This is the maximum number of assignments a picker can work at one time.

Pick Prompt to Operator

This determines how the system gives the pick prompt to the operator. Multiple Prompts means that the terminal gives a location prompt, after which the operator gives the check digits, and a quantity-to-pick prompt.

A Single Prompt means that the terminal gives the location and quantity to pick, no matter how many items the operator picks, before waiting for the operator to give the check digits. Single Prompt, Suppress Quantity 1 means that the terminal gives the location and, if the operator picks more than one item, the quantity to pick.

The prompt can include the work identifier depending on the setting in the Allow Speaking Work Identifier field. The slot identifier can include the slot, description, or both, depending on the pick setting of location/description.

Type of Delivery Prompt

This is the indicator that determines the type of delivery prompt for that area. Prompt Delivery Location means that the terminal prompts the operator with the delivery location and waits for the operator to say ready.

Prompt and Validate Delivery Location means that the terminal prompts the operator with the delivery location and waits for the operator to confirm it by saying the delivery location and ready.

None means that the terminal does not prompt the operator with delivery information.

Allow Voice Picking

Sign Off Allowed

This is the indicator that determines whether an operator can sign off an assignment before completing and delivering it. The task allows the operator to sign off at many points, but the operator can only sign off at those points if this option is set to yes.

Verify Quantity Placed in Container

This determines if the operator must verify the quantity that the operator is putting into the container.

Drop ID Required

This determines if the drop ID is required, optional, or not allowed for each pick.

Verify Quantity Picked

This determines if the operator must verify the quantity of each pick.

Container Method

This determines whether the picks should go into a case ID.

The system-directed container method informs the picker of the case ID where the picks should be put with the prompt, Put (picked qty) in {caseid}. The voice device then waits for a response based on the Validate Case ID value. No task detail pick quantities are combined. Each task detail is spoken to the selector.

Do Not Pick to Containers does not prompt the operator with any case ID information. The task detail pick quantities are combined for the same order, SKU, location, lot, and UOM. This summed quantity is spoken as a single quantity to the selector.
