Picking tasks refers to any task that involves the selection, search, and pick of products from storage positions inside the warehouse. Picking tasks are created after processing a sales order in the PULPO WMS Web App. This article will explain how to use the filter for creating pickings for single orders or a group of orders (batch picking) with specific characteristics.
After the user has filtered the outgoing orders with the desired filter (see Article Filter Outgoing Orders with specific characteristics to have more information), the user can create pickings by clicking on the button CREATE PICKING.
