GENERAL SETUP PROGRAMS
Scan Parameter Profile (SCPR)

Scan Parameter Profile (SCPR)

In this program, you define your scan parameters for bar coded labels. SCPR allows you to break up a bar
code into its component parts and capture a separate value for each part. For example, the first four
characters of the bar code could represent the lot number, characters 6 to 10 could represent the weight and
characters 11 to 14 could represent the serial number.
In the Header Block of SCPR, you define your scan profile code, description and total length. In the Detail
Block of SCPR, you define whether the bar code is inbound or outbound, its type (weight, serial number, etc.),
starting and end position, the action required when it is scanned and its data type. You can have as many
records in the Detail Block as you require. For example, if a bar code consists of three parts (one for the
weight, one for the level 2 value and one for the serial number), you would set up three records in the Detail
Block for that scan parameter profile.
If you are capturing weights, serial numbers or a temperature, the profiles that you set up in SCPR must be
attached to the appropriate items in ITEM. If you are capturing inventory levels that were unknown at the time
of receipt entry (that is, blind receiving), the SCPR profile(s) are NOT attached to the appropriate items in
ITEM.

NOTE SCPR only supports bar code scanning of items with no more than two
SKU’s in their quantity breakdown (for example, pallet/case). You cannot scan bar
codes of items with three or more SKU’s in their quantity breakdown (for example,
pallet/case/each).

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Scan Profile Code Mandatory

Your scan profile code.

Description Mandatory

The description for your scan profile code.

Scan Profile Industry If you enter 128, your label will be defined as a UCC-128 label.

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Variable Length Y = Yes


N = No

Set this flag to Yes if the bar code that you are attaching your scan parameter
profile to is a variable length bar code. Otherwise, set the flag to No.

Scan Profile Code Length Mandatory

The total length of the bar code.

F I E L D D E S C R I P T I O N S ( D E TA I L B L O C K )

Inbound/Outbound I = Inbound
O = Outbound
B = Both

If you specify I for Inbound, the portion of the bar code that you are capturing
is restricted to an inbound RF process. If you specify O for Outbound, the por-
tion of the bar code that you are capturing is restricted to an outbound RF pro-
cess. If you specify B for Both, the portion of the bar code that you are
capturing can be used in either an inbound or outbound RF process.

Sequence Mandatory

In this field, you specify the sequence of each scanned in value. The
sequence that you enter need not match the physical layout of the bar coded
label.

You can extract an inventory level from multiple sequences in a bar code. For
example, if your bar code is 0123456789, you can define two sequences for
the level 3 value: sequence 1 for positions 1 to 2 and sequence 2 for positions
9 to 10. Your level 3 value extracted from the bar code would be 0189.

The extraction of an inventory level from multiple sequences of a bar code is


only available in RFCH blind receiving.

Type EDT1 = YYMMDD


EDT2 = MMDDYYYY
IGNO = Ignore Entry
LEV1 = Inventory Level 1
LEV2 = Inventory Level 2
LEV3 = Inventory Level 3
LEV4 = Inventory Level 4
OTHR = Other
PLTQ = Pallet Quantity (custom code required)
PLTW = Pallet Weight (custom code required)
SER = Serial Number*
TEMP = Temperature
UI = Unique Identifier
WGTN = Weight Net

The type of value that you are capturing. If a portion of the bar code that you
are scanning contains information that you do not wish to capture, you can
use the IGNO (Ignore Entry) option. Any part of a bar code assigned this type
will not be captured by AccellosOne 3PL.

NOTE If you use two or more values such as CUBE, HGT, LEN and WID in
the same scan parameter profile, each value must be captured on a separate
label. Only the values of SER, LEV1/2/3/4, UI, WGTG and WGTN can be
combined together and captured from a single label.

* For the serial number portion of the UCC-128 label only if you are cap-
turing a serial number and net weight.

Start Position Mandatory for fixed position bar codes

The position of the start character of the value that you are capturing. For
example, if the total length of your bar code is 10 characters and the portion of
the bar code that you are capturing is position 3 through 7, you would enter 3
in this field.

End Position Mandatory for fixed position bar codes

The position of the last character of the value that you are capturing. For
example, if the total length of your bar code is 10 characters and the portion of
the bar code that you are capturing is position 3 through 7, you would enter 7
in this field.

You can also define the end position by leaving this field blank and entering
the appropriate value in the Length field.

F I E L D D E S C R I P T I O N S ( D E TA I L B L O C K )

Start Character Reserved for future use

The number, letter or special character indicating the start of the portion of the
bar code that you wish to capture.

End Character Reserved for future use

The number, letter or special character indicating the end of the portion of the
bar code that you wish to capture.

Length Only applicable to fixed position bar codes

The length of the portion of bar code that you are capturing If you are using
the UCC-128 label, the length is usually 48.

Action The following actions are supported:

01 = Entry
02 = Validation

If you select Entry, validation may or may not occur depending on the value
being captured. If you select Validation, AccellosOne 3PL validates the value
against a list of valid values.

Date Format In this field you can specify the date format of any dates scanned in from a
SSCC label and saved in AccellosOne 3PL as an inventory level.

Unit of Measure Code Only required if you enter a weight, cube or linear measurement in the Type
field

The unit of measure for the captured value.

Data Type CHAR = Character


DATE = Date
INT = Integer
MONY = Money
NUM = Number

This field controls the formatting of values that you capture. If you select
DATE, the number that you enter will be formatted as a date. If you select
MONY, the number that you enter will be formatted in dollars and cents (for
example, $99.99).

Use CHAR for serial and purchase order numbers.

Decimal Position Only applicable to scanned in values with a data type of MONY or NUM

The position of the decimal point. For example, if you specify 2 and your cap-
tured value is 12345, AccellosOne 3PL will record the value as 123.45. If you
do not specify the position of the decimal point, all numbers will be captured
as integers.

Weight Modifier Only applicable to scanned in values whose unit of measure code is a weight
(KGS or LBS)

If required, you can specify a weight modifier and the scanned in weight will be
multiplied by the modifier.

Validate Item Code Only available for item code validation

P = Position-Based
L = Left Starting Position
R = Right Starting Position

Item code validation allows you to validate the item code in RFOPS and
UOPR when the item code in the bar code is shorter than the item code in
ITEM. That is, the level 1 in the bar code is a subset of the full level 1 in ITEM.

In this field, you specify the position of the item code in the bar code.

Item Code Start Position Only available for position-based validation

The start position for the item code.

Used to set up the MARS bar code.

Bar Code Profile Code (BAPR)

In this program, you set up your bar code profile codes. Bar code profile codes are only required if you wish to
scan in inventory levels or UI (Unique Identifier) values that are embedded in a bar code label. If the value
that you are scanning is not embedded in another code (that is, the level 1 or 2 or 3 label contains no other
value or extra characters), you do not need to set up a bar code profile in BAPR.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 11
GENERAL SETUP PROGRAMS
Bar Code Profile Code (BAPR)

UI values can be scanned in RFCH, RFPIC and many other RF programs. Inventory levels, on the other
hand, can only be scanned in RFCH. For each profile that you set up in BAPR, you define the value being
scanned (LEV1, LEV2, LEV3, LEV4, UI), the scan parameter code to which it is attached, the bar code length
and the bar code ID.
If you are capturing two or more inventory levels in RFCH, you can do so from multiple bar code labels. For
example, you could scan in levels 1 and 2 from bar code label A and level 3 from bar code label B.
Consider the following SCPR and BAPR setups for various bar coded labels. In the following examples, “---”
represents an inventory level, UI, weight or serial number that you wish to capture, while “999” represents
non-AccellosOne 3PL information in the bar code that you do not wish to capture.

If you set this flag to No, the Tie, Hi and Loose fields in RFCH will be disabled
and the RF operator can only enter the total quantity for a receipt line.

If you set this flag to Yes, the RF operator will be required to enter the tie, hi
and loose quantities for each receipt line and the Qty field in RFCH will be dis-
abled. For example, a tie, hi and loose quantity of 5/10/03 would equal 53
cases, while a tie, hi and loose quantity of 5/10/-1 would equal 49 cases. The
Yes option is designed to force RF operators to perform more accurate counts
and reduce receiving errors.

