This is indeed for the moment an important shortcoming of the strategy Consolidate. At the moment when for example license plates are received with similar items we cannot guarantee that put away work will be created to the same location, when multiple pallets are allowed on 1 location. Even if we receive all pallets at once and not pallet per pallet for example. If your location directive strategy must be set in such a way that first the system must try to consolidate and if no location is found, the system must search for an empty location with no incoming work, with current functionality a different location will be selected when receiving multiple pallets at once. Resulting in multiple location filled with the same item and manual work to move all pallets again to one location.
Version 18 is still a white space muncher - my clients are pretty much all zooming out to 80-90 % still. The "Expand button" has an annoying default value as not expanded. Whoever thought non-expanded is better in a system where you can't have multiple windows floating next to-each other and horizontal space is still being eaten up by white or glorified transparent background.
I think this is a great idea. Something to add here is that the confirm and transfer functionality also doesn't work for sorted inventory picking. So in other words I do think that the functionality might need to be extended to support both "sorted inventory picking" and "packed container picking" scenarios.
For sorted inventory picking the user is really stuck if the load needs to be partially confirmed. This because the confirm and transfer and "transfer shipment to new load" functionality both doesn't work in a sorting scenario.
This is also applicable for spare parts of machinery which goes out for repair at Vendor site. User typically don't wish to create new material code for these parts and would typically prefer to use a common outward material code and include quantity returnable. Therefore Transfer order option is not feasible. It would be better if Gate Management solution is extended with following information or text fields include to enter these:
GSTIN for Legal Entry and Vendor, Vendor Address of Service Centre, Unit Of Measures in report, Text entry HSN code, Purpose in header and lines level, Estimated value of part
It is outrageous that an idea with so many votes is not implemented faster. And developing such a drag & drop function shouldn't be too difficult and time-consuming for Microsoft.
It doesn't make sense that every BC partner has to develop their own drag & drop function and Microsoft will come up with an official solution at some point and we then have to revoke our drag & drop functions.
This is the idea with the 3rd most votes (across all areas). According to which criteria does Microsoft prioritize, if not according to the number of votes? Sorry, but I'm losing patience on this subject.
Hi Melissa,
After using the software I have discovered the that the voice commands "Remote Assist Pin / Remote Assist Unpin" can be useful in this situation where someone has accidentally pinned the call window in a far away location.
The person can say "Remote Assist Unpin" to bring the call window back to them.
