Creating a pick ticket

Introduction

In this article, we will walk you through how to create a pick ticket in Paragon manually, as well as how to create picks from orders and reservations. The pick ticket module is based on Paragon's standard transaction screen.

Select the company name from the drop-down menu.

You can select from the drop down list of companies. If you do not see the company that you are looking for, click on the three dots to the right of the search field to get a full list of available companies to choose from.

Once the company is selected, it will auto-populate all the addresses from the customer file.

Select addresses

If you want to choose another address, click on the arrow to the right of each address type; bill from, ship from, bill to or ship to, to see a drop down of all available addresses to choose from.

If you do not see the address that you are looking for, you can create a new address.

 

Note that the pick ticket will not have a transaction number until the pick ticket is saved. Once a transaction number is assigned, it will replace #####.

Add products to your pick ticket

To add a product or line item to your pick ticket, click add product in the lower left-hand side of the line item area.

Once the items have been added, you can edit any of the information in the line by clicking on that field and typing in the correct information.
 
Under location you can indicate where the item will be picked from (there must be available units of this item in that location).
Under price you'll see the sale price setup on the item, which can be modified if necessary.
Under picked you can enter how many units must be picked.


Each item line must have a location assigned before your pick can be issued.

 
 

 

You can always add more line items by selecting add product again.

Pick date on product lines

It is possible that you will pick your product lines on different days within one pick ticket. In order to see this information for each line, right-click on the line, and choose view line attributes.

The pick date for that line will show here.

If necessary, add any relevant notes. These notes won't affect anything in the system. They can be used for reminders or internal communication.
