Every picking slip in Micronet has a status which tells you how far the slip has progressed. The status of slips changes automatically when they are downloaded to PDAs and then completed and posted back to Micronet. Colours are used to identify the status of the picking slips so you can quickly and easily tell which slips need attention.
|
Technical Tip Picking slips are only displayed in their status colours if your company is uses supply chain procurement. For more information, refer to "Edit - Program - Supply Chain Config (v2.8)". |
This table explains the colours displayed on the Warehouse Scheduler - Picking Slips tab and what action you should take for picking slips displayed in a particular colour:
