This page is outdated. Please go to our new documentation under .

Our platform currently allows the following picking methods:

  • Single Order Picking

  • (Multi Order) Batch Picking

  • Multi Order Picking (WIP, currently API only)

There are three different options to set the used picking methods:

  • On tenant:

    • pickingMethodsConfiguration in /api/configurations/picking

    • Options are: SINGLE_ORDER or MULTI_ORDER or BATCH

  • At Facility:

    • pickingMethods in /api/facilities

    • Options are: SINGLE_ORDER or MULTI_ORDER or BATCH

  • At individual picking task:

    • preferredPickingMethods in picking task

    • Options are: SINGLE_ORDER or MULTI_ORDER or BATCH

  • Default is tenant config (only one possible), facility overwrites tenant, pickjob overwrites tenant and facility

  • When non of this is defined, the client will default to SINGLE_ORDER
