Assignment of Warehouse Order to Resource

Purpose

Warehouse orders (WOs) can be assigned to resources in radio frequency (RF) and non-RF environments.

In an RF environment, WOs can be assigned manually or automatically, while in a non-RF environment, WOs are only manually assigned.

Prerequisites

In the case of automatic WO assignment to a resource, the WOs must belong to a queue to which the resource is assigned, and which the resource is authorized to work in.

Process

Warehouse Order Assignment to a Resource

	Non-RF Environment	RF Environment
1.	A resource logs on to the desktop environment.	A resource logs on to the RF environment.
2.	The warehouse manager assigns the WO to the resource via the Assign Rsrce monitor method.	One of the following occurs: ● The warehouse manager assigns a WO to the resource via the Assign Rsrce warehouse management monitor method. Any available WOs can be manually assigned to a resource, including those from queues to which the resource is not assigned. ● The resource requests work by choosing a system-guided option from the RF menu. In such a case, the system assigns to the resource the most appropriate WO. For more information, see Warehouse Order Selection. ● The resource requests work by choosing a manual option from the RF menu (for example, Pick by HU). In such a case, the system assigns to the resource the specific WO. You can also ensure that a new WO is automatically assigned to a resource after confirmation of a WO. You define this in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Mobile Data Entry ® Radio Frequency (RF) Framework ® Define Logical Transaction Flow.
3.	The warehouse manager prints out the WO and gives it to the resource.
