Information Systems:Picker Cannot Get Pick List (Batch

In an effort to prevent two pickers from getting the same pick list, I changed RFHR512 to reserve a pick list by putting 1 into the batch number (this program uses a zero batch number to identify picks lists that have not been started). Very rarely, for some reason the program does not select the list reserved in this way; so the ‘1’ has to be manually removed from the batch number. Use DFU on file PLDETL1 in library UP1480BFVAto do this. Although this seems to be happening more often than two pickers getting the same pick list, it is much, much easier to fix.

Warehouse supervisors can now fix this themselves. When it happens, they can go into 'Pick List Status' and look at the details of the pick list with the problem. There will be a new function key available only when the batch number is equal to i. F8 will clear the batch number - but only when it is 1.
