What is the process flow in packing process in warehouse management solution?
23/Feb/2024
Introduction
In a AGen inventory management system packing process, once items are picked and verified, they are directed to dedicated packing stations where they are carefully assembled, packaged, and labelled with shipping information, undergoing quality checks before integration with shipping carriers, thereby ensuring accurate and efficient order fulfilment while seamlessly updating inventory and providing customers with timely notifications and tracking information.
Order after Picked:
The storekeeper will allocate the picked item at the designated location, they will consolidate the picked item based on the shipping arrangement.
Verification:
After consolidated, the items are verified to ensure that the correct products and quantities have been selected for each order.
Scan and Pack:
Items are scanned at the packing station to ensure that they match the order. This helps in reducing errors and improving accuracy. However, this process flow is optional for many organisations. After the scanning, the items are then packed into the appropriate packaging based on factors like size, weight, and fragility.
Documentation and Labelling:
Necessary shipping documents, such as packing slips and invoices, are generated and included in the package. Shipping labels are printed and attached to the packages.
Quality Check:
A surface quality check may be performed to ensure that the packed items meet the required standards and are not damaged. The photo information may send to the customer to inform the customer.
Updating Inventory:
The system updates the inventory to reflect the picked and packed items as "shipped" or "in-transit."
