Bin Ranking on PUT-PICK Type

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 175
Greetings to all of you.

Lets say that we have 2 bins , X and Y, of bin type put pick.

X needs to have higher ranking regarding the put-away action, since its closer to the receipt zone, but Y needs to have higher ranking regarding the pick action, since its closer to the shipping zone.

So i need to set the bin ranking in a way, that the system will prioritize the X bin for put-aways, but when it comes to picking, it must prioritize the Y bin.

How can i achieve that?
 
Thank you in advance!

    I agree with Valentin, you are explaining a Pick Bin (near shipping) and a Staging/Stock Bin (near receiving).  You would want to define stock levels for your Bins to trigger an Inventory Movement to take product from the Staging/Stock Bin and replenish your Pick Bin.  The Bin Type is "Pick" for the Pick Bin and "Put-Away" for the Stock Bin.
     
    This way you are always putting product away near receiving, you are always picking near shipping, and the system tells you when you need to move product from Stock to Pick Bins.
     
    All of this is out-of-the-box functionality within Business Central.  I would encourage you to reach out to your partner to help you get the configuration setup.

    I can't really think of anything in this case, other than separating each bin into 2 separate bins, one for pick and one for put.
