A warehouse job allocations system will know what picking, packing or building jobs are waiting and will allocate them to the right team members based on pre-set profiles. By using picking profiles in the system, you’re able to make sure all pick jobs are allocated in a way that no-one is ever overloaded with high volume or excessively heavy orders. The jobs screen will also allow you to to see active and problematic jobs that might need more attention.
Keep an eye on job completion rates, error rates and overall stats, whilst allowing your team to easily report problems encountered on a job so that they can be dealt with promptly. Job allocation means that everyone knows what they are supposed to be doing, and gives them the tools and the confidence to do it.
The ‘in progress’ status that appears over different build jobs also make it clear to warehouse teams who’s working on on what, and what else needs to be done.
More importantly, the system will provide accurate stock levels for those working on more complex builds – ultimately making it easier to work from the ground up.