If you set this flag to Yes With Variance Check in P-Type Lines, the following
will occur. If the line quantity calculated from the tie/hi/loose quantities entered
by the operator in RFCH does not match the expected quantity in ENRE, the
operator will be allowed to enter the tie/hi/loose quantities a second time. If
there is still no match, the variance must be processed by a supervisor in

Yes, With Allowing Over a Pallet as a Full Pallet

If you select No, partial pallet put-away to a reserved area is deactivated and
normal put-away rules to a non-reserved area apply.

If you select Yes, partial pallet put-away to a reserved area is activated and
the following logic applies:
 if received quantity = zero or null, halt the receiving process and send a
“SEE SUPERVISOR” message to RF operator
 if received quantity = standard quantity breakdown, pallet is deemed to be a
full pallet
 if received quantity < standard quantity breakdown, pallet is deemed to be a
partial pallet
 if received quantity > standard quantity breakdown, halt the receiving pro-

Pick Line No

This flag allows you to pick pick line product from a non-pick line location such
as bulk or rack when multiple replenishments for the same product cause
overcrowding in your pick line. This choice is available when the full order
quantity is not available in the pick line location and a replenishment has been
generated.

For example, suppose your order quantity is 10 cases, there are only five
cases in the pick line and the replenishment quantity is 60 cases. The RF
operator can choose to pick the 10 cases from a bulk or non-pick line location
instead of waiting for a replenishment and picking from the pick line. The 10
cases picked from bulk is subtracted from the replenishment quantity; 60 -10 =

Sort Sequence Code Optional


(SOSE)

The sort sequence code used to sequence or “snake” the pick list of picking
tasks in RFPIC. You can apply these advanced SQL statements to either item
codes, location codes or inventory entities.

When you activate sort sequencing, the RF operator can initially pick any item,
location or inventory entity from the sorted list, but once this initial choice is
made the RF operator must finish picking the item, location or inventory entity
in RFPIC before proceeding to another item, location or inventory entity.

For example, suppose you set up a sort sequence based on item and there
are three different items on a given order: item A, item B and item C. When the
RF operator enters RFPIC and selects any item on the order — say item B —
he or she must pick all order lines containing item B before picking another
item. The same logic applies to the remaining items on the order; once a given
item is selected, all order lines containing that item must be picked before pro-
ceeding to another item.

inventory levels match the inventory levels of a single picked pallet with a
countback variance.

If you leave this field blank, an ICIN record will be created for the current pallet
being picked only should that pallet have a variance during an RFPIC count-
back. All other pallets for unconfirmed orders containing the same inventory
will NOT be assigned an ICIN record.

When a supervisor logs into RFPIC to investigate a variance, the following

If the supervisor enters Y for Resolved, no ICIN record will be created for the
current pallet being picked if there is a variance. However, ICIN records will be
created for all other pallets on open orders whose first three inventory levels
match the inventory levels of the current pallet.

When selecting the resolved option, the supervisor will be prompted to confirm
the quantity. If the supervisor quantity matches the system quantity, no ICIN
record is created. If the supervisor quantity does not match the system quan-
tity, one of the following will occur:
 if the quantity entered is less than the system quantity, the difference will be
placed on SUSP hold and the required number of ICIN records will be gen-
erated
 if the quantity entered is greater than the system quantity, the prompt “Move
excess to designated location with label” will display and the required num-

you can log on to a RF device using this password.

Extra Charge Setup for RF

You can add extra charges to a receipt or order in RF using the program RFEC (RF Extra Charge). You can
also enter extra charges directly in RFPIC (for outbound orders) and in RFCH (for inbound receipts). You
activate extra charge entry in RF by making the appropriate changes to your extra charge profile in ECHP

Warehouse Zones (WHZO)

In this program, you subdivide your warehouse into separate zones. Each zone can be considered a separate
work area and the same order or receipt can be assigned to multiple RF operators working in different zones.
A zone can be a section of your warehouse or a set of racks (for example, all floor-level racks could be zone
1, all second-level racks could be zone 2, etc.).
There are seven zone types in WHZO:

Directed Put-Away Directed put-away zones allow you to define overflow sequences for directed
put-away in the Overflow Sequence Block. For example, if no locations are
available in put-away zone 1, try put-away zone 2 then put-away zone 3.

General General zones have no collection or drop off points assigned to them.

Sorting Area Sorting Area zones types have a drop off point assigned to them; that is, they
require a location code in the header block of WHZO.

Material Handling Type This zone type is used for material handling type integration.

P&D P & D zones types have a collection point assigned to them; that is, they
require a location code in the header block of WHZO.

Interleaving Interleaving zone types are used in RFITLV.

Voice Voice zone types are used for voice-activated picking.

Allocated Lines Multiple Location Lines NOT Allowed

If you set this field to Multiple Location Lines Allowed, AccellosOne 3PL will
not create additional order lines when an order line picks from more than one
location. If you set this field to Multiple Location Lines NOT Allowed, Accel-
losOne 3PL will create additional order lines to ensure that no order line has
more than one location line.

For example, if an order line of 30 cases requires picks from three different
locations, AccellosOne 3PL will create two additional order lines for a total of
three: line 1 (10 cases), line 2 (15 cases) and line 3 (5 cases).

The Multiple Location Lines NOT Allowed option requires P-type order lines in
ENOR.

The advantage of this feature is faster picking of large order lines by splitting
the work into multiple tasks that can be performed by multiple operators. If you
activate this feature, three operators could work on the same order line if that
line picked from three different locations. If you deactivate this feature, the
entire order line could only be picked by a single operator.

Outbound Pallet Building

Outbound Pallet Building

The Pallet Build engine allows you to generate picking assignments (outbound pallets) based on predefined
pallet building rules. The built pallets are stored in the database, allowing you to view and evaluate pending
work in either Pulse or d'Amigo. Pallet building is only available for orders assigned to a wave in Wave
Manager and picked in RFITLV (RF Interleaving).
The Pallet Build engine will automatically generate pallet build assignments based on the following rules:
 all cartons must be on the same order
 the maximum cube for full pallet/half pallet (REGI) cannot be exceeded
 the maximum weight (REGI) cannot be exceeded
 “like” product (that is, the same alternate reporting type/code) will be kept together (ITEM)
 the pallet build restrictions defined in IPBR must be respected
There are four setup programs for the Pallet Build engine:
 IPBR (Item Pallet Build Restrictions)
 ITEM (Item Codes)
 REGI (Task Profile)
 CONS (Consignees)
In IPBR you set up your pallet build restrictions, defining which items can be placed together on the same
pallet. For example, if you add the code R1 in the Header Block and the code R2 in the Detail Block, items
assigned your R1 pallet restriction code can never be placed on the same pallet as items assigned your R2
pallet restriction code.
If you select the Allow Only on Top checkbox, items assigned the pallet build restriction code in the Detail
Block can be placed on top of but not underneath items assigned the pallet build restriction code in the
Header Block. Your IPBR code is then attached to the appropriate items in ITEM.

item). The Pallet Build engine will not allow you to place heavier items on top of lighter items.
Stackability Quantity in Highest SKU In this field, you define the maximum number of units that can be
stacked on top of each other. For example, if the item’s highest SKU is cases and you enter 10 in this field,

 the picking path mode or sequence in which locations are picked
 the sort sequence code (if any) and picking path mode
 the alternate reporting type/code for a pallet assignment
 the maximum pallet weight and/or cube for a pallet assignment when that pallet assignment contains
mixed product
REGI is a mandatory setup program for the following programs/functions:
 voice-activated picking
 outbound pallet building
 picking by assignment in RFPV
 task interleaving in RFITLV
If you pick by order line in RFPIC and do not use assignments, task profiles are not required.

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Picking Path Mode Cartons for one item all on one pallet
With this option, work assignments will be sequenced in item code order. That
is, the first item on the order will be picked first followed by any other order
lines containing that item. Only after the first item is fully picked will Accel-
losOne 3PL start picking the second item.

This option ignores any weight and cube limits that you define for a pallet.
Once the RF operator starts picking an item, all product goes on the current
pallet regardless.

If the first item is fully picked and there is room on the pallet, the second item
will be picked and placed on the same pallet.

NOTE This picking path mode will lead to more pallets containing a single
item only, but at the cost of more travel time because of skipped locations.

Keep items together as much as possible


Same as “Cartons for one item all on one pallet”, but pallet weight and cube
limits are enforced. That means that one item can be split into two or more
pallets if required.

