Scan Packages to add Order Lines and Allocate Packages to Outbound Orders
We always strive to improve the efficiency of getting orders out the door. With a barcode scanner tethered to your computer via USB, you can scan packages to add order lines and allocate them.
Prerequisites
To enable this feature, you must toggle ON the 'Enable Scan and Allocate to Outbound Order' from the Outbound section under Admin>Configuration.
Scanning Process
- Go to Outbound and locate your Order.
- Click on the Order ID.
- Click Edit Order.
- Click on the scanner icon
on the Edit Order screen.
- The "Scan Packages to Allocate" window pops up:
- From here, start scanning packages to add and allocate order lines.
- When you are done scanning, click the Allocate button!
If you scan a package with an existing order line, the system will allocate the package to that line based on the item/variation/strain.
If you scan a package and there is NOT an order line already for that item, a new order line will be created.
Must Know
- If the order is external (like Leaflink), Flourish will never adjust the order quantity and will not allow you to scan packages of an item that is not already on the order.
- Suppose the order is internal (created in Flourish). In that case, Flourish will not update the order quantity unless the allocated quantity ends up becoming greater than the order quantity, in which case it will be increased to match.
- If the order is internal (created in Flourish), Flourish will create a new order line if the package being scanned to an order is of an item not already on that order.
