Pick Carts and Pick Totes

Pick Carts and Pick Totes

When creating waves you have the option to use a pick cart with totes. An advanced wave has the option to automatically assign each order to a tote when processing a wave. This way, the user will build each order in a tote as they walk through the warehouse fulfilling the wave.

Creating a Pick Cart

To create a pick cart, 

  1. Navigate to 'Orders' from the top nav bar in the admin console. From there, navigate to Wave picking > Pick Carts and Totes
  2. Next, Click the New Pick Cart section at the top of the page:
  3. Give the cart a name, and select the Warehouse that the cart will be located at. Click 'Add' when finished.

Creating Totes

Once you have a Pick Cart created you can then create totes that are assigned to that cart. 

To do so,

  1. Click on the cart to expand the cart detail:
  2. Click Add a Tote then select Add New Tote from the drop-down menu:
  3. Give the tote a name (Example tote name: Tote-001) and then click the Add Tote. button. You will now see the tote listed as connected to that cart.