Pick in location sequence, do not split order lines


With this option, work assignments will be sequenced in location code
sequence, but the splitting of order lines will not be allowed. For example, sup-
pose you define 250 lbs. as your maximum pallet weight and you have four
order lines in the following location code sequence: line 1 (100 lbs.), line 2
(100 lbs.), line 3 (100 lbs) and line 4 (50 lbs.).

AccellosOne 3PL will sequence your work assignments as follows: line 1, line
2, line 4 and line 3. That is, line 4 will be picked before line 3 because adding
line 3 to lines 1 and 2 would lead to a split order line, while adding line 4 to
lines 1 and 2 would not.

Pick in wine sequence

Overview of Put-Away

Overview of Put-Away

There are two ways of putting away product in AccellosOne 3PL:


 In two-step put-away, you unload the receipt and use RFCH to place the product in a staging loca-
tion and then perform final put-away in RFPU. If auto-confirmation is activated in DIFP, no confirmation
of the receipt is required in CHRF (Time-Stamp and Confirm Receipt).
 In one-step put-away, you unload the receipt and use RFCH to put-away the product in a final non-
staging location with no processing in RFPU. After final put-away in RFCH, you must confirm the receipt
in CHRF (Time-Stamp and Confirm Receipt).
If your flows are correctly defined in DIFP, you can switch from one-step put-away to two-step put-away or
from two-step put-away to one-step put-away as often as required within the same account.

1 OFFICE
ENRE You enter the receipt in ENRE (Enter,
Modify and Delete Receipt).

2 OFFICE

INBOUND PROCESSING
Understanding Inbound Flows in RF

Understanding Inbound Flows in RF

In non-RF receiving, you time-stamp and advance the flow of a receipt in CHRF (Time-Stamp and Confirm
Receipts). Advancing the flow of a receipt in CHRF advances the flow of all receipt lines and receipt location
lines on the receipt. You cannot advance the flow of one receipt line and leave another receipt line remain at
its original flow.
In RF receiving, on the other hand, AccellosOne 3PL automatically advances the flow of individual receipt
lines and receipt location lines. For example, when you unload product in RFCH, the receipt line’s flow is
automatically advanced from STUN (Start Unloading) to INST (Inbound Staged). Because the flow of
individual receipt lines is advanced as each receipt line is unloaded, not all lines on a given receipt will be at
the same flow. When this happens, the receipt header will show the earliest flow on the receipt.
For example, suppose there are five receipt lines on a given receipt: two lines are at the flow STUN, two lines
are at the flow INST and one line is at the flow STPU (Start Put-Away). If you look up the receipt in LORE, the
receipt’s flow will be set to STUN, which is the earliest flow.

Overview of the Unique Identifier (UI)

The unique identifier (UI) is a single value that represents an inventory entity defined down to the lowest
inventory level. For example, the UI value of ABC001 could represent item A1, lot 101, pallet ID 10 belonging
to customer A.
Unique Identifiers make it possible to enter a single value in the core RF program such as RFCH, RFPU,
RFRL, RFRP and RFPIC that identifies the product that you are working with. When you enter this value,
AccellosOne 3PL automatically populates the customer code and inventory level fields with the correct
values.
AccellosOne 3PL can automatically generate these values when you receive inventory in ENRE or you can
manually create the values yourself.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 139


INBOUND PROCESSING
Unloading Product in RFCH

NOTE Depending on how you track your customers’ inventory, the unique identifier
may or may not be unique across customers. For example, suppose you have two
customers: customer A whose inventory is tracked by item code/lot number/pallet ID
and customer B whose inventory is tracked by item code and lot number. Customer A
could have “001” as the unique identifier representing a particular pallet ID and cus-
tomer B could have “001” as the unique identifier representing a particular lot number.

When this happens, if both inventory entities are on open receipts at the appropriate
flow, entering “001” in the UI field of RFCH will result in pick list from which the RF
operator must select the appropriate inventory.

Unloading Product in RFCH

In this program, you unload your receipt and place it either in a staging location (if you are going to perform
final put-away in RFPU) or in a non-staging location (if you are performing one-step put-away with no
processing in RFPU). Your receipt must be at the flow DRDO (Driver Arrived) before you can unload it. If the
product that you are receiving is not on the original receipt, you can create a new line for the product in
RFCH.
RFCH supports two types of receipt lines:
 P type in which AccellosOne 3PL generates your pallet ID or you enter your pallet ID’s manually during
receipt entry in ENRE (for the purposes of RF, P type includes the following line types in ENRE: I for In-
Transit, H for Handling Only and S for Storage Only)
 U type in which inventory level 2 or higher is unknown at the time of receipt entry (also known as blind
receiving)
With P-type lines (that is, all inventory levels have been entered in ENRE), you can enter your lowest
inventory level and RFCH will retrieve the receipt number and all other inventory levels. With U-type lines
(that is, one or more inventory levels have not been entered in ENRE), you must enter your receipt number
and all inventory levels.

CAUTION RFCH does not support multiple operators working on the same receipt
when these operators are working in different modes. If you allow multiple operators
to work on the same receipt, make sure that all operators are working in the same
mode — either unload mode or put-away mode.

OTHER If you want AccellosOne 3PL to generate your pallet ID’s or other inventory levels,
you must set the Method of Generating/Validating Values flag in DILP (Depositor
Inventory Level Profile) to W for Warehouse for that level. As well, the Warehouse
Code field in the receipt header must be populated. See the Setup Guide for
further information on DILP and DIAP.

If you wish to define a default staging and put-away warehouse, you can enter a
warehouse code in either the header block of ENRE (for a given receipt) or in
CUST (for all receipts for a given customer). If you enter a default warehouse
code in both ENRE and CUST, the ENRE code will override the CUST code.

If you wish to display a depositor print message set up in DPME, attach a docu-
ment code of TALY to your message code in DPME. DPME messages for RFCH
require specific customer/carrier/shipper combinations; you cannot use the “.ALL”
codes.

NOTE A DPME message for RFCH does not actually print unless you set up a
real tally document in DOCU and then attach this tally document to an inbound
flow in DIFP.

RESTRICTIONS RFCH does not support lines that have been partially received in ENRE. A line is
considered partially received if you add a location line record in ENRE to a receipt
line and the quantity of the location line is less than the full number of units for the
receipt line.

REQUIREMENTS — One-Step Manual Put-Away (1)

In one-step manual put-away, you unload your receipt and place it in a final non-staging location with no

ENTERING PARTIAL U-TYPE RECEIPT LINES


You can enter partial U-type receipt lines in RFCH by entering the partial quantity (for example, 10 cases) and
then keying in N for No when prompted to complete the process. You use partial receipt lines when product
on a trailer is dispersed and you are not sure whether you have processed all product belonging to a
particular inventory entity. You also use partial receipt lines when you wish to place part of a receipt on hold;
for example, you receive a pallet of 100 cases and 20 cases are damaged.
When you enter partial receipt lines in RFCH, two lines are created in ENRE/LORE. The first line shows the
number of units actually received and the second line shows the remaining number of units. For example, if
your expected quantity is 100 and your received quantity is 10, the following receipt lines will be created:
 line 1: expected qty = 100, received qty = 10
 line 2: expected qty = 0, received qty = 90
If you receive additional units of the same product, line 2 will show the new quantity received and line 3 will
show the new remaining number of units.

1) You received 10 units out of an expected quantity of 100.

UNDERSTANDING VARIANCES IN RFCH


A variance occurs when the quantity actually received does not match the quantity on the receipt. There are
two ways of calculating variances depending on the type of line:
 If all inventory levels are entered during receipt entry (that is, a P-type line), variances are calculated at
the line level (that is, the lowest inventory level).
 If not all inventory levels are entered during receipt entry (that is, a U-type line), variances are calculated
at the next highest level that is known. For example, if levels 1 and 2 are known and level 3 is unknown,
the variance will be calculated for inventory level 2. If, however, level 1 is known and levels 2 and 3 are
unknown, the variance will be calculated for inventory level 1.
For example, suppose you received the following product on the same receipt and level three (pallet ID) is
system-generated:

LINE 1 LINE 2
Item = A1 Item = A1
Lot = 101 Lot = 101
Pallet ID = 001 Pallet ID = 002
Quantity = 100 Quantity = 50

If you enter a quantity of 85 for line 1 and a quantity of 65 for line 2, no variance will occur in RFCH because
the total (85 + 65 = 150) equals the total in ENRE for item A1, lot 101.
If you enter a quantity of 120 for line 1 and a quantity of 45 for line 2, a variance will occur in RFCH because
the total (120 + 45 = 165) does not equal 150. If you accept the variance of 15 units, the extra 15 units will be

applied to line 1; you cannot split an overage or adjustment between two pallet ID’s belonging to the same lot
number.

