Item pick location configuration (Assign Locations tab)

Use this page to configure a pick location for the item.

To configure a pick location for the item:

  1. Select the Assign Locs tab to access the pick location fields. You must create at least one row to define a pick case location and one row to define a pick piece location.
    Note: You can use the Excel Import and Export features to create or update item pick locations. With the Import feature, you can import, at a minimum, only the fields required to create an item pick location; or you can import additional data into the other fields. With the Export feature, you can select to export all data for selected item pick locations or only the data displayed on the list view. For additional information on the Import and Export features, see the Infor WMS Introduction and Navigation User Guide.
  2. Click New to access the Assign Location detail view.
  3. Specify this information:
    Location Type
    The type of storage location required. Options include:
    • Layer
    • Case
    • Pick
    • Speed Line
    • Other

      Required if owner/item combination is assigned to Location.

    Location
    The code of the location within the facility. You can either enter the location or use the Lookup feature to select a specific location. Required.
    Minimum. Capacity (Master Unit)
    The minimum quantity allowed in the assigned location for the item. Replenishment priority levels increase as the inventory levels approach minimum capacity. Required if you populate the Capacity Minimum on the Item/Loc tab.

    Default value: Displays the data you entered on the Item/Loc tab.

    Maximum Capacity (Master Unit)
    The maximum quantity of the item that the location can hold. When the application drops below this amount, a replenishment task is triggered. The priority of the task depends on how close the inventory level is to the maximum capacity. Required if you enter the Capacity Maximum on the Item/Loc tab.

    Default value: Displays the data you entered on the Item/Loc tab.

    Minimum Replenishment UOM
    The minimum unit of measure (UOM) you can use before a replenishment task is triggered. For example, a full case or pallet is needed before dispatching a replenishment task. Default value: EA
    Allow Replenishment from Bulk
    Determines whether a replenishment task is triggered from a Bulk/Reserve location to a Case, Piece, or Bulk/Reserve location.

    Default value: Check box is selected when Location type is PICK – Case or PICK – Piece.

    Allow Replenishment from Case
    Determines whether a replenishment task is triggered from a replenishment task from a Case location to a Piece, or Bulk/Reserve location.

    Default value: Check box is selected when the Location type is PICK – Piece. Field is disabled when the Location type is PICK – Case.

    Allow Replenishment from Piece
    Determines whether a replenishment task is triggered from a Piece location to a Case or Bulk/Reserve location.
    Note: Check box is disabled when Location Type is PICK – Piece.
    Replenishment Priority
    The priority of the replenishment task:
    • 1 = Highest priority
    • 9 = Lowest priority
    Determines the order in which replenishment tasks are generated. Write-protected.
    Replenishment Override
    The number of units entered in this field forces the creation of a Priority 1 replenishment task in Task Manager to move that quantity of items into the location (if it is a case/piece pick location). If it is necessary to force high priority replenishment, enter the number of units to replenish in this field. If not, no action is needed.
    Note: 
    • If the location is already filled to maximum capacity, no replenishment task is created.
    • This field is optional; however, it is required if you populate the Capacity Minimum on the Item/Loc tab.

      Default value: Displays the data you entered on the Item/Loc tab.

    UOM Qty to be Replenished
    The UOM quantity. This calculation is based on the Minimum Replenishment UOM. Write-protected.
    Lot Number
    The Lot number for the item. If a lot number is displayed, the lot must be used for replenishment. If a lot number does not exist, the system determines the lot based on normal rotation. The application populates the lot numbers in the Lot Number field automatically for the assigned speed line when an item is moved, replenished, or adjusted in the specified location. This automatic update occurs only when all these conditions are met:
    • The Location Type field is set to Speed Line.
    • The UPDATESKUXLOCLOT parameter is enabled on the System Settings screen.
    • The value must be specified in the Speed Pick Group Strategy field on the Outbound tab of the Item screen.
    • The Force One Lot per Speed Pick – Not allocating by Lottables check box is selected on the Speed Pick Group screen.
