Edit Order Info
Expand the Edit Order Info section to see the other order fields that can be edited through the Edit Order page. These values can be changed by editing their values and clicking Save at the bottom of the Edit Order Info section.
- Order Pick Method
- Either - Order can be picked with any method (this is the default option)
- SinglePickOnly - Order must be picked one at a time through Single Pick.
- BatchPickOnly - Order can only be picked as part of a batch through Batch Pick
- Area
- When using the Area Allocation logic, if an order is assigned to an Area then allocation is restricted to locations within that area. See Areas for more info
- Sequence
- When using Single Pick, orders are assigned to devices in priority sequence order. Order Priority is sorted in ascending order so that 1 comes before 10.
- In the Batch Build page, orders can be sorted by Order Priority to identify and batch those of higher priority
- This is a field that can be set automatically by an integration based on order criteria
- Order Custom Fields
- CustomField1-4 are text format and CustomField5 is a date/time format
- Custom Fields can have a custom label applied so that they are easier to identify in the data grids throughout the site. This can be done by following the instructions in Custom Field Labels
- Barcode Data
- This is the value that is presented in the Order Barcode during Packing or Verify
- If not provided on order import, the Barcode value is set to be the Order Number. This field can be any value if necessary and should be set on order creation if needed. For example, a partial order may have an incremental value in the Order Number field (123456-3), but the Barcode value should still be the original order number (123456)