NOTE All variances in RFCH are shown in the lowest SKU. For example, if your
item is a pallet/case/each item, any variances will be shown in eaches — not pallets
or cases.

PROCESSING VARIANCES
If the RFCH/RFPU Quantity Must Match ENRE Quantity flag in MRFP is set to “Must Match ENRE”, you
cannot enter variances in RFCH. When the quantity received does not match the quantity on the receipt, the
following message will appear and you must either enter the correct quantity or exit the receipt line.

If the RFCH/RFPU Quantity Must Match ENRE Quantity flag in MRFP is set to “Matching not required”, you

supervisory privileges.

There are four different hold options in RFPU:

If you enter a shortage … You can place a manual hold on the difference between the
expected quantity and the received quantity. For example, if the
quantity staged in RFCH is 100 units and you enter 80 for the same
receipt line in RFPU, AccellosOne 3PL will place 20 units on the
hold that you specify.

If directed put-away is activated on your system, the system-assigned warehouse and location will be
displayed. You can accept the system-assigned warehouse and location or you can enter a new warehouse
and location. If directed put-away is not activated on your system, you must enter your put-away location and
warehouse manually. You can eliminate the need to enter a warehouse in RFPU by defining a default
warehouse in the header block ENRE (for a given receipt) or in CUST (for all receipts from a given customer).
If automatic confirmation is activated, RFPU advances the receipt’s flow to CORE. Therefore, you cannot
work on or make adjustments to the receipt after processing it in RFPU.

Overview of Shipping

There are up to nine steps to follow in outbound RF processing:

1 You enter your order in ENOR (Enter, Modify and


ENOR Delete Order).

2 If required, you set up your loads in SELO (Set Up


SELO Load).

3 You allocate your orders either in the Wave


Allocation Manager or in PROR/ASOR.

4 If required, you assign RF operators to order lines


RFOT in RFOT (RF Operator Task Assign).

5 You pick your orders in RFPIC/RFPK/RFPV. If your


RFPIC/
RFPK/RFPV
system is set up for pallet building, you must enter
the pallet ID of your new pallet.

6 You assign buildings and doors to loads in SELO


SELO (Set Up Load).

7 If required, you assign RF operators to orders/loads


RFOT in RFOT (RF Operator Task Assign).

8 You load your orders in OLOP (Outbound Loading


OLOP Process).

9 Depending on the flows in your workflow profile,


CHOF you may have to confirm your orders in CHOF
(Time-Stamp and Confirm Orders).

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 195


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Understanding Outbound Flows in RF

Understanding Outbound Flows in RF

In non-RF shipping, you time-stamp and advance the flow of an order in CHOF (Time-Stamp and Confirm
Orders). Advancing the flow of an order in CHOF advances the flow of all order lines and order location lines
on the order. You cannot advance the flow of one order line and leave another order line remain at its original
flow.
In RF shipping, on the other hand, AccellosOne 3PL automatically advances the flow of individual order lines
and order location lines. For example, when you pick an order line in RFPIC, the order line’s flow is automati-
cally advanced from STPI (Start Picking) to FIPI (Finish Picking). Because the flow of individual order lines is
advanced as each order line is picked, not all lines on a given order will be at the same flow. When this
happens, the order header will show the earliest flow on the order.
For example, suppose there are five order lines on a given order: two lines are at the flow STPI, two lines are
at the flow FIPI and one line is at the flow STLO (Start Loading). If you look up the order in LOOR, the order’s
flow will be set to STPI, which is the earliest flow.

CAUTION Using CHOF to confirm orders in an RF environment is not recom-


mended unless all order lines are at the same flow. If line 1 is at the STPI flow and
line 2 is at the FIPI flow, advancing the order header to the STLO flow in CHOF will
also advance line 1 to STLO. At which point, line 1 may no longer be pickable.

Understanding Pick Methods

Pick methods allow you to split order lines into two or more pick method assignments. For example, if your
order line quantity was two pallets and 10 cases, you might want to assign one RF operator with a forklift to
pick the two pallets and another RF operator with a different piece of equipment to pick the 10 cases. Without
pick methods, you would be forced to assign the entire order line quantity to a single RF operator using a
single piece of equipment. This could be an inefficient use of resources.
Pick methods also allow you to define a sequence for your picking; for example, pick cases/eaches first
because it is complex and time-consuming and pick full pallets last because it is simple and straightforward.
Different pick methods can have different label printing requirements; you can attach different customer/
consignee/carrier combinations to a particular pick method/document in CCDU (Customer/Consignee
Document Setup).
Pick methods are assigned to order lines in the Wave Manager based on the order line quantity and your item
setup. For example, if your order line quantity is one pallet, the pick method will be set to PALL.

Overview of RF Picking Programs

Order line assigned CART pick method

Overview of RF Picking Programs

There are four possible RF picking programs in AccellosOne 3PL: RFPIC, RFPK, RFPV and RFINVT.

RFPIC (RF PICK)


This program is AccellosOne 3PL’s most basic picking program. it is a system-assisted environment in which
the RF operator can select individual order lines to work on and enjoys considerable latitude in determining
the sequence of picks.
 Orders can be allocated through either Wave Manager or ASOR/PROR.
 Picking is based on orders and order lines only; there is no support for task profiles and any order
assignments must be created manually in RFOT.
 Pallet building is performed manually by the RF operator.
 Any pick methods assigned to the order by the Wave Manager are ignored.
 Consolidated pick using wave number is supported but you cannot restrict by warehouse zone.

RFPK (RF WAVE PICK)


This program is AccellosOne 3PL’s most advanced picking program. Many of the task that are performed
manually by the RF operator in RFPIC are automated in RFPK.
 Only orders that have been waved in the Wave Manager can be picked.

198 4.0.1* RF GUIDE


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Picking Orders in RFPIC

 Pick method assignment is performed by Wave Manager during allocation.


 System-driven cartonization is supported.

RFPV (RF PICKING VOICE)


This program is the RF equivalent of voice-activated picking. It allows you to pick certain orders or products
using a standard RF gun rather than your voice-activated equipment.
 Orders can be allocated through either Wave Manager or ASOR/PROR.
 RF operator must be set up in RFOP and REGI must be configured.
 Pallet build assignment is performed dynamically in real time rather than through the Wave Manger.

RFINVT (RF INTERLEAVING)


This program supports task interleaving.
 Orders can be allocated through either Wave Manager or ASOR/PROR.
 RF operator must be set up in RFOP and REGI must be configured.
 Pallet build assignment is performed by Wave Manager during allocation.

Picking Orders in RFPIC

RFPIC is AccellosOne 3PL’s most basic picking program. You can pick product by zone or by order number.
Orders must be fully allocated before you can pick them in RFPIC. You cannot pick an order if some lines are
allocated (R-type) and other lines are unallocated (P-type).
If you are picking full pallets from bulk, you scan in the original pallet ID of the pallet and use this pallet ID for
the duration of the outbound process. If you are picking cases from either bulk or the pick line, you scan in the
original pallet ID for each case pick. When you finish building your pallet, you have two options for the
outbound pallet containing mixed product:
 if AccellosOne 3PL generates your pallet ID for outbound pallets, you generate your label and then send
it to the appropriate printer
 if you use your own preprinted labels for outbound pallets, you enter or scan in the preprinted pallet ID
When you finish generating or scanning in your pallet ID label, you can look up your pallet ID in the
Processing Block of LOOR for each item on the pallet.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 199


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Picking Orders in RFPIC

If the product that you are picking is not in its assigned location, you have two options. If you know where the
product is, you can go to that location and pick it. If you do not know where the product is, you can place the
product on hold to indicate that it could not be picked.

CASE PICKING There are three requirements for case picking:


 you need a pallet ID label defined in DOCU (Documents)

 this label must be attached to the appropriate customers/consignees in CCDU


(Customer / Consignee Document Setup)
 you need an outbound item process code called CP (Case Pick) in IPRO (Item
Processes)

NOTE Your CP code set up in IPRO must NOT be attached to the IPRP profile
attached to ITEM.

