Batch Method

You normally create pick suggestions by batch to process pick requests on a regular basis. You can compensate for a large volume of sales orders by creating pick suggestions several times each day. You can also compensate for a large volume by running the Picking Location Selection program in Subsystem Parallel Processing. You typically run batch programs during off-peak hours when more system resources are available.

While processing pick suggestions, the system excludes all locations that do not have adequate available inventory or inbound inventory.

Note: If you are using license plates, the system does not consider inbound quantities.
