Pick Print Eligibility (WPPE)

Purpose: Use this menu option to determine whether the system will include picks for a specified order in the next pick slip generation run for the selected pick slip generation template.

The system determines which pre-generated picks to include in the pick slip generation run, based on the pick slip selection criteria specified on the Streamlined Pick Slip Generation Screen for the selected pick slip generation template.

Pick Print Eligibility Screen

Use this screen to enter the order and ship to number you wish the system to evaluate for pick print eligibility when running Streamlined Pick Slip Generation (WSPS) for the selected pick slip generation template.

How to display this screen: Enter WPPE in the Fast path field at the top of any menu or select Pick Print Eligibility from a menu.

Field	Description
Order #	The order number and ship to number the system will evaluate for pick print eligibility. The order number is validated against the Order Header table. The order ship to number is validated against the Order Ship To table. To be eligible for pick print, the order and order ship to must be in an Open status and not locked by a user. Order #: Numeric, 8 positions; required. Ship to #: Numeric, 3 positions; required.
Pick Gen Template	The pick slip generation template from Streamlined Pick Slip Generation (WSPS) the system will use to determine if the pre-generated picks for the specified order will print. Required.

Instructions:

1. Enter the order number and order ship to number you wish to evaluate for pick print eligibility. If you leave the Ship to blank, the system defaults a ship to number of 1.

2. Select the pick slip generation template you wish to use to print picks for the order.

3. Select OK.

The system:

• If a pick exists for the order that is in a status other than G Generated No Authorization, H Generated Has Authorization, or V Void, the system displays the error Pick already printed for order. Note: The system displays this error even if other picks exist for the order that ARE in a G, H, or V status which could be eligible for pick slip generation. You must process the printed pick through Billing before the system evaluates the other picks for the order.

• If picks do not exist for the order, the system determines if the order is eligible for pick slip preparation.

- If the order is not eligible for pick slip preparation, the system displays an error message indicating the order is not eligible for Streamlined Pick Slip Generation (WSPS) because a pre-generated pick does not exist for the order; see Pick Slip Preparation Errors.

- If the order is eligible for pick slip preparation, the system submits the Pick Gen Refresh periodic function to create pre-generated picks for the order and continues to the next step. See Selecting Order Lines for Pick Slip Preparation and Applying Pick Slip Preparation to an Order for more information on when an order is eligible for pick slip preparation and the updates that occur.

• If a pre-generated pick exists for the order, the system determines if the pick will print using the selected pick slip generation template.

- If picks for the order will not print using the selected pick slip generation template, the system displays an error message indicating the order is not eligible for Streamlined Pick Slip Generation (WSPS) because it does not meet the criteria defined for the selected pick slip generation template; see Pick Errors.

- If at least one of the picks for the order will print using the selected pick slip generation template, the system displays the message Order meets criteria. However, if a Maximum number of picks has been defined for the pick slip generation template which could prevent the pick from being selected for print, the system displays the message Pick eligible but Max # of Picks limit exists.

Note:

• The system displays the first error encountered for the order; other errors may exist on the order which could prevent the order from being included in the pick slip generation run. Correct the error and run Pick Print Eligibility again to determine if there are any other reasons the order would not be included in the pick slip generation run.

• If one of the picks for the order is eligible for Streamlined Pick Slip Generation (WSPS) using the selected pick slip generation template, the system considers the order eligible for pick slip generation, even if other picks for the order will not print. Run pick slip generation for the eligible pick and then run Pick Print Eligibility again to determine why other picks for the order are not eligible for pick slip generation.