If you want AccellosOne 3PL to generate a unique pallet ID for each pallet label,
there are three additional requirements:
 you need to set up a code in NUSE (Number Series)

 you need to attach to your NUSE code to a DIAP (Depositor Inventory Assign
Profile) called QRS
 you need to set the Outbound Pallet ID Label field on the RFPIC (2) tab in
MRFP to either option 2 or option 3

NOTE Your QRS code set up in DIAP must NOT be attached to DILP (Depos-
itor Inventory Level Profile).

PICKING PRODUCT WITH PROCESS VALUES


If you are picking cases from a pallet and if there is a balance remaining on the pallet, AccellosOne 3PL will
prompt you to scan each case ID. If you are unable to scan in each case ID on the pallet for any reason,
AccellosOne 3PL will present you with the following options:

1 (Continue) Continue to scan the remaining cases on the pallet.

2 (Start Over) Rescan all cases starting from the beginning.

PICKING PARTIAL QUANTITIES OF PRODUCT WITH PROCESS VALUES


When picking a partial quantity from a full pallet that has not been picked before and is in a single location,
you can scan in the cases to be removed rather than the cases to be picked. A partial quantity is defined as
60% or more of the total quantity in the location. For example, if there are 50 cases in a location and you need
to pick 30, you can scan in the 20 cases to be removed rather than the 30 cases to be picked.
This option is designed to save time by reducing the number of cases scanned. It is only available if the
Number of Days for Label Validation in RF Picking field in MRFP is blank or set to zero.

1 Enter RFPIC.
2 Select the product that you wish to pick from the pick list of order lines.

PLACING PRODUCT ON HOLD


You place product on hold if the product that you wish to pick is damaged or missing. You can place a whole
pallet on hold or you can place one or more individual cases on hold. When you place a hold on individual
cases, the number of units placed on hold depends on whether the account is a regular account or a reserve
logic account.
For regular accounts, the hold applies to the remaining number of units on the order line. For reserve logic
accounts, the hold applies to the remaining number of units in the entire warehouse up to the inventory level
that you are reserving at. For example, if you reserve at level 2 and place a partial hold on pallet ID 123, the
hold will apply to all pallet ID’s in your warehouse for the same level 1 and 2 values.
When you place product on hold, AccellosOne 3PL creates a new line for the missing or damaged product
and then attempts to allocate the line. For example, suppose you have two orders lines, one of which is
missing 10 cases. AccellosOne 3PL will create a third order line for the order with a quantity of 10 cases and
then attempt to allocate this line.
Product placed on hold in RFPIC will be assigned the hold code of SUSP (Suspend) in LOEN (Look Up
Inventory).

PICKING PICK LINE PRODUCT FROM A NON-PICK LINE LOCATION


You can allow operators to pick pick line product from a non-pick line location such as bulk or rack when
multiple replenishments for the same product cause overcrowding in your pick line. This choice is available
when the full order quantity is not available in the pick line location and a replenishment has been generated.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 219


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Picking Orders in RFPIC

For example, suppose your order quantity is 10 cases, there are only five cases in the pick line and the
replenishment quantity is 60 cases. The operator can choose to pick the 10 cases from a bulk or non-pick line
location instead of waiting for a replenishment and picking from the pick line. The 10 cases picked from bulk
is subtracted from the replenishment quantity; 60 -10 = 50.

To activate pick line picking from a non-pick line location, you must set the flag in MRFP called Allow Picking

PERFORMING REPLENISHMENTS IN RFPIC


You can allow operators to perform replenishments in RFPIC if their equipment permits it; you can either allow

trailer/seal number only, temperature and trailer/seal number, etc. — depends on which option you choose in
the Show Temperature and Pallet Blocks field in MRFP.

Looking Up Your OPID’s

There are three ways of looking up your OPID’s (outbound pallet ID’s):
 from the desktop program LOCN (Look Up Carton)
 in the RF program RFNCO (OPID Look-Up)
 from the desktop program LOOR (Look Up Orders)

LOOKING UP YOUR OPID’S IN LOCN


You can look up OPID’s (outbound pallet ID’s) in LOCN (Look Up Carton). OPID’s are created when you
perform case picking in RFPIC. When you look up OPID’s, AccellosOne 3PL shows the customer code, level
1 value, order number and line number for each inventory entity on the pallet.

Picking Cases from a Pick Line in CASE

Picking Cases from a Pick Line in CASE

In this program, you can pick partial quantities (that is, less than a full pallet) from a pick line in Skip mode. In
Skip mode, automatic replenishment is deactivated and the picker can select any pick line inventory from any
pick line location whose level 1 value matches the level 1 value of the order line.
CASE is designed for fast-moving pick lines in which old product (that is, allocating in FIFO/LIFO sequence)
is not an issue and manual procedures are in place to ensure that the pick line never runs out of product. If
you activate Skip mode, you will not be able to pick partial quantities from a pick line in RFPIC.
When you allocate an order in Skip mode, the following events occur in AccellosOne 3PL:
 the P-type order line for the pick line quantity will not be changed to R for Regular
 the Location Status field of the order header will be updated to “Entered”, but no locations will be
assigned to the order lines
 no replenishments will be generated

NOTE If the order quantity is such that both a bulk pick and a pick line pick are
required (for example, order quantity = 110 cases or 1 pallet/10 cases), AccellosOne
3PL will create a second order line for the pick line pick. However, the non-pick line
pick will allocate normally; that is, the P-type line will change to R for Regular.

Picking Substitution

Picking Substitution

Picking substitution allows RF operators to pick product other than the allocated product on the order line.
Depending on the options that you choose, the substituted product:
 may or may not be allocated to another order
 may or may not be from the same location
 may or may not have the same FIFO attributes
 may or may not have the same level 2/3/4 values
Regardless of the option that you choose, if the original order line has a hold code, the substituted product
must have the same hold.
Picking substitution is designed to achieve faster picking and increased productivity for the warehouse by
allowing operators to pick the most accessible product in a given location or area without sacrificing FIFO or
other picking requirements.
It is only available for RF picking in the program RFPIC. When the picker enters an inventory level value other
than the value of the allocated line, AccellosOne 3PL will evaluate a) whether picking substitution is allowed
and b) if it is allowed, whether the product picked as a substitute is acceptable.

NOTE Picking substitution offers more flexibility at picking time than does reserve
logic. You can pick product from a location other than the pick location, you can pick
product whose level 2/3/4 value is not an exact match of the product on the order, you
can pick product with a variable quantity breakdown and you can pick product on
another open order.

If picking substitution is not activated, the picker can only pick product not on the order line if reserve logic is
activated.

SETTING UP PICKING SUBSTITUTION


There are three steps to follow in setting up picking substitution.
 You set up your picking substitution rules in PSPR (RF Substitution Profile Code).
 You attach your RF substitution profile code to PIPR (Picking Profile Code).
 You attach your PIPR profile code to the appropriate records in ITEM, CONS, CCOP, HOLD or DSRP.

SETTING UP YOUR PICKING SUBSTITUTION RULES IN PSPR


You set up your picking substitution rules in PSPR. Picking substitution rules are always location type
dependent; that means that you can set up one set of picking substitution rules for your rack locations and a
completely different set of picking substitution rules for your pick line locations.

Range in Days Mode A = Allocated Lot, allocation time (default)


O = Oldest Lot

If you select A for Allocated Lot, your range in days value will be based on the
originally allocated product’s receipt/expiry date. If you select O for Oldest Lot,
your range in days value will be based on the oldest lot at the time of alloca-
tion.

Range in Days from Orig- Only available if Range in Days Mode = blank or A for Allocated Lot, if relative
inally Allocated Entity FIFO picking is activated in PIPR and if the PSPR rule “Substitute product
must have equivalent FIFO attributes” is chosen

The number of days that the substituted product’s receipt/expiry date can
exceed the originally allocated product’s receipt/expiry date.

EXAMPLE
Suppose you set the Range in Days from Oldest Lot to 10 in PIPR and the
Range in Days from Originally Allocated Entity in PSPR to 5. During alloca-
tion, AccellosOne 3PL selects Jan. 7 as the lot to pick even though the oldest
lot is Jan. 1. If the picker elects to pick substitute product in RFPIC, any lot up
to Jan 12 will be accepted.

If you leave this field blank, the value of zero will be assumed and the substi-
tuted product’s receipt/expiry date must match the original product’s receipt/
expiry date.

NOTE If your customer has specific FIFO rules such as never ship any-
thing with a date greater than 20 days from the oldest lot, you must make sure
that the sum of the Range in Days from Oldest Lot value in PIPR and the
Range in Days from Originally Allocated Entity value in PSPR does not
exceed 20.

