When running the volume picking on IMOs with a high priority, can the priority be transferred automatically to the Pick doc?

HI Jason,

I don’t believe this will be possible without code change to allow the prioritization to take the most high priority in the selected IMO’s.

To illustrate, I created two IMO’s each with a different priority.

Note, one is New High and the other is Urgent Priority.

When I selected them and ran the Volume Picking, it created a single Pick document and was set to medium priority.

As you are allowed to pick multiple IMO’s from the Volume Picking, a decision needs to be made which priority is applicable from the selected IMO’s to use with the resulting pick document.

Even if I select IMO’s having the same priority, it is not transferred to the Pick document.

Currently, Alliance does not choose this way and only defaults to Medium Priority.

Thanks for the quick response Phil.

You are welcome, Jason.

For clarity, a Pick document should select the priority from the original document used to generate the material logistics.

However, as pointed out above, this is not possible if you have multiple documents which is by definition how the volume picking works.

 

Per the Pick List.pdf:
