Restock Bins Module

Overview

Maintain a smooth flow of operations and use storage effectively by moving stock to primary bins, especially in high-traffic areas of your warehouse. If there isn’t enough inventory in your primary bins, you can create a Restock List to replenish your primary areas with quantity from non-primary bins. Well-stocked primary bins eliminate the need for employees to spend hours searching for items or make last-minute arrangements to fulfill orders.

Restock Bins Module

The Restock Bins module is located within Skustack’s Bin tab and allows you to easily search for existing Restock Lists or create new ones, monitor their progress, and more.

Search Restock Lists

You can search for Restock Lists in one of two ways:

• Search By ID – Search by a specific Restock List ID
• Search All – Search for all Restock Lists. You can filter by:

           Status

  Defaults to all. You can choose from one of the available statuses: 

  • All
  • Open
  • Completed
  • Closed
  • Canceled
  • Void

          Type

  • Order Replenish
  • Pick Planning

To pick inventory for a Restock List:

1. Navigate to Bin > Restock Bins module.
2. Select your desired Search Mode > tap Go.
   In the Search All mode you can filter by the Restock List type or status (e.g Open, Closed, etc). The Search by ID mode on the other hand allows you to pre-select whether you want to Pick or PutAway a specific Restock List.

   1. Bins – displays all bins in which the item’s units are stored.
   2. Info – directs you to the Product Info module.
6. Scan a Product ID/UPC barcode, or tap it on the screen. The product will open.
7. Start picking units for the product by either scanning the barcode of the product or manually entering Pick Qty.
8. If you are scanning units, use the green Arrow next to the scan field to indicate whether products are to be added or removed from the Restock List.
9. Enter the bin from which you are picking or select the suggested bin. The suggested bin may appear next to the Bin field. This suggestion is based on the following factors:
   1. The bin is sellable.
   2. The bin type is Normal or Temp.
   3. Primary bins will always be suggested first.
   4. The bin with the most or least quantity will be suggested based on the client setting PickList Bin suggestion sort qty by ASC Order.

12. Once you’re done picking, tap the Checkbox icon to switch to PutAway mode. This process is similar to picking, but you select the bin into which you are putting the products away instead.
