Reversing picks

You can return picked products to stock for one reason or another. These steps return a product to the location from which it was removed during the picking process. These steps also return the lines to the original wave so they can be edited or canceled, if required.

  1. From the RF Main Menu, select Order Picking.
  2. Select Undo Options.
    If you select Undo Line, proceed to step 10.
  3. Select Undo Order.
  4. In Undo Pick by Order, specify the order number.

    You can scroll to the right to view additional information on the browse. Order numbers begin with ‘o’ and contain eight digits plus a two-digit suffix. For example, the system assigns an order number of 5061-00. In TWL, the number is o0000506100.

  5. Press Enter.
  6. Verify the lines on the order and ensure the cartons, totes, pallets, and everything associated with the order is accounted for. Select Yes.
  7. Scan the location to which you are returning the products. This location should be a staging location; all lines on the order are assigned to that location. The products must be put in their dedicated storage locations at a later time. If you cannot find all the containers that are associated with the order, then cancel the task.
  8. Scan the pallet. A question is displayed: Unpick Zero Picked lines as well?
  9. Select Yes to unpick or reset the pick records that were originally allocated. This option puts the pick records into an intermediate stage so that you can pick the lines again without undropping the order.
  10. If you selected Undo Line in the Undo line - Order Picking window, then scroll to the right to view additional information.
  11. Scan one of these IDs to identify where the picked material is located:
    • Carton ID
    • Tote ID
    • Pallet ID
    • Cart-Bin ID
    • Pick ID
    Note: The Undo Line functionality can be used on a truck pallet with the order in Loaded stage.
    Note: You can use TWL RF to unpack or unpick a line on an order. An order may be assigned to a host-managed carrier and a line unpick is performed. If so, then the WL Transaction Inquiry PAK transaction is moved to Inactive when the TWL order is moved back to In_Pick status. When the order is finalized again in TWL, a new WL Transaction Inquiry PAK transaction is created with the correct updated quantities from TWL. Multiple orders may exist within a container, and one of those orders may have been shipped. If so, then the undo-by-line action is blocked, similar to the undo order action for host-managed carriers.
  12. After the order data is retrieved, the Pick Detail window overlays the Undo Picking window. The products picked for the order show on the browser window. Drill down on a product to view detailed product information.
  13. Select the product to return to stock. The line item details show on the screen. The location can be overridden if you are placing the product in a different location. Scroll to the right to view additional information on the browse.
  14. Specify the quantity you are unpicking. The location and pallet ID, if applicable, show on the screen. If the location was defined as a pallet location, then the pallet from which material was picked is displayed in the Pallet field.

    When you press Enter from the Pallet field, the cursor activates the Item field. You can scan the next product to be returned to stock.

  15. Repeat steps to unpick additional products. When all lines have been unpicked, a message is displayed: There are no picks left to undo. Select OK.

    After the products have been unpicked, the transaction detail shows a positive and negative pick, which offset each other.

  16. Use the back button in the RF browser to return to the Order Picking Main Menu.
