Picking Types
The Picking Type table in Fluentis allows for the coding and definition of the different types of picking that can be used during the creation of picking lists. Users can insert new records, modify existing ones, or delete them based on operational needs.
Each type of picking can be associated with specific parameters, including a unique alphanumeric code, document numeration, and movement templates. It is also possible to establish the type of invoice or DN to be used and manage configurations such as the initial state of picking and the priority of warehouse locations. This flexibility allows companies to adapt the system to their needs, thereby improving efficiency in warehouse operations and contributing to optimal material flow management.
The table is located at Tables > Logistics > Picking Types.
