Sales Entry Pick Tickets Report overview
Function acronym: OEEPP
Use this report to print pick tickets so that the products can be picked from the warehouse and staged for shipping. Optionally, you can print Integrated Barcode pick labels or cartonization package labels. Run this report after a sales order is created, and you have optionally sent an acknowledgment to the customer.
You can print pick tickets automatically from Sales Order Entry and Sales Entry Shipping Feedback Report through this function. You can also print pick tickets with Sales Entry Back Order Fill Report after an order is filled.
A temporary lock is placed on orders until picking is complete. Because pick tickets can be printed from multiple functions, the lock ensures that the pick tickets are printed only once. If the Sales Entry Back Order Fill Report or Sales Entry Pick Tickets Report does not finish processing, the user that created the order can unlock the order in Sales Order Entry.
Printing pick tickets
You can only print pick tickets for Stock Orders (SO), Blanket Releases (BR) and Counter Sales (CS) order types. Printing pick tickets changes orders from Stage 1 (Ordered) to Stage 2 (Picked), unless the total shipped quantity on the order is zero. If the stage is already Stage 3 (Shipped), it is not changed. Pick tickets cannot be printed for orders that have been invoice processed.
If Line Ship Complete is selected for a line item and these conditions are met, a pick ticket is not printed for the line:
- The customer or ship to accepts back orders.
- The line cannot be filled in its entirety.
When you run the pick ticket report, the shipped quantity for a Line Ship Complete line is set to zero and the line is included on the back order. The status of the Line Ship Complete option is copied from the original order to the back order. The shipped quantity on the back order is updated with the shipped quantity value from the original line. Stock is re-allocated to the line if stock is available after the Sales Entry Processing Back Order Fill Report is run.
You can use one of these methods to print pick tickets for Return Merchandise (RM) order types:
- Print the print tickets from Sales Order Entry
- List the RM order on the Sales Entry Pick Tickets Report
If a pick ticket is printed for an order with Stage 1 (Ordered), the quantity for each product on the order is subtracted from the Reserved quantity and added to the Committed quantity in Product Warehouse Product Setup-Costs. The same updates to Inventory Control occur for each component of a build-on-demand kit. If the order is in Stage 2 (Picked), only those lines that changed on the order are reprinted. Any type of change qualifies the lines to be reprinted.
If the shipped quantity was increased since it was first picked, specify Yes for the Print Changes Only option to include only the difference on the reprinted pick ticket. The Reserved and Committed quantities are not affected by orders being reprinted. The quantities appropriately in Sales Order Entry. If the shipped quantity decreased since the first time it was picked, and you specify Yes for Print Changes Only, the new quantity prints.

Reprinting pick tickets
You can reprint pick tickets multiple times. If you print pick tickets more than one time, REPRINT is printed on each subsequent pick ticket. If the order was complete, all lines print and the newly added lines are distinguished with an asterisk (*) for Ship Complete and Tag and Hold orders so they can be picked. If the order is not complete, the newly added line items are printed. This table shows the values to specify for options on the report to print specific lines on the pick tickets when working with Ship Complete orders:
Print requirements | Ship Complete Handling value | Print Changes Only value | Explanation |
---|---|---|---|
A full packing slip when the last item on the Ship Complete orders is received | P - Pack | NA | |
New lines and new receipts each time the order is changed | S - Stage | Yes | Assists in staging the line item with the rest of the order that is awaiting shipment. When receipts come in, only the changed lines and quantities are printed. When the last lines are received, the pick ticket prints for only the last receipts. |
Lines and quantities for the received products only | B - Both | Yes | When receipts come in, only the lines and quantities for the received products are printed. When the last lines and quantities are received, the pick ticket prints and a full packing slip prints when the order is ready to ship. |
Complete packing slip for an order that is ready to ship | F - Pack if Full | NA | A complete packing slip prints for a Ship Complete order with all lines ready to ship if this is the first time the packing slip has been printed. If the order contains return lines, they are included. If a packing slip has been printed before for this order and you indicate Pack if Full, Both is the default value for this field. |
If you print a range of orders, the pick tickets that were previously printed are excluded, unless changes were made to the order. In this case, the changes that were made are included on the reprinted pick ticket. To reprint a pick ticket, specify Yes for Enter a List of Order #’s and then specify the order number on the list.
Serial/lot
If serial or lot numbers were allocated for a product or kit component, they are printed under the product line on the pick ticket. If comments and notes exist, you can specify to print them on pick tickets and invoices on the respective records. If the product is a build-on-demand kit, all the components print on the pick ticket.
Customer product cross reference
When more than one product cross-reference record exists, if one is a customer product cross-reference and another is a non-customer product cross reference, an extra line with the customer product cross-reference prints on acknowledgments, pick tickets, and invoices when the non-customer product cross-reference is entered in Sales Order Entry. The Product Extended Product Cross Reference Setup customer product cross-reference is printed below the line that prints for the non-customer product cross-reference.
Pick ticket format
You can print pick tickets in standard or non-standard formats. The standard format includes the customer number on the heading page. You can also print all the headings on the pick tickets or suppress printing them. If you do not print the headings on the pick tickets, the document name is printed so you can identify the document. If you have custom, preprinted forms, suppress printing the headings. Select the format in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Printing.
