Documentation

Use

If you use the application component Shipping (LE-SHP) along with the Warehouse Management system (LE-WMS), you decide on the basis of the picking technique, which document should be used as a basis for picking the material in WMS that is required for the outbound delivery

The following picking techniques exist:

  • Picking with transfer orders (TOs)

    Based on the outbound delivery, you create transfer orders in WMS and use the functions, which WMS offers.

  • Picking without transfer orders (TOs)

    You pick the materials in a certain storage type within the WM-managed warehouse from predefined fixed storage bins. In doing so, the system does not create any transfer orders; you pick directly on the basis of the outbound delivery documents.

    To do this, you must have defined a fixed storage bin for each material in the material master.

  • Picking according to quantity

    Depending on the quantity to be picked, you pick

    • Without TOs directly from fixed storage bins for small quantities
    • With TOs for large quantities.

We recommend picking for outbound deliveries in WMS with transfer orders.
