hi hendrik again and present to you another video of our series understand si PE W on the series of videos where we simplify the understanding of complex features and functionalities in SI p y WM today it's about to start picking a process of functionality which was there and WM already yesterday and ewm and almost and the same functionality that we can use here but we're trying to look at it a little bit more from a functional material flow perspective and then draw the connection to the system as usual the disclaimer which is written on Debian
experts dot online slash disclaimer is also valid for the content of this video and everything that we publish around this video I will hand over to to Inger for the presentation and you can relax lean back and soak up some EWN knowledge now see you after the functional parts have fun as usual we will go into the real world before we look into the system most of you have probably experienced or can still enjoy Sunday afternoon meals with the whole family at your mother's place all your loved ones sitting around a big table having some
good food now imagine the way that the food has to take to get from the kitchen onto your plate banana leaf bowl or whatever you are using usually your mom will not take your sister's plate fill it in the kitchen with all the components of the lunch walk back to the living room bring it to your sister's place at the table and do the same thing for everybody else she will rather grab all the different parts with the components and bring the pots to the table well-educated sons will of course help here but let's assume
the mom has to do everything on her own so all pops around the table and then the second step everybody grabs what he or she likes in order to fill his/her plate you see that the total travel distance for your mom decreases a lot while the effort for grabbing and moving food from the pots to the plate stays the same so in total as long as your mom is not eating alone were better off with the second approach at least in terms of total travel distance we think that was pretty easy to understand so let
us have a quick look on how this process can be set up in the system instead of the family sitting at the table waiting for food we now have a bunch of delivery items sitting in a wave waiting to be released you know this picture from previous blog posts we assume now the difference is that we do not only release the wave but rather release a first and then release a second step within the first step we combine delivery items requesting the same material into warehouse tasks we create these tasks in order to move the
total quantity for this material from the source bin to an intermediate bin this intermediate bin is our table where the whole family is sitting once the stock has arrived on this bin we release the wave a second time in order to create the warehouse tasks for the second step of the picking process within the second step we pick on delivery item level so we separate the total quantity which has been picked based on the requested quantity for each delivery item depending on the consolidation group the stock might go into separate or shared pick issues but
independent of this both variants complete the picking process here and trigger the next step of our outbound storage process to sum it up from the process perspective we optimize the picking by collectively removing products which are requested by multiple different audio items this way we minimize the picking operations and reduce the total travel distance the customizing is pretty straightforward here just a quick look as the purpose of this video is not to guide you through the implementation apart from types and bins for intermediate storage you need to activate two-step picking on warehouse level and assign
a warehouse process type for those Brawl step in addition you need a dedicated storage type search sequence for the withdrawal step this record is looking at the initial source bin an additional record needs the intermediate storage type as a source pin to help creating the final Aware's task for the distribution from the intermediate bin for all products which have 2-step picking activated and master data we will then pick as described above that's it 2-step picking Tsang singer yes to start picking and explain in an easy way I think even if you have not heard of
it before you are able to explain it to somebody else now and before we close this video there are three points that I would like to mention and the first point as usual is your knowledge and we have again put some books as links under this video it's basically those books that we can recommend of it that I at least used to build up my theoretical knowledge in this area and the area of EWN and apart from practic practice and jumping into the projects this is a good knowledge base to build up you see a
reticle skills second point is our service on WM experts dot online you have access to a team of certified consultants and we would be happy to help you in your projects and of course also related to this topic of this video here we are using slack and gyro service tests state of the art tools and which also simplifies the communication here certain last point is our general feel free to hit the subscribe button somewhere here and we will notify you about new videos and also appreciate in case you give us a like if you liked
the video or give us a comment below this video and tell us what you think about it and what you want to see in one of our next videos that's it for now thanks and see you next time
