Printing Standard Order Entry Reports
Printing Picking Tickets
You can print pick tickets all at once, print only specific tickets, or reprint tickets. Regardless of how you print them, pick tickets print in ticket number order.
The pick ticket is a list of items on an order. The order packer uses it to pull the order from stock. You can print a pick ticket in different formats. To see a sample of each, click the following links:
In the (TR) Order Entry Reports screen, select the [A] Picking Tickets report code.
Note: If you specify A in the Future Shipping field in the (LGØ) Order Entry Parameters screen, the Print Allocated Due Date Tickets prompt appears. To include tickets with allocated due dates up to and including the current system date, type Y. To not include tickets with allocated due dates, type N.
The cursor moves to the Pick # field. To print all of your pick tickets, leave the Pick # and To # fields blank by pressing Enter.
Note: If the Prompt To Flush And Batch Print Furniture Orders Separately field in the (LGC) Furniture Order Entry Parameters screen is set to Y, the Include, Exclude, or Only Furniture Orders prompt appears. To include furniture orders when you print pick tickets, press type I. To exclude furniture orders when you print pick tickets, type E. To print only tickets with furniture orders, type O.
To batch print pick tickets, in the Route field, press Enter. Although the cursor moves to the remaining limit fields, you cannot set limits. Go to Step 4.
To print only specific tickets, you can set any combination of limits. However, to be included in a report, the record must meet all of the limits you set.
Use the Pick # and To # fields to limit reports by specifying a range of pick ticket numbers.
Note: If you are reprinting a ticket(s), the Pick # and To # fields are the only limits you can set.
Use the Route # and To # fields to limit reports to a range of delivery route numbers. When you enter a range of numbers, you can use either the number from the Route box in the Customer Master tab, or the number in the Route box in the Shipping Manifest in the Buyers/Manifest tab. To use the Route box in the Customer Master tab, type R. To use the Route box in the Shipping Manifest, type M.
Use the Zip # and To # fields to limit reports to a range of zip codes.
Use the Writer and To fields to limit reports to a range of order-writer numbers.
Use the Name and To fields to limit reports to a range of customer names.
The cursor moves to the Sort Order 1 field. Sorts determine the order in which the pick tickets print. To accept the default sort (sorting by pick ticket number), press Enter and go to Step 6.
You can specify up to two codes. To do this, enter the appropriate sort code in the Sort Order 1 and 2 fields. For example, to sort tickets by date, type D in the Sort Order 1 field. Always define the priority for your sorts beginning with the most general and narrowing to the most specific.
By specifying sort parameters for a report, you establish the order and grouping of any records included in the report. For example, if you sort by customer name, all of the information for each customer is grouped together and printed in alphabetical order by name. There also can be sorts within sorts. For example, if you sort by customer name and date, the report groups customer names according to date.
Sorts use either ascending or descending order. Ascending order is from first to last (from A to Z, for example). Descending order is from last to first (from 10 to 1, for example). You cannot combine ascending and descending sorts for a single report.
To sort reports or tickets by pick ticket number, type #.
To sort by customer name, type C.
To sort by the date the order was entered, type D.
To sort by the shipping route, type M. The shipping route is set in the Route box in the Shipping Manifest in the Buyers/Manifest tab.
To sort by the route number, type R. The route number is set in the Route box in the Customer Master tab.
To sort by salesperson, type S. The salesperson number is set in the Salesperson 1 box in the Customer Master tab.
To sort by order-taker number, type T.
To sort by zip code, type Z. The zip code is set in the Zip box in the Customer Master tab.
In the Loc field, enter the inventory location for which to print pick tickets. To print pick tickets for all inventory locations, space through the Loc field.
In the Printer field, enter the logical name of the printer to use.
In the Format field, press Tab to accept the default (the format specified in the T-I-C-K-E-T-S Form field in the (L1) Terminal and Tickets Parameters screen), or enter another format to use.
In the Status field, press Tab to accept the default (the status set in the T-I-C-K-E-T-S St field in the (L1) screen), or enter the status for all of the pick tickets to move to after they print.
Note: You can only change the status of pick tickets that have never been printed.
Status 2 and 3 tickets are changed to the status specified in the (L1) screen.
In the Copies and Totals fields, press Enter. They do not apply.
Note: You can check the status of today's reports by going to the Batch Ticket/Invoice Print Status screen. From the Master Menu, type TT. The Batch Ticket/Invoice Print Status screen opens. You can see the detail of a print job or check the current status of a report. To see basic status information, in the Action Code field, type F.
To set limits, in the Action Code field, type L. To see detail, in the Detail field, type Y. You can limit by Who, Terminal, Printer and Request. The status updates every 30 seconds. Status information is stored in the RPT-TRACK file and is deleted during your day-end procedure.
