Waving Overview

Inventory allocation is done through allocation waves. A wave template specifies rules for allocation and task creation as well as additional options for cubing and distribution to store.

The wave template will specify the rules of allocation and picking tasks.

Configuration Level - 3PL Parent Company vs. Client Company:

  1. Wave templates configured at the 3PL Parent company level can be used for any client company. Wave Templates configured at the client company level can only be used for that client company.
  2. Configuration for wave templates made at the 3PL Parent Company level will not be visible at the client company level.
    Note: If wave templates will not be shared across different client companies, configuration should be done at the client company level.
