Move Types

ShipHawk WMS offers several different ways to execute inventory moves throughout the warehouse. These are:

• Manual moves

• Assisted moves

• Report moves

Manual moves are Operator-Initiated and Operator-Controlled moves. Assisted moves are System-Assisted/Directed moves based on replenishment needs and inventory availability at that moment. Report-based moves are offline moves performed manually based on a pre-printed Report.

Manual Moves

If the operator is controlling the decision of what move, the following elements will be entered: from bin, item, quantity, container id, to bin, in sequence to complete the move (see operatios usage below).

Assisted Moves

If the system is controlling the decision of what to move (calculated replenishment, for example), then the operator will be directed to specific bins, pick specific items and quantities, and deposit the inventory into a destination bin.

Report Controlled Moves

Lastly, sometimes operations prefer to create move reports, letting the operators complete all of the moves listed on that report, and then “confirm” these moves to ShipHawk WMS.
