Multi Order Picking

This page is outdated. Please go to our new documentation under https://docs.fulfillmenttools.com/documentation.

Summary

Multi order picking is a picking method where a picker simultaneously collects items for multiple tasks in a single pass through e.g. the warehouse. This method increases efficiency by reducing the travel time and distance covered, as opposed to picking items for one task at a time. Multi order picking is often optimized using advanced software systems that group orders in a way that minimizes picking paths and improves overall productivity.

Use Case Example

The company has established the following requirements for its operational picking process:

1. Multi order picking is to be implemented exclusively for one designated facility in this case a warehouse, while single order picking is to be utilized for all other facilites.

2. No more than five tasks may be picked simultaneously to ensure efficiency and manageability.

3. Picking operations are conducted using load units, with a total of five distinct load unit types available.

4. Upon completion of picking, the load units are transferred to a designated packing station. The packing process begins from this location.

Configure multi order picking. First of all, everything needs to be configured, so that the process later works as designed.

1. Configure picking method for a warehouse facility

PickingMethod MULTI_ORDER must be set in the designated facility, in this case the warehouse. The default SINGLE_ORDER applies in all other facilities, which is set in the picking configurations.
