Create pick lists of items needed for a work order. There is a difference between a material list and a pick list. A material list displays materials or parts planned for a work order, while a pick list includes parts that are actually requested from stores for the work order.
A pick list is a more urgent means of acquiring materials needed for a pending work order. A worker assigned to a work order requiring parts can print a pick list to the store and have the parts waiting for pick-up in a short period of time.
Associate multiple pick lists with a work order or piece of equipment. When you save the pick list to the database, Datastream 7i generates a ticket number for the pick list.
First define the header information for the pick list. Then define the line items on the Parts page of the Pick list form (SDPICK).
For each non-asset part on a pick list, the Pick list form (SDPICK) and the Print pick list report form (SRPICK) both display the bin location of each part on the list. Workers can create pick lists for pending work orders and send them to the storeroom printer. Storeroom employees can use the printed pick list to aid in finding all of the requested parts. Printed pick lists enable a storeroom to locate and sort parts for work orders in advance.
Accepting partial delivery of pick list items closes the pick list.