For example, you could set both values to 10 (10 + 10 = 20) or your PIPR
value could be 15 and your PSPR value could be 5. However, you could not
set your PIPR value to 15 and your PSPR value to 10 because product with a
date greater than 20 days from the oldest lot might be shipped.

Range in Days from Old- Only available if Range in Days Mode = O for Oldest Lot, if relative FIFO pick-
est Lot During Allocation ing is activated in PIPR and if the PSPR rule “Substitute product must have
equivalent FIFO attributes” is chosen

The number of days that the substituted product’s receipt/expiry date can
exceed the oldest lot at the time of allocation.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 243


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Picking Substitution

There are five logical groups in PSPR. Each group has two or more mutually exclusive options. From each
group, you select the appropriate option.

Do not use stock allocated to other orders as substitute


Use stock allocated to other orders for same location only (not available if the picking substi-
tution profile code attached to the customer differs from the picking substitution code
attached to the consignee)

Substitute product must come from same location only


Substitute product must come from same type of locations (LOTP)
Substitute product can come from any location (not available for pick line locations)

Substitute product must have equivalent FIFO attributes


Ignore FIFO requirement for substitute product

Substitute product must be same inventory up to level 1


Substitute product must be same inventory up to level 2
Substitute product must be same inventory up to level 3
Substitute product must be same inventory up to level 4

Use traditional range in days mode


Use extended range in days mode based on all allocated order lines

The traditional range in days mode option looks at a single order only. The extended range in
days option, on the other hand, looks at all allocated order lines. For example, if your range
in days value is 5, the substituted product’s receipt/expiry date can exceed the receipt /
expiry date of any allocated product that has not been picked.

NOTE The picking substitution rules that you define in PSPR override any picking
parameters that you define in ILOP. For example, if you select “pick to clean” in ILOP
and if the operator decides to pick from another location, that location may not satisfy
the pick to clean requirement. In other words, the operator may pick from a less desir-
able location according to ILOP.

well to customers, the following logic will apply:
 the profile that you attach to DSRP is the default
 if you attach a picking profile to ITEM, it will override the profile in DSRP
 if you attach a picking profile to CONS, it will override the profiles in DSRP and ITEM (you cannot use
the “Use stock allocated to other orders for same location” option in PSPR when attaching a picking pro-

LOOKING UP SUMMARY INFORMATION


The summary function in UOPR shows the weight and number of pieces that you have already scanned in as
well as the weight and number of pieces that have not been scanned in. Summaries are calculated at two
levels in UOPR: the order level and the item level.
Summaries at the order level show the weight and number of pieces that have been scanned for the entire
order. Summaries at the item level are grouped by level 1; if you have multiple lines on the same order
containing the same level 1 value, the summary will show a total for each level 1. These summaries show
both the weight and number of pieces that have been scanned as well as the weight and number of pieces
that have not been scanned.

TRANSFERRING INBOUND PROCESS VALUES TO OUTBOUND ORDERS


If the automatic transfer of inbound process values to outbound orders is activated on your system, the
process values attached to the product will be automatically transferred to the order when you enter or scan in
your order number in UOPR.
The following restrictions apply to the transfer of process values:
 You cannot transfer process values if one or more values is missing. For example, if you have five cases
on one full pallet and one of the cases is missing a process value, you cannot transfer the process val-
ues in UOPR. You must enter the missing catch weight(s) in ENOR and then return to UOPR to perform
the transfer.
 You cannot transfer process values if you have two or more inventory entities that are identical. For
example, you have two pallets with the same level 1/2/3 values and you wish to ship out a single pallet.
 Unless you are clearing out all inventory, the quantity being shipped must always equal one full pallet (or
one drum if drum is assigned to the highest SKU class). For example, if you ship in cases, the number of
cases that you ship must equal one full pallet.

SETTING UP CATCH WEIGHT TOLERANCES


You can define catch weight tolerances for each item in ITEM. If a catch weight for that item exceeds the
allowed tolerance, the weight will be rejected and the receipt or order cannot be confirmed until a catch
weight within the permissible range is entered. For example, if the net weight of a pallet is defined as 100 lbs.
for a given item in ITEM and the weight tolerance percentage is 5% for that item, you cannot enter a catch
weight of greater than 105 lbs. or less than 95 lbs. in any RF program.

Catch weight tolerances apply to the following RF programs: RFOPS (Outbound Process Scan), RFIPS

Entering Process Values in RFOPS

You enter process values in RFOPS. There are two process values that you enter in this program: catch
weight and serial number. You can scan a bar code that contains these two values or you can enter them
manually.
RFOPS maintains a running total by both weight and number of pieces. The running total shows the weight
and number of pieces that have been scanned in as well as the weight and number of pieces that have not
been scanned in.
If a label has been scanned in error, you can remove it by means of the Remove command. If a case has
been scanned in error, you can remove it from the remaining number of cases to be scanned by means of the
Reduce command.

PROCESS VAL- For the UCC-128 label, you require two process values in RFOPS: one for catch
UES weights and one for serial numbers. These codes must be set up in IPRO (Item
Process) with the Create Automatic Records flag set to Y for Yes and then
attached to a profile in IPRP (Item Process Profile). The IPRP profile must in turn
be attached to the item(s) requiring the process values.

Because you are capturing a weight, the item(s) should assigned the appropriate
non-standard weight option in ITEM.

See the section “Item Process Values” in the Operations 2 Guide for further infor-
mation about process values.

SCAN PARAME- You need a scan parameter profile defined in SCPR (Scan Parameter Code)*.
TER CODE For the UCC-128 label, this profile must contain a minimum of two records in the
Detail Block: one record for your scanned in weight and another record for your
scanned in serial number. The SCPR profile must in turn be attached to the item
requiring the process values.

If you wish to scan in your lowest inventory level as a unique identifier, you must
define your scan parameters in SCPR and attach your scan parameter code to
your bar code profile in BAPR (Bar Code Profile).

CAPTURING THE WEIGHT DYNAMICALLY FROM A BAR CODE


The locate weight in bar code dynamically option allows you to scan in the weight from a bar coded label
without knowing which numbers in the bar code represent the product’s weight. Because the format of the bar
code is unknown, you cannot use SCPR (Scan Parameter Profile) to break up the code into its component
parts.
The following requirements must be met before you can locate the weight in a bar code dynamically:
 All bar codes for a given order line must have the same length.
 The weight portion of the bar code for a given order line must all have the same length; if a weight is less
than the full length, it must be padded with zeros.
 All weights for a given order line must fall within a range of 10 times heavier or lighter than the first case.
For example, if case 1 weighs 100 lbs., case 2 cannot weigh more than 1,000 lbs. or less than 10 lbs.
 The locate weight option must be activated in IPRO by setting the Locate Weight in Bar Code Dynami-
cally flag to Y for Yes for a given process code. This process code must be attached to an item process
profile code in IPRP (Item Process Profile), which in turn must be attached to the appropriate item(s) in
ITEM.

RF GUIDE 4.0.1* 265


OUTBOUND PROCESSING
Entering Process Values in RFOPS

IPRO screen showing Locate Weight in Bar Code Dynamically flag set to Y for Yes

The operator scans in the full bar code and then manually enters the weight for the first three cartons. If the
manually entered weight matches the bar code weight in all three cartons on the same order line, Accel-
losOne 3PL “learns” the position of the weight in the bar code.
If the manually entered weight does not match the bar code weight, the operator will be prompted to either
start over again or rescan the current carton.
EXAMPLE
9991234999 (Label 1)
9991356999 (Label 2)
9991426999 (Label 3)

Because the position of the weight in label one (positions 4 through 7) matches the position of the weight in
labels two and three, AccellosOne 3PL will read the weight from these positions for all pieces on the order
line.
If the same bar code is scanned twice, the operator will have two choices: accept the duplicate or enter a new
bar code.

