Over Picking process overview

You can set an over pick percentage to over pick a shipment. On the Owner Task tab, you can specify the percentage in the Over Pick Percentage field. The Allow Over Pick field on the Misc tab must be selected for the shipment order to consider the over pick percentage. This example shows how the over pick threshold is calculated:

  • Original pick quantity is 1
  • Over pick percentage is 25
  • User pick quantity is 150
  • 100 (original pick qty) * 25% (over pick percentage) = 25
  • 100 + 25 = 125, which is the threshold

If the user pick quantity is greater than the threshold, then a warning message is displayed asking if you want to continue pick even though the threshold percentage exceeds the over pick.

The over pick process has been added to these pick options:

  • All cluster pick options

  • Assignment picking
