Wave planning

Orders that share a truck or a cut-off are grouped into a wave and released to a picker. Assign, start and pause waves here; W-1016-07 is the live one, driven by the handheld further down.

One walk to the slot, three orders served

SO-1001 wants 20 crates of MILK-500, SO-1002 wants 15, SO-1003 wants 10. The picker sees 45 across two slots. The system still knows which 20 belong to whom.

the older batch can't go to Modern Trade or E-com, so it all goes to the GT order

Each unit is reserved once. The picker sees one quantity per slot; underneath, every order keeps its own line, so a short pick lands on a specific order instead of vanishing into a total.

The handheld, and what confirming actually does

Scan the location, scan the product, enter the quantity, confirm. Wrong shelf or wrong item stops you. A short quantity can only be saved through the exception flow. The panel on the right shows the stock, reservation and order splits change as you go.

Exceptions with a paper trail

Wrong SKU, wrong location, batch mismatch, short pick, damage, unreadable barcode. Each one moves from Open to Investigating to Resolved or Escalated, and nothing gets deleted.