Merging OPID’s in RFMG

You can merge two or more outbound pallets into a single pallet in RFMG. For example, suppose you pick 10
cases from a location and build an outbound pallet. Later, you pick 25 cases from the same location and build
a second outbound pallet. You now have two partial pallets and wish to merge the two into a single pallet to
save space.
If your order line does NOT have process values such as serial number or weight, you can merge the entire
quantity of a pallet or a partial quantity. However, if your order line has process values such as serial number
or weight, you cannot merge partial quantities. If you do so, all process values attached to the order line will
be deleted.
The following conditions must be met before you can do a pallet merge:
 The product must be picked from the same location.
 If you attach orders to loads in SELO and warehouse attribute 333 is set to 1, the product being merged
must be on the same load and assigned to the same stop and group.
 Hazardous products cannot be merged with non-hazardous products.
 The same item must be kept together whenever possible if the item quantities are partials. For example,
suppose you have three OPID’s on the same order and each OPID represents a partial pallet. If OPID’s
1 and 2 are the same item and OPID 3 is a different item, OPID’s 1 and 2 can be merged, but 1 and 3 (or
2 and 3) cannot be merged because that would put two different items on the same pallet.
There are two merge options that are configurable in MRFP:

F I E L D D E S C R I P T I O N S ( MI S C E L L A N E O US 2 / 5 TA B)

Allow Merging Orders/ Yes


Items to One OPID Within No

If you select Yes, the RF operator can assign different orders/items to the
same OPID within a given load in RFMG. If you select No, the RF operator
cannot assign different orders/items to the same OPID within a given load in
RFMG.

the RF operator will perform a count for each lot on the order.
If the count matches the order line quantity, the order line will be advanced to the next flow and a time-stamp

You relocate inventory from one location to another in RFRL. The locations that you specify in a relocate can
be within the same warehouse or belong to different warehouses. You cannot relocate inventory if it is on
order or on receipt.
The following restrictions apply to RFRL:
 You cannot relocate product that is on an open order or receipt.
 Relocating inventory does not take into account the location’s capacity. You can move inventory into a
location that is considered “full”.
 If the product is on non-breakable hold, you must relocate all product in the location; you cannot relocate
partial quantities.
If you wish to relocate product to a pick line location, you must set the Validation Rules for Relocate to Pick
Line flag in MRFP to either 2 (Allow operator to proceed) or 3 (Omit validation of location).

You can adjust in inventory when the serial number has never been received or is on a confirmed order. If

has been received and is not picked. If a case is on a full pallet and all cases are available, you can adjust out

Allow Duplicates = Yes for your catch weight value and No for your serial num-
ber value

Then attach your process values to a profile in IPRP (Item Process Profile). The
IPRP profile must in turn be attached to the item(s) requiring the process values.

See the section “Item Process Values” in the Operations 2 Guide for further infor-
mation about process values.

SCAN PARAME- You need a scan parameter profile defined in SCPR (Scan Parameter Code).
TER CODE This profile must contain a minimum of three records in the Detail Block: one
record for your scanned in weight, a second record for your scanned in serial
number and a third record for your scanned in inventory level 1 value. The SCPR
profile must in turn be attached to the item requiring the process values.

BAR CODE PRO- You must define a bar code profile in BAPR and attach to it the scan parameter
FILE code that you set up in SCPR.

Merging Inventory in RFMI

Merging Inventory in RFMI

You can merge and transfer inventory entities in RFMI. You use RFMI when you wish to consolidate two
partial pallets into a single PID or you wish to correct an incorrect inventory level. For example, you received
product under lot number 101, which is wrong, and you want to transfer the product to lot number 102, which
is the correct lot number. Lot 102 can be either an existing lot number or a new lot number created by the
operator in RFMI.
The following requirements must be met before you can merge/transfer inventory in RFMI:
 the product belongs to the same customer
 the customer is billed at the lowest inventory level in DILP
 the product is NOT on an open order or receipt
If you have assigned process values to your product and if you are merging or transferring a full pallet, no
scanning of process values is required as the values are transferred automatically. If, however, you are
working with less than a full pallet, process values must be individually scanned.

R EQU IR E M E N T S

SCAN PARAME- If you use process values to capture catch weights and serial numbers, you need
TER CODE a scan parameter profile defined in SCPR (Scan Parameter Code). This profile
must contain a minimum of three records in the Detail Block: one record for your
scanned in weight, a second record for your scanned in serial number and a third
record for your scanned in inventory level 1 value. The SCPR profile must in turn
be attached to the item requiring the process values.

INVENTORY LEV- You can merge inventory entities at inventory levels other than the lowest (PID)
ELS by setting the Allow Merging Up To Level (RFMG) field in MRFP to the appropri-
ate value: Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.

INVENTORY If your inventory entities have inventory attributes set up in IAPR (Inventory Attri-
ATTRIBUTES butes Profile Code), you cannot perform a merge unless there is an exact match
of attributes (you can deactivate this condition by selecting the Allow RF Merge
flag in IAPR).

VARIABLE QUAN- The Base for Cube/Weight flag in ITEM must be set to Y for Yes for the lowest
TITY BREAK- SKU.

VOICE-ACTIVATED PICKING AND ORDER ASSIGNMENT SYSTEM
Overview

Overview

Voice-activated picking using Vocollect Voice allows you to perform easy, hands-free picking. You can set up
voice profiles defining various Vocollect Voice options and attach these profiles to task profiles that define
which customers, carriers, consignees, items, orders, locations and warehouses can be picked. If required,
voice-directed picking can be combined with scanning when certain inventory levels are too long to be
spoken.
You can also define voice operator overrides that temporarily override an operator’s standard task profiles in
order to perform work that is particularly urgent.
The order assignment system allows you to assign specific orders and/or order lines to specific operators and
define a picking sequence for each order. When the designated operator enters RFPIC, only orders assigned
to that operator will display in the pick list. If required, an operator can cancel order assignments in RFPIC;
when this happens, the order line appears in the pick list of all RF operators.
The order assignment system shares two voice-activated picking programs — RFOP and RFOT — but does
not use voice profiles defined in VOPR and VOPC.

Setting Up Voice-Activated Picking

There are up to eight setup programs for voice-activated picking:


 VOPR (Voice Profile)
 VOPC (Voice Profile - Customer)
 REGI (Task Profile)
 RFOP (RF Operator)
 WARE (Warehouses and Location Format)
 LOCA (Locations)
 REAS (Reason Code)
 MHEC (Material Handling Equipment Code)
There are two voice profiles in voice-activated picking: VOPR and VOPC. VOPR defines properties that are
specific to particular task profiles and operators, while VOPC defines properties that are specific to particular
customers.

SETTING UP YOUR VOICE PROFILE IN VOPR


In this program, you define your voice profiles. A voice profile is a user-defined code that identifies a number
of Vocollect Voice options or properties. When you attach this code to a task profile in REGI and then attach
the task profile to an operator in RFOP, the properties that you define in VOPR will be assigned to the
operator.
You can create a single voice profile for all operators or you can create multiple voice profiles and assign
them to the appropriate task profiles and operators.
In VOPR, you define the following properties:
 whether or not the operator requests work or the system assigns it automatically
 which inventory level(s) the operator will hear for each pick

In this property, you specify whether or not you want AccellosOne 3PL to
prompt the operator for the delivery or staging location and whether or not you
want the operator to confirm the delivery or staging location.

If the order has been assigned an appointment, AccellosOne 3PL will use the
appointment’s door/location as the delivery location. If the order has NOT
been assigned an appointment, AccellosOne 3PL will use the staging location
in the operator’s task profile.

The operator can override the delivery location by saying “override”. The sys-
tem will ask him or her for a new location. From that time on, the new location
will be used for the next delivery until the operator overrides it again.

SETTING UP YOUR VOICE PROFILE (CUSTOMER) IN VOPC


In this program, you define your customer-based voice profiles. A customer-based voice profile is a user-
defined code that identifies a number of Vocollect Voice options or properties. When you attach this code to a
customer in CUST, the properties that you define in VOPC will be assigned to that customer.
In VOPC, you define the following properties:
 whether or not you want AccellosOne 3PL to state a given inventory level before each pick
 whether or not you want the operator to read back the inventory level as confirmation
 whether or not cycle counting is activated and the rules to follow when the inventory count by the opera-
tor does not match the on hand quantity

Capture data 1 information


If you select this option, the data 1 value is spoken and the operator must read
it back. The value read back must match the product being picked or must be
a valid substitution product.

Do not speak the data 1 field but allow operator to enter confirmation
value
If you select this option, the data 1 value is not spoken but the operator must
confirm it. The value confirmed must match the product being picked or must
be a valid substitution product.

Data 1 Minimum Capture In this property, you specify the number of characters in the inventory level
Length that the operator must read out. For example, if you set this property to two,
the operator must read out the last two characters in the inventory level.

