Inspection can be done on incoming goods. The host ERP system can make such orders available to the host connector which will create the inspect orders. An operator can select such an order and places the inspected articles on a carrier after selection the inspect icon from the menu.
Inspect order selection
A selection dialog is given with available inspect orders:
Value | Description |
|---|---|
#000000000003 | Internal stockcontrol order number |
Available | Shows that the order is ready to be executed |
12345 | Erp system reference order number |
Inspect | Order type, in this case inspect |
(0/2+ carriers) |
|
2 line(s) | Number or orderlines |
1000 items | Total number of items to be inspected |
65 done | Number of articles already processed |
Inspection dialog
The selected inspect order is shown in the title of the dialog. And the dialog waits on a scan of the article barcode you want to inspect.
The main title bar also has the following buttons:
| With this option or the default android return button you can stop processing the order and return to previous screen.The order can be resumed later or by another operator. |
| Resets the dialog to initial state in case you need to correct current values. |
| Enter special properties for an article. These are customer specific and need to be configured. |
After scanning an article that is found in the order you can use the drop down list (Art #) to specify the article type if multiple possibilities are available using drop down list:
Wrong or unknown barcode scan for the inspect order will be indicated by error sound and short message.
Now an carrier can be scanned to get to next step in the dialog. An error will be given if the scanned barcode does not correspond to the configured barcode for carriers.
If it’s the first time a carrier is scanned a confirmation is requested to make sure you want to add a new carrier:
If the carrier is configured with multiple compartments the compartment the operator wants to use is requested. For carriers without compartments or 1 compartment this step is skipped.
For this example we scan compartment 'B' and now we have to give the amount of articles we want to put into this compartment:
After entering the amount 4 we can then book the article onto the carrier, a confirmation is requested if the amount is allowed:
The action is confirmed with an ok sound and the dialog will reset to the initial state in order to continue the inspect.
Order finish
An extra button can be available (book & close) depending on the configured system with which the operator can indicate that the inspection order has completed. Without this button the order is completed if all articles are confirmed and an operator needs to escalate an incomplete order to his superior who can use the client to fix the problem.
