Picking Multiple Orders at Once

To pick multiple orders at once, you first need special barcodes for picking boxes. You can find the dialog for creating these barcodes in the Shopware Backend under Artikel → Etiketten → Etikettendruck → Kommissionierkisten (Products → Labels → Label Printing → Picking Boxes). You can find more information on label printing in this article.

In the WMS App, navigate to the Open tab and tap the box icon in the top right to start picking. Here you can choose between rolling picking and batch picking. Alternatively, you can scan the barcodes of the picking boxes in the Open tab to start rolling picking mode directly. How each mode works is explained below.

You can also use pick profiles when picking multiple orders at once. To do so, use the corresponding button to select the desired pick profile. How to create pick profiles is explained in this article.

Rolling Picking

Scan one of the picking boxes or start the process manually as described above. Each order requires one box, so scan as many boxes as the number of orders you want to pick. In the next step, the corresponding number of orders will be loaded. All items are sorted by storage location and identical items are grouped together. Now scan the items as usual and follow the on-screen instructions to sort the items into the corresponding boxes.

To create invoices and/or delivery notes as well as shipping labels for the picking boxes once the process is complete, scan the corresponding box in the Ready to Ship tab. This takes you to the screen for creating the documents. To mark an order as shipped, finally scan the shipping label.

Individual orders can be set aside during rolling picking, for example if not all items are in stock. Once you have started rolling picking and tap on the name of the box (e.g. Box 1 (#20000)) for an order that has already been (partially) picked, a selection menu opens. Among other things, there is the option Set Aside. This sets the corresponding order aside, and the rolling picking process can continue with the remaining orders.

Batch Picking

Navigate to the Batch tab as described above. Under Number of Orders, enter the desired number of orders to pick. Then tap the Fetch Orders button. All items from the selected orders are now grouped together and displayed sorted by storage location. Scan the items as usual and finally end the process via Complete Batch.

In the next step, the collected goods need to be assigned. To do this, scan any item and then any box. The item is now assigned to this box. All other items in the order are automatically assigned to the same box. Once all items have been processed, you will find the corresponding orders in the Ready to Ship tab. The final procedure is the same as for rolling picking.