This value is a minimum only; if the inventory level has five characters and this
value is set to two, the operator can read out the last two characters, the three
last characters, the four last characters or all five characters. However, he or
she cannot read out the last character only as this value is less than the mini-
mum.

If you leave this field blank, the operator must read out all characters in the

VOICE-ACTIVATED PICKING AND ORDER ASSIGNMENT SYSTEM
Setting Up Voice-Activated Picking

The following fields in REGI apply exclusively to voice-activated picking:

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Voice Profile Code Mandatory


(VOPR)

The task profile’s voice profile.

Default Customer Voice The default customer voice profile for the task profile. This profile is used if the
Profile Code (VOPC) customer has not been assigned a voice profile in CUST.

Length of UI Check Digit Optional

The length of the UI check digit. For example, if you enter 3 in this field, the
operator must read out the last three digits belonging to the UI of the product
to picked in the location that the product is to be picked from.

For example, suppose the order line is picking item ABC001, pallet ID PA987
from location LA001. The voice terminal will read out the location code to the
operator. The operator will go to the location LA001, find pallet ID PA987 and
read out “987” to confirm that he or she has arrived at the location.

Spoken Length The length of the spoken portion of the OPID. This value is added to the OPID
prefix to form the full OPID for the order line being picked. AccellosOne 3PL
will validate this number to ensure that it is unique and has not been used
before.

Spoken Value Numeric If this field is checked, the value spoken by the operator must be numeric. If
this field is NOT checked, the value spoken by the operator can be alphanu-
meric.

SETTING UP YOUR CHECK DIGIT PARAMETERS IN WARE (OPTIONAL)


You can define up to three manual check digits for each location in AccellosOne 3PL. Check digits are
alternate location codes that Vocollect Voice uses whenever the actual location code is too long to be read
out by the operator for each pick.
You define the number of check digits as well as the days of the week that each check digit will be used in
WARE (Warehouse and Location Format). Then you enter your manual check digits for each location in the
Voice Check Digit 1/2/3 fields in LOCA (Locations).

SETTING UP YOUR REASON CODES IN REAS


In this program, you set up your reason codes for voice-activated picking. Pickers use these codes to record
a reason when the pick quantity for a given order line does not match the order quantity.

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Reason The following reason codes are supported:

1 (Split-picking a Line)
This option is used for short picks; that is, the picker wishes to pick a partial
quantity from the location and return for the remaining quantity at a later time.
For example, if the pick quantity is five cases and the picker picks two cases,
AccellosOne 3PL will split the line into two lines. Line 1 (two cases) will be
marked as picked, while line 2 (three cases) will be marked as unpicked.

2 (Not Enough Product SUSP Hold)


3 (Location is Empty SUSP Hold)
With this option, the allocated product is put on a SUSP hold. The original
order will be zeroed out and a new P-type line will be created and allocated. If
allocation is successful, the new order line can be picked at a later time.

4 (Not enough Product LOST Hold)


5 (Location is Empty LOST Hold)
With this option, the allocated product is put on the hold code that you enter in
the Hold Code field of REAS (and not on SUSP hold). The original order line
will be zeroed out and a new P-type line will be created but NOT allocated. To
allocate the new order line, you must either do so manually in ASOR (Assign
Locations to Orders) or print a document.

You must set up at least one reason code in order to voice pick in Vocollect
Voice.

Assigning RF Operators to Orders in RFOT

If you use Vocollect Voice to pick your orders, you can temporarily override the orders in an operator’s
standard task profile(s) in order to give priority to orders that are particularly urgent. You define overrides by
selecting individual orders and order lines in RFOT and assigning them to the appropriate voice operator.
If you do not use Vocollect Voice and pick your orders in RFPIC, assigning operators to orders in RFOT will
reserve those orders/order lines for the designated operator in RFPIC. When the designated operator enters
RFPIC, only assigned orders for that operator will display in the pick list.
RFOT also allows you to define the picking sequence of orders assigned to a particular RF operator. If you do
not define a picking sequence, orders will be sequenced by order priority followed by order number.

Item Cartonization Profile Code (ICNP)

In this program, you set up your item cartonization profile codes. Each profile code defines the factor to be
applied to a given set of items. For example, for your standard weight items, you set the factor to 1 for your
STD code in ICNP and attach STD to all standard weight items in ITEM. As for your non-standard weight
items, for each weight or cube category such as 1.15, 1.25, 1.35 times the standard weight or cube, you
attach the appropriate factor to a profile code.
For example, a fragile item like a teapot requiring a lot of extra packing materials might have a cube factor
of.85 meaning that 15% of each carton would be reserved for packing materials. On the other hand, a
“squishy” item like a stuffed animal might have a cube factor 1.25 meaning that a carton designed to hold four
stuffed animals could in fact hold five.

Item Cartonization Profile Codes are only required for system-driven cartonization in RFPK.

EQUIPMENT TRACKING
Overview

Overview

The equipment tracking system allows you to track the equipment used by each RF operator, restrict certain
activity types such as picking, packing, etc. to certain types of equipment and restrict certain RF operators to
certain activity types and equipment types.
When equipment tracking is enabled, the following screen will appear each time an RF operator logs on:

Prompt for MHE code

The RF operator must enter a valid material handling equipment code in order to proceed. If the RF operator
enters a material handling equipment type code already in use, one of the following message will appear:

Prompt to remove lock or change MHE Prompt to take over the MHE or reenter MHE
code

The REMOVE THE LOCK message means that there are no active sessions attached to the MHE code and
thus the MHE code is empty. It is safe to remove the lock.
The TAKE OVER THE MHE message means that the Oracle session is still active even though the Unix
session has been dropped (for example, the RF operator switches off the device or removes the batteries). If

TASK INTERLEAVING
Overview

Overview

Task interleaving is a fully automated solution to task assignment. Instead of RF operators entering individual
RF programs to perform put-way, picking, directed moves and replenishments at their own pace and in a
sequence that does not take into account the tasks of other RF operators, AccellosOne 3PL consolidates all
tasks in a single centralized “bucket”.
When an RF operator logs into RF, he or she is assigned the next available task in the bucket be it put-away,
picking, a directed move or a replenishment. The next available task is based on a number of factors
including:
 the RF operator’s equipment
 the RF operator’s proximity to the task’s location
 the RF operator’s task profile
 the location’s height restrictions
 the priority assigned to the task’s activity type
 the task’s pick method (full pallet pick vs. case pick)
 the level of congestion in a particular aisle
If an RF operator chooses to skip a task, AccellosOne 3PL will record the skipped task as well as the operator
who skipped it.
This purpose of task interleaving is to optimize the distribution of warehouse tasks such that travel times in
the warehouse are reduced to a minimum, urgent tasks are performed first and congestion in warehouse
aisles is avoided whenever possible.
The RF operator performs task interleaving in RFITLV (RF Interleaving). RFITLV supports all the standard
functions performed in RFCH, RFPU, RFPIC/RFPV, RFRP and RFCE. RFITLV does NOT support manual
relocations in RFRL, merging OPID’s in RFMG, merging inventory in RFMI, moving product in RFST or
loading product in OLOP.

Company Parameters (COMP)

In this program, you activate task interleaving by setting the Enable Task Interleaving flag to the appropriate
value: Create All Tasks or Create Tasks According to Zone Setting.
If you select “Create All Tasks”, task interleaving will be activated for all warehouse zones whose zone type is
set to I for Interleaving in WHZO. If you select “Create Tasks According to Zone Setting”, task interleaving will
be activated only for warehouse zones whose zone type has been set to I for Interleaving and whose Task
Required flag has been set to Yes.

Warehouse Zones (WHZO)

Only locations attached to a warehouse zone whose zone type code has been set to I for Interleaving can be
used for interleaving. See “Warehouse Zones (WHZO)” on page 84 for further information on WHZO.
If you selected the Create Tasks According to Zone Setting option in COMP, you must set the Task Required
flag to Yes for each warehouse zone in WHZO that you wish to activate.

FIELD DESCRIPTIONS

Max. Number of Opera- In this field, you define “congestion” in a warehouse aisle for interleaving pur-
tors poses; that is, if the number of operators in a task profile exceeds this number,
the extra operators will not be assigned any tasks until one or more existing
operators completes his or her task(s).

RF Interleaving in RFITLV

You perform task interleaving in RFITLV (RF Interleaving). Depending on the next available task, RFITLV calls
one of the following programs: RFCH, RFPU, RFPIC/RFPV, RFRP and RFCE. Refer to the documentation on
these programs for further information.
