When you manually create or edit a pick from the Reservations and Picks user interface, the destination subinventory and locator default based on the demand document type. For sales order and transfer order demand types, it's common for these fields to contain the default staging subinventory and locator for the item. You can create picks for movement requests from a sales order, internal order, and shipment request. You can also create picks for replenishment or requisition movement requests.
