Did you anytime find discrepancies in loaded or the picked (Staged/loaded to dock) material (LPNs) for outbound customer orders prior to Shipping? You might have noticed these discrepancies and they might lead to incorrect shipments, in-accuracy in inventory quantities, increased Return Material (RMA) shipments and loose time and revenue.
As of today, the warehouse users do not have a mechanism to verify the loaded or the picked (Staged/loaded to dock) material (LPNs) for outbound customer orders and move orders.
Considering these business impacts, new ‘Verify Pick’ feature is introduced in Warehouse Management from Oracle EBS 12.2.9 latest version. There is option to make system to enforce inspection of picked material which contributes to efficient and timely tracking of picked contents (LPNs) and allows you to keep track of discrepancies and train your warehouse users to perform their job more effectively.
Here’s an example from an Oracle Vision Demo instance
The goal of Verify Pick is to provide ability for users (pickers & shippers) to confirm the material picked during Load operation is same as what was confirmed by the users during picking process. It enables Warehouse Managers to track picking exceptions and take corrective measures to ensure on-hand (LPN’s) shipped to customers have no picking discrepancies.
In highly regulated industries like Pharma, system allows users to ensure proper lots and serials are shipped and conform to business process that requires another user to re-confirm the material loaded or picked in an LPN before it’s dropped to the staging area or is shipped out.
Currently this feature ‘Verify Pick’ applicable for WMS enabled organizations only.
