Pick Requests through Manufacturing Systems

You can set up manufacturing system so that the creation of a parts list triggers the creation of a pick request for the necessary parts.

Some items that in the manufacturing process might be out of stock temporarily, so they are not eligible for picking. The items that are ineligible for picking can be backordered.

After you create a pick request using manufacturing systems, you process the pick request normally through the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Warehouse Management system. After you create and confirm location suggestions, you also update the parts list in the manufacturing systems. Finally, you reduce the on-hand quantity in the From location and increase the on-hand quantity in the manufacturing area's To location where manufacturing employees retrieve the parts and build the product.

The system identifies manufacturing pick requests as originating from a work order instead of a sales order.
