Updates to Wave Creation
The Wave Criteria page now contains the New and Edit options for setting up custom wave criteria
templates. If you click either of these buttons, you can access the Wave Search facility and select your
order, item, or shipping filters. For more information, see the help topic Creating Custom Wave Criteria
Templates.
Previously, you automatically release waves for unreleased orders that you process through the app.
Now you can activate the Provide wave status selection for unreleased orders rule to assign them the
Pending Release or Released status. After you release waves through the NetSuite UI, you can continue
picking the orders through the app. For more information, see the help topic System Rules for NetSuite
WMS.
New Pick Task Details and Bulk Assignment
You can set the Show Additional Pick Task Columns preference to display two additional columns on
pick task lines on the Pick Task page only. In these columns, you can enter more details about the item or
order for each pick task line. For more information, see the help topic Setting Warehouse Management
Preferences.
Before you begin order picking, you can assign multiple pick tasks to each warehouse operator. Even if
you assign pick tasks during wave creation, you can reassign them in bulk
Pick Reversal Capabilities
The following capabilities enhance pick reversal on the mobile app:
■ Pick reversal for work orders – You can now reverse pick tasks for components of work orders
that have not been partially or fully built. You can reverse up to ten pick task lines at a time. You can
reverse specific lot numbers and over-picked components.
NetSuite WMS updates the status and bin details of the associated work order. When you reverse
over-picked components, it does not change or increase the original quantity of the work order.
■ Bin selection for reversed items – You can activate the Choose bins for reversed pick task items?
rule to enable bin selection during reversals. You can transfer reversed items to another bin, instead
of the one from which they were picked.
For more information, see the help topic Pick Task Reversal.
Updates to Other Mobile Processes
NetSuite WMS 2023.2 includes updates to the following mobile processes:
■ For the PO Receiving process, you can search for orders to receive using the Manufacturer’s Part
Number (MPN) of an item.
■ For the Inbound Shipment and PO Receiving processes, you can tally scan different item types
continuously on the Enter Quantity page. You can set up this option on the Enable Tally Scan? rule.
■ For accounts that use the Advanced Receiving feature, you can activate the Enable Restock option
for returns? system rule. When you manually create item receipts for returned items on the app,
the Restock option enables you to return items to your inventory. For non-restocked items, NetSuite
automatically updates the write-off account, which you must select in your accounting preferences.
■ For the supported Inventory processes, you can enter an item by scanning its HIBC bar code.
■ For the Bin Transfer process, you can choose the Transfer All option to update lot or serialized items.
