Define Pick Location Assignment, for Quality Control

About this task

Pick Location Assignment (PLA) assigns the warehouse location(s) to the demand placed. PLA defines the list of zones to use for picking by specifying for a combination of item level attributes, such as classifications and unit of measure. Multiple PLA rules may be specified to ensure that the zone level constraints are unique to the item classification and unit of measure combination. For example, for SKUs stocked in pallets, cases and loose units, it is advisable to have 3 distinct rules to cover zones that are applicable for each unit of measure. The locations to be used in the zone can be filtered further by considering the least travel or pick-to-clean constraints.

After creating a Retrieval Strategy, you can define the Pick Location Assignment for the Retrieval Strategy.
