Fulfill Kits

As a material handler, the way you interact with a kit is different than those who need to request parts from the kit. As a result, the kitting interface changes dynamically based on the stage of the kit to make it more efficient for you to understand what to do next. You can always flip between the Request Parts and Fulfill Parts tab as needed, however.

Step 1: Access the Assigned Kit 0:00

• If you are a material handler, locate the kit assigned to you.

• Click on the kit to begin the fulfillment process.

Step 2: Generate the Pick List 0:15

• A pick list will be automatically generated for you. This is in the fulfill parts tab.

• This pick list includes:

  • Items manually kitted by the planner or production supervisor.

  • Items selected based on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

  • If it is being split, what is it being split from.

  • The items are sorted alphabetically by location for efficient picking.

  • Kitted item not in the select warehouse location will show at the bottom of the list with a warning.

• If you need to, you can replace parts that have been automatically or manually selected parts by selecting Replace

Step 3: Navigate the Factory 0:44

• Use the pick list to navigate through the factory.

Step 4: Begin Picking Items 0:59

• Start picking the items listed on your pick list by clicking the kit button on each item if that item is not already kitted. The kit button will only appear for auto selected materials and once clicked will simply kit the item on your behalf.

• As you start picking, the kit status will change to 'in progress'.

• You can also replace items on the pick list with another inventory item. For already kitted items, this will remove it and replace it with the new selected inventory. For an auto-selected inventory item, this will kit the selected inventory and decrement the auto-selected inventory for that part in the pick list by the newly kitted inventory

Step 5: Complete the Picking Process 1:21

• Continue picking until all items on the list have been collected.

• Once everything is picked, the option to complete the kit will appear.

Step 6: Finalize the Kit Status 1:32

• If there is a run associated with the kit, it will show as 'delivered'.

• If there is no run, it will show as 'complete'.

• Note the difference in inventory status:

  • Delivered: Inventory remains marked as kitted.

  • Completed: Inventory is marked as available.

Shortage Table

At the bottom of the pick list, you may occasionally see a shortage table, which will show any parts that do not have the requested part quantity fulfilled by kitted and auto-selected parts.

Known Issues

• Scanning is currently not in the new ION but is slated to arrive by the end of October.

• Clicking Kit on Autoselect inventory is kitting them, but it does not visually represent that change.

• Locations are sorting alphabetically however some locations are causing a misorder to due numbers.
