Print Item_pick_list for all task types

Question & Answer


Question

How do you print Item_pick_list for all task types?

Answer

Following configurations are required to print item_pick_task_list

  1. For task type Batch_pick
    Configure YNW_PrintWave _80 service on success of Create_batch
  2. After wave is released run batch_wave agent it will create batches for the tasks and will stamp a batch# on the waves.
  3. NW_print_wave_80 service will be called and task list will be retrieved from the batch# passed.

By default system considers only Batch_pick for printing task list.

For other task types Batch_wave agent changes the wave status to batched, but no batch# is stamped
hence print service cannot find the task list require to print the list.

Workaround for order pick and item pick
However we can configure the task type as follows to achieve task list printing
Configure the task type as follows:
Perform task using Activity ItemPick
Product is picked onto an inventory pallet
Use GPC as primary equipment type
Perform task using printed tickets
Dispatch tasks as soon as they are generated
Use Sterling WMS Application to plan trips by batching tasks
Use pick sequence for picking
Use putaway sequence for putaway
Similarly configure for Order_pick.
System will stamp batch# for the wave in consideration and task list will be printed.
Other general setting related to printer and document remains same.

Sample file printed(.pas file)
pas file name format will be like this
Printername_WavePrint_timestamp.pas this pas file will have the task list, there will be other .pas generated based on the configuration by print wave service.
The content of this file will look like this:
