Bulk
picking will reduce the number of times goods are processed and returned to a user.
After pick release occurs for both outbound sales orders and internal orders,
or for manufacturing component picks, Oracle Warehouse Management consolidates
tasks of similar characteristics into a single bulk task. This process can be
initiated either at the time of pick release, or through a concurrent program(“WMS
Bulk Task Generation”) separate from the pick release process.
Bulk
picking only works effectively if the same item is picked repeatedly from the forward
pick location causing frequent replenishments.
