Sort items on the Put Wall
This workflow shows you how to sort picked items into work order locations on the Put Wall, and how to unload completed orders. Use it after a batch of items has been picked and needs to be distributed to its orders.
Role: Operator
Prerequisites
- Your account has the Put Wall permission for the Put Wall storage.
- The Put Wall shows the status Put Wall is empty and ready for a new process, or an unfinished process you can continue.
Steps
Sort the items
- On the Main Menu, click Put Wall. The Put Wall overview opens and shows the current status.
- Click Start to begin a new process, or Continue to resume one, and scan a code to begin.
- Scan the next item. The Put Wall highlights the destination location with its LED and the screen shows the amount to place.
- Place the shown amount into the highlighted location and confirm it. Depending on the storage settings, you confirm by scanning the location, scanning the container, or clicking Confirm. The counter of completed items increases.
- Repeat the previous two steps for every item. When everything is sorted, the message You have completed the sorting of all items appears.
When the Put Wall turns a scan down — an item that no work order needs, an item already completed or cancelled, an item that belongs to another put wall, or a placing confirmation that is refused — you hear an error sound, the device vibrates where it supports it, and the light blinks red, in addition to the message on the screen.
To drop an item you have scanned, click the back arrow on the placing confirmation. The Stop process dialog asks you to confirm: Yes discards the scanned item and switches the light guidance off, No keeps you on the item.
Find a work order on the Put Wall
The work order list — in the Put Wall overview and while you place items — shows the locations each order stands on next to its number. Beyond the first three locations, the rest are folded behind More.
- Click the search icon above the list.
- Enter a work order number or the name of a location on this Put Wall. The list shows only the matching orders, and the active filter appears as a chip you can remove to see the full list again.
If nothing matches, the message No work order or location matches provided criteria. appears.
Unload the Put Wall
- In the Put Wall overview, click Unload Put Wall to remove completed work orders one by one, or Clear Put Wall to empty the wall in one step. Which button is available depends on the Put Wall clearing policy in the storage settings.
- Take the goods out of each indicated location and confirm the unloading.
Result
All items are sorted into their work order locations, the completed work orders are unloaded, and the Put Wall status returns to Put Wall is empty and ready for a new process.
