Depositing Cases

About this task

The Sterling WMS Mobile Application lets you view case deposit instructions that the system displays while depositing the cases. Deposit all cases that you picked into the system-suggested location. If the system does not suggest the deposit location, scan the location to deposit the cases.

To deposit the cases:

Procedure

  1. In Case ID, enter or scan the Case LPN, if applicable.
  2. In Location, enter or scan the deposit location.
  3. Choose Go in the GUI mobile terminal to deposit the cases into the location. If using the CUI mobile terminal, press the F3 key. The system displays next deposit task or open task, if available.
  4. Choose Deposit All in the GUI mobile terminal to deposit all cases into the location. If using the CUI mobile terminal, press the F6 key.
  5. Choose Exception in the GUI mobile terminal to record deposit exceptions. If using the CUI mobile terminal, press the F4 key. For more information about recording deposit exceptions, see Putaway: Recording Deposit Exceptions.
  6. Choose Drop Offs in the GUI mobile terminal to view a list of system-suggested drop off locations to deposit the cases. If using the CUI mobile terminal, press the F7 key. For more information about viewing drop off locations, Viewing Drop Off Locations.
    • If you cannot deposit cases into the system-suggested location, record the deposit exceptions. For more information about recording deposit exceptions, see Putaway: Recording Deposit Exceptions.
      Note: The system creates a second step move task only when at least one of the following two conditions are met:
      • When the suggested and the actual deposit locations have different location types.
      • If the location type of the system-suggested deposit location is “STAGING” and the zone of the actual deposit location is different from the zone of the system-suggested deposit location.
