System Directed Cluster Pick - Excluded Locations/Items

Report

Posted on by Keystone Business S...

In setting up mobile device menu item for system directed cluster picking, I created a system directed work sequence query (below) with the intention of excluding certain locations from being included in the cluster pick (contains larger items). I've also tried excluding specific item numbers in the query and neither option seems to work. Is this a known bug in how the query is applied or is there a different way we can exclude specific locations from being included in cluster pick generation?

My other thought was to attempt to set up an entirely new work template with a different work class.

System Directed Cluster Pick - Excluded Locations/Items

Hi,

I can see that you are trying to filter out work header by filtering on work line and key part is work has multiple lines always so simply using work line table will not filter out work headers while cluster are getting added.

I use below way to filter out the locations which we do not want to be part of system directed cluster picking.

1 - We have a dedicated work template which is used to query all locations which we do not want to pick using cluster. We use work Pool ID "NA for cluster picking" on the work template. As a result, when work is generated from this work template, they get updated with work Pool id "NA for cluster picking"

We keep on adding and removing the locations to this work template on need basis in case some now locations need to be excluded or old blocked locations for cluster picking now need to be taken out of this block and picked via cluster.

2 - I filter out the work headers using the work pool ID in the query for the system directed cluster picking work sequencing.

3 -Now when I use mobile device to perform system directed cluster picking, we can see that the system has not added the above work ID in the cluster as it was filtered in the query.

You are also right in your thought to use work class as a differentiator. In our case due to key dependencies on work classes for other purposes in D365 we could not afford to differentiate sales order using different work classes.

System Directed Cluster Pick - Excluded Locations/Items

Good day,

I'm not sure if it's possible to exclude locations or items from cluster picking. It seems there are no parameters that allow you to exclude locations or items for cluster picking.

Best regards,
