Batch orders are useful in streamlining processes. Heres how to use our Batch order feature.
- To create a batch order, navigate to Production> Orders> Batch list.
- You can click create batch, or view all other batch orders.
- Once you create a batch you can name the batch for easy tracking. Then to add orderlines to the batch, type in the orderline you are looking for and click add. Then click create batch once you have added all desired orderlines.
- From the batch you can pick parts for all of the orders, move the location of all orderlines, and start/record work for all orders.
- To batch pick parts click the Pick Parts button. This will open up a screen with all the parts that need to be picked for all of the orders. You can pick all lines or pick from each bin individually just like the pick parts screen. You can also print a pick list via the Print button.
- Note: Pick Quantities are assigned to orderlines based on the following priority: Oldest work start date, oldest order entry date, and lowest Orderline ID (lowest line level).
- To batch log time click the Start Work button. This will open up a regular log time screen but with all of the orderlines input automatically. You can add serials, pieces completed, and comments like normal. Work logged will be split between all orderlines.
- To stop work for all orders you can go to Production> Management> Active work. Or you can stop it by orderline.
- To batch move location status select the location from the drop down next to Change Status To. Click Move Ordlines to move all of the orderlines to that location.
- To close a batch click the Close button.
