WISEPIM Team Explores Latest Innovations at Picqer's Meet and Grill

The WISEPIM® team recently attended Picqer's Meet and Grill event to learn about the latest developments in warehousing software. It was an excellent opportunity to connect with the tech team and represent our customers' interests. Here's a comprehensive update on Picqer's latest warehousing innovations:

Key Feature: Bulk Processing for Identical Orders

Streamlining High-Volume Order Fulfillment

In situations where you receive a large number of orders for the same product (e.g., pre-orders, backorders, or successful promotions), Picqer has introduced an efficient bulk processing feature:

• Singles Batch Processing: Bundle identical orders into a singles batch for streamlined picking and packing.
• One-Click Processing: With a single click, process all pick lists from a singles batch containing the same product and quantity.
• Time-Saving Benefits: Reduce mouse clicks and processing time significantly.
• Simplified Packing: Easily pack the correct number of products per package and attach shipping labels quickly.

Note: This feature is currently available in the new batch pages. Enable it via Experimental features.
