About the Fields

  • Location (L) to create a pick list with a location sequence.

  • Material (M) to create a pick list with a material sequence.

Include Comments? checkbox...

  • Mark the box to include WO Comments.

  • Unmark the box (default) to exclude WO Comments.

When finished making entries to the fields...

  • Click run process button to run the process.

  • Click new/clear form button to clear entries.

The resulting pick list is organized by bill number and sorted by operations steps either by location or material depending on the selections made in the report sequence step. The Work Order Pick List reports Committed and Available quantities that exclude the Required quantity that is to be picked for a component. This provides an easy evaluation of the quantities available to fill the immediate requirements. This means that the Available and Committed quantities displayed on the Pick List will not match those displayed on the Warehouse Master form and this is easily reconciled:

  • The committed quantity (the Com'd column) represents the Warehouse Master's Total Committed minus the component's required quantity (the Req'd column).

  • The available quantity (the Avail column) represents the Warehouse Master's Available plus the component's required quantity (the Req'd column).
