Picking at A Pick Point Using Radio Frequency

The document discusses picking products from a handling unit (HU) at a pick point using radio frequency (RF) technology. At the pick point, a warehouse worker withdraws products from an HU and packs them into a pick HU. The prerequisites for RF picking at a pick point include defining the storage type, work center layout, and warehouse process type. Key features of RF picking at a pick point are logging into the work center, creating an empty pick HU, and withdrawing products from an HU and packing them into a pick HU.

Picking at a Pick Point Using Radio

Frequency
 
You are able to pick at the pick point using a Radio Frequency (RF)
presentation device. This function is part of the goods issue process.
In this type of picking, the handling unit (HU) arrives at the warehouse
worker (goods-to-man). In standard RF picking, it is the other way round:
the warehouse worker gets the HU (man-to-goods).
At the pick point, you withdraw products from a handling unit (HU), and
pack these into pick handling units. The pick point is defined as a work
center in Extended Warehouse Management.

Prerequisites
You have made the following settings in Customizing for Extended
Warehouse Management:
 In the storage type which contains the stockt, you have set
the Pick Point indicator to Active in stock removal control.
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose   
Master Data   Define Storage Type. 
 In the storage type which contains the pick point, you have set
the Storage Type Role field as B(Pick Point) or C (ID and Pick
Point).
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose   
Master Data   Define Storage Type. 
 In the layout-oriented storage control, you have entered the
storage type of the pick point for the inventory-managed storage
type in the Intermediate Storage Type field. You have also made
an entry in the warehouse process type. You can also define the
intermediate storage section and intermediate location. You have
set the Pick Point indicator
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose   
Cross-Process Settings   Warehouse Task   Define Layout-
Oriented Storage Control. 
 In the work center layout, you have define the transaction
type Packing - General.
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose   
Master Data   Work Center   Define Work Center Layout. 
 If you are using process-oriented storage control, you have
entered the following in the work center:
o External step
o Storage type of the pick point
o Work center layout
o Warehouse process type for putback from the pick point
o Return storage type (inventory-managed storage type)
If you are using consolidation groups, you have set the value in
the Check Cons. Group field to Check When Unpacking HUs and
Products.
If you want to enter external HU numbers as well, you have
selected the field RF: HU Ready for Input.
In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose   
Master Data   Work Center   Define Work Center. 
 Note
If the indicator is not selected, you cannot specify an HU number.
The system determines the HU number from the internal number
range.

Features
 Logging On to the Work Center
Before using the pick point function, you have to log on to the work
center. You then select the function from the RF menu, or the
system calls it, if the user selects another function for the first time,
such as Process HU.
 Creating a Pick-HU
You choose this function directly from the menu, or by choosing
function key F12 in the pick point function, to create an empty pick-
HU:
1. If a packaging material or storage bin is defined for the
work center, it is displayed.
2. To create a pick-HU, you must enter at least the
packaging material and the storage bin.
3. If you specify an HU number, the system creates a pick-
HU with the same number.
4. If you do not specify an HU number, the system uses a
number from the internal number range. If you also enter
a consolidation group, this is stored with the HU, and you
can then use the HU for this consolidation group only.
 Additional Processing Options:
o Delete empty HU
o Maintain attributes of the HU, such as consolidation
group, total weight, total volume, maimum weight,
maximum volume, weight tolerance, volume tolerance,
length, width, height, and logical position
o Create a warehouse task manually for transporting an HU
o Trigger the print function manually
o Complete a pick-HU in process-oriented storage control
o Trigger automatic creation of a warehouse task for return
transport of the source HU
 Pick Point
1. The user enters the HU number of the HU that was
transported from the warehouse to to pick point, and that
contains the product that is to be picked.
2. The user withdraws the required quantity, and packs it into
a pick-HU. If a suitable pick-HU already exists, the system
proposes it to the user. If multiple suitable pick-HUs exist,
the user can select another.
If no suitable pick-HU exists, the user can call
function Creation of an HU directly, and create one. This
is then copied automatically into the pick point dialog.
3. The user can display how many open stock movements
for the current wave and consolidation group are still to
come to his pick point, and how great the weight and
volume of these stock movements is. The system also
displays the maximum length, width and height of the
products in these stock movements. This information is
important for selecting the correct packaging material.