Use the Pick Ticket and Transfer Order option in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Printing to print pick tickets by row section of bin location, product, or line number. Your selection may alter the order the line items were entered in Sales Order Entry. When Receipts or Always is selected in Reservation Type in Product Warehouse Product Setup, the difference between the ordered quantity and the available quantity is displayed in the Qty From Receivers section on the pick ticket. When you generate the Purchase Pre-Receiving Report, the order number is displayed below the Inventory Reserved Against Receipts section to expedite the receiving process.
There are several conditions where the shipped quantity may equal zero, such as back orders, non-stocks, will call orders, and transfers. If the shipped quantity is zero, there is nothing to pick. Select the Print Pick Ticket Line Items When Quantity Shipped is 0 option in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Printing to print line items where the shipped quantity is zero. If the option is not selected, the lines are not printed but the total of the lines are printed at the bottom of the pick ticket.
Select the Print Bulk Pick Ticket Cover Sheet option in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Printing to print individual pick tickets and one bulk pick ticket. If you specify a range or list of order numbers, all matching line items are combined and printed as one line on the bulk pick ticket. If a product is a build-on-demand kit, the components, but not the kit itself, print on the bulk pick ticket. Both the kit and components are printed on the individual pick ticket. After the entire quantity is picked, it must be divided again and distributed back to the individual orders. Bulk pick tickets apply each time you print more than one pick ticket. Review the options to ensure that the print sessions produce the desired results.
External and internal stand-alone comments are printed directly below the product number according to their sequence number. Subtotal lines are not printed on pick tickets.
Rush lines
Orders with line items that are designated as rush require special processing. When you print pick tickets for rush orders, either by themselves, or with other pick tickets, expedite them immediately. Accelerated processing can be achieved through these methods:
- **RUSH** is displayed at the top of the pick ticket to instruct warehouse personnel to fill the order immediately.
- Rush pick tickets print first, before any other pick tickets.
- Select Yes for the Print Rush Orders Only option.
Direct order lines
Line DOs can be printed on pick tickets if you select Yes for the Print Drop Ship Lines option. You also must select Print Pick Ticket Line Items When Quantity Shipped is 0 in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Printing. This message is included with the DO lines on the pick ticket: Will be Drop Shipped From an Alternate Source
Even if you do not print line DOs, the header fields that are related to the pick ticket are updated just as if a pick ticket was printed. This includes the stage code, picked date, picked time, count, update type, and print pick setting.
Just in time deliveries
Pick tickets control the Just in Time order disposition. After the order goes through all other processing, other than printing, it can optionally go through the back order creation process. When Ordering (1) is selected for Create OE Back Orders At Stage in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders-Back Orders, and a back order does not already exist, the back order stage for a Just in Time order is set to 2 on the order header. This is also used to determine when the order should be invoice processed. When an order with a disposition of Just in Time, only the line items within the promised date and the JIT Leeway in Product Warehouse Description Setup range print. The stage on the line item is updated to Stage 2 (Picked).
Specify a promised date for JIT orders in the Print Order thru Promised/Requested Date option in Sales Entry Pick Tickets Report. The Days to Allow Forward option is used with the Saturday and Sunday options in Product Warehouse Description Setup to determine if the order is ready for picking. To determine whether to include a line on a Just in Time order, the JIT Leeway on Product Warehouse Description Setup is added to the header date.
If a Just in Time order was picked but not shipped, and alterations were made to cause another line to be picked, lines that are ready for picking are included with both the range and list. Return lines on a Just in Time order is picked in the same manner a regular stock order line is picked.
Filling orders with pending receipts
The document print functions for pick tickets, warehouse transfers, and kit work orders validates what is currently in the warehouse to be picked and what can be picked from pending receipts. If you fill orders with pending receipts, print the picking-related documents before you print the associated pre-receiving report and before you remove any items from the receipts and manually allocate to orders.
If a warehouse product record indicates you can reserve inventory against pending receipts, the document includes bin locations and quantities to pick from stock inventory and the quantities to pick from pending receipts.
If you use bulk pick tickets, you include the breakdown of picking quantities and locations.
Scrap returns
When you process scrap returns, this message prints in the detail area: SCRAP RETURN/CREDIT.
Pick tickets for service orders
If Do Not Print Service Pick Ticket in SA Administrator Options-Integrations-Service Management is not selected, you can print picket tickets for service orders for planned material transactions from Service Management.
Print ticket printing and picking is based on the promised date at the header and line levels of the service order in Distribution SX.e. The date at the header level is used to qualify orders for pick ticket printing, based on report options. The date at the line level is used to determine if a pick ticket for the line should be printed now or in the future. If a service order includes a line that should be picked in the future, the service order can be included on the report more than once. These dates on a service order correspond to the promised dates on the service order:
- Start Date of SRO: Promised date at the header level
- Transaction Date of planned material transaction: Promised date at line level
Pick tickets for planned material transactions show these shipment types from Service Management:
- Inventory Issue
This type can include the technician truck identifier to indicate which truck to load with the product. Setup is required in Product Extended Warehouse Cross Reference Setup.
- Inventory Return
- Customer Ship
- Customer Return
