When wave has released to WMS. We can pick the order using the Picking icon in WMS. NetSuite WMS generates fulfillment records from completed pick tasks.

You can change this default status to automatically mark fulfillments as Packed by inactivating the Manually pack orders? system rule.

You have the option to automatically pack orders by inactivating the Manually pack orders? system rule. If you have set the Default Item Fulfillment Stage preference, note how your Manually pack orders? rule setting affects the status of new fulfillments for released orders:
- If you set the preference to Picked and do not activate the system rule, NetSuite WMS automatically sets new item fulfillments to Packed status.
- If you set the preference to Packed or Shipped and activate the system rule, NetSuite WMS automatically sets new item fulfillments to Picked status. With new fulfillments in this status, you can manually pack the released orders.
