cluster picking in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations one version
Cluster Picking allows multiple work units to be “clustered” together. Picks from the warehouse will then be grouped by location and item, to increase efficiency.
Cluster picking offers significant levels of optimization. You can pick multiple orders at a time by incorporating the pick tasks for various orders and sequencing them accordingly.
Work will be created in clusters, and the picking functionality ensures that the warehouse worker visits every location in the cluster only one time.
The worker will be instructed to pick the whole quantity needed and place the items into positions, for all cartons.
Cluster will organize the picking work for the worker.
When a work order is assigned to a cluster, the worker must use cluster picking to perform the picking work for the order.
Worker cannot use other picking methods. If a work order is assigned to a cluster by mistake, the worker must break the cluster and then re-create it.
If needed, a worker can pass a cluster to another worker. This changes the cluster status to Passed.
When the worker uses a mobile device to indicate that the picking and put away work is completed, the shipment or load must be confirmed in the AX client.
Pre-requisites to setup cluster Picking:
Cluster profiles
– specify whether to automatically generate cluster IDs, the number of positions to use, how to sequence and verify the picking work
Work templates
- Define how to create the picking work for cluster picking
Location directives
- Specify where to pick items from, and where to put them
Mobile device menu items
- configure a mobile device menu item to use existing work that is directed by cluster picking.
Warehouse Management parameters
- Specify the number sequence to use if you want to generate identifiers for clusters
