Manage My Warehouse Task

Explanation

This activity is used to view pending tasks and perform tasks (Tasks in status: Released, Parked and Started) for each worker. You can view the task, either by the task type or the location group. Usually this activity is performed by the workers in the warehouse terminal or truck.     

Prerequisites

• A worker should exist.
• One or more warehouse task(s) should be created.
• Stock should not be frozen for counting.

System Effects

As a result of this activity:

• The system displays the required data as per selected filter criteria.
• The system creates the next available task and places it at the top of the task list. Also note that if there are any tasks in the Started status, they will be placed on the top of the tasks list and the other available tasks will follow.
• If the task queue is empty, the system can create a new task. Hence it will allow the user to assign and begin unassigned tasks. 
• The system removes the completed tasks from the task list.
