Chapter 14: Assigning Pickers to Batch (MRPA)
Purpose: The Pick/Pack Verification program assigns pickers to a batch of orders by the billing batch number and cart number, or by the pick control number. These values are defined in the System Control file and determine whether you are using cart/bin picking, the size of the cart, etc. These values are described below:
• Billing batch number is assigned to each pick slip run and is used to stage pick runs.
• Cart number represents the batch pick slip list for each cart.
• Pick control number is a number assigned to a batch of picks and allows you to track picks throughout the warehouse.
The Pick Slip file contains the picker and batch number, etc. and the information that displays at the Picker Assignment screen. This information includes any outstanding batch numbers; the cart and control number; the number of picks printed and assigned; the elapsed time, the order number, ship number, and the ship via code.
How to display this screen: Enter MRPA in the Fast Path field at the top of any menu.
