Introduction: Order Check-Out (02-08-11)

Overview

Once the picking/packing sheets are printed, merchandise for the orders is physically collected from the warehouse, and any items that are not available are noted on the picking sheet. The warehouse employee then returns the picking sheets to the person responsible for confirming, in the system, the items that were picked and the items that were out of stock.

With this selection, the picked orders are verified in the system. Available items are shipped and unavailable items are backordered. At this point the Inventory Committed and Inventory Onhand numbers are reduced by the quantity shipped.

If the ‘Invoice Print Mandatory’ preference is set to Y in Order Preferences (02-08-90-01), the status of the order after check out is ‘2 – Checked Out’. If this preference is set to N, the status of the order at the end of check out will be ‘4 – Invoice Printed.’
