General Configuration

Here are the general configuration options for iDynamics Advanced Warehouse:

Configuration

Reclassification Journal Serial Number: For general operations performed through the journal.

Lot Quantity: Dual-unit picking system for variable lot quantities (for example, pieces in textiles that have a variable lot size, approximately 30m). This value (which can be specified in the product) will be considered to calculate the number of lots needed for a picking. It allows picking by reading lots while the system calculates the actual quantity read.

Active Invoice Signing: Enables the use of digital signature for sales invoices, for instance, allowing the transporter to sign the pickup.

iDynamics Extensions

Active Employee Log: Enables tracing by employee for all warehouse operations and employee logins.

Pallet

Customer Pallet: A simple functionality separate from the iDynamics Advanced Warehouse pallet logic, allowing assignment of a pallet number to a customer's packing.

Allow Relocation of Location Content: Important field, if not marked, requires des-palletizing first and then moving a part of the pallet. If checked (recommended), both des-palletizing and location change can be done in the same operation.

Pallet Measurement Unit: Default measurement unit for the pallet, used by the application, for instance, to propose the inventory quantity of a pallet.

Box Measurement Unit: Default measurement unit for the shipping box.

Shipments

Picking Load Process: Activates the shipment loading functionality where the stock is virtually distributed among the orders to be served based on the service percentage.

Automatic Picking Search: The chaotic picking method, where all stock is collected using a load list, taken to a preparation area, and then scanned. Upon scanning, it looks for the most prioritized order requesting that product and assigns it. As the pickings are completed, they are registered, and the packing list can be automatically printed.

Automatic Packing Billing: With this option checked, registering the picking from the handheld device (PDA) will automatically generate the packing invoice, transitioning it to a 'registered packing' and creating the pre-invoice. By default, it includes a process type report that performs this billing, and the client can customize it by subscribing to an event.

Ship Non-inventoried Products: Includes, for example, a shipping product and allows it to be included in the first shipment, with the rest being shipped as paid freight.

Receipts

Automatic Quantity in Receipts: If not reading from the PDA, this setting allows the application to fill in the quantity to handle for the storage picking when created.

Reception Picking, Breakdown by Pallets: Determines whether the system should propose the received quantity based on pallet multiples automatically. For instance, if 950u are received and pallets are 100u each, the system will create 9 pallets of 100u each and another with the remaining quantity.

Images

Images: These will appear before each label to indicate whether it's related to a Lot, Pallet, Series, etc.

Reports

Print Picking Before Registering from PDA: When registering from the PDA, this option will open a PDF for direct printing from the PDA to attach it to the documentation.

Print Expedition Label after Creating a Box: When using shipping boxes to prepare shipments, this setting allows automatic printing of the box label each time a new box is requested from the PDA.

Report Numbers: iDynamics Advanced Warehouse provides base reports for common requirements. If the client creates their own reports, they will replace the report number with their custom ones:

  • Picking Report.
  • Unregistered Packing Report.
  • Registered Packing Report.
  • Barcode Label Report for Unregistered Packing.
  • Barcode Label Report for Registered Packing.
  • Barcode Label Report for Purchases before entering.

Reports section provides details about these reports.

Web Service

If using Team Member users who can't register pickings due to license limitations, you'll need to activate registration via Web Service. Web Service Activated: Enables registration via Web Service (only activate if necessary). If activated, two options are available:

  • Azure Authentication: For Saas environments. You will need to provide details such as ClientId, ClientSecret, and TenantId. For detailed configuration steps, refer to Azure Configuration for Saas.
  • User/Password Authentication: Simple authentication for OnPremise environments.
