Picking Release Delivery Toolbox

This document explains how you release a delivery for picking. It also describes how to work in 'Delivery. Open Toolbox' (MWS410).

Outcome

  • A delivery is released for picking. Depending on the settings, a picking list is printed or not printed.
  • A shipment is released for picking (with a number of deliveries connected to a shipment). Depending on the settings, a picking list is printed or not.
  • Delivery document(s) may be connected to the shipment/delivery. They can be manually or automatically connected.
  • A wave number may be connected to the shipment/delivery. A wave number is a number of picking lists/picking lines connected to a wave picking list.

Delivery status is raised to 50=Picking list(s) created, delivery blocked for further additions.

The following table are updated:

  • Delivery numbers are stored in the MHDISH table.
  • Delivery lines are stored in the MHDISL table.
  • Shipments are stored in the DCONSI table.

Before you start

  • The conditions listed in Basic Settings for Dispatch Handling must be met
  • An order is created and allocated. It is not released for picking.
  • The delivery's progress status must be 05=Ready to be released for picking.

Follow these steps

Open Toolbox

  1. Start'Delivery. Open Toolbox.' (MWS410/B).

    If (MWS410) is opened from another program (DRS100, for example) via an option, a predefined information view can be displayed. Refer to

  2. Select a view for the B panel. Refer to for how to create views and sorting orders.

    Note: When you create view and sorting orders in (MWS410) and (MWS411), select only the fields required or needed. Selecting too many records can cause performance problems.

    An appropriate view, selected on deliveries, can include the following fields:

    • OQDSHM Departure time
    • OQRIDN Order number
