or manual issues.

Yes the amount at the Quantity to pick field within the WIP Pick Review program can be edited inline. The quantity displayed defaults to the quantity that is required, but can be changed to be less than the required amount, to facilitate multiple stock allocations.

The Quantity required field indicates the total quantity that must be picked.

The Quantity in picking field indicates the quantity that has already been allocated and picked.

Using

  • Columns in a listview are sometimes hidden by default. You can reinstate them using the Field Chooser option from the context-sensitive menu (displayed by right-clicking a header column header in the listview). Select and drag the required column to a position in the listview header.

  • Press Ctrl+F1 within a listview or form to view a complete list of functions available.

Referencing

This displays data according to the selection criteria indicated. The function is enabled when you first load the program and then by selecting the Change Criteria option.

This lets you change the currently configured review criteria.

Field Description

Options

 

Create single pick for all selected

This lets you create one single pick for the selected every line selected within the Pick Review listview.

This option is only enabled if you have selected one job or assembly warehouse in the Warehouse selection area against which the WIP picking cycle in use setup option is enabled.

If you select more than one warehouse, a pick is created for each job allocation.
