What is batch picking?

Batch picking: picking multiple orders at once using a single optimized route

Batch picking

What is batch picking?

Batch picking means gathering multiple orders at once that are similar in terms of size, type, or quantity of products. Instead of walking through the warehouse for each order separately, MontaWMS maps out the most efficient route for you. This allows you to quickly and easily gather the right products for multiple orders at the same time.

This saves you a lot of walking in the warehouse—and therefore time and money. Thanks to the smart Warehouse Management System (WMS), you’ll never have to search for items or get lost again—the system automatically guides you to the right locations.

When is batch picking with MontaWMS a good option?

Do you process more than 50 orders per day? If so, MontaWMS’s batch picking can deliver immediate benefits. Instead of walking in and out of your warehouse dozens of times, you can combine all orders into smart picking routes. This allows one person to easily handle the work of three employees—or finish in a few hours instead of a whole day.

Batch picking is easy with a handheld scanner, which lets you load orders in real time and receive immediate updates on inventory status. Don’t have a scanner or other hardware available? No problem! You can also pick orders using a paper bulk pick slip. The WMS arranges the products to be picked in a logical order for you, ensuring you always take the most efficient route through the warehouse. This way, you benefit from fast and error-free order processing, in the way that best suits your organization.

How does MontaWMS’s batch picking work?

Step 1: Automatically Group Orders

MontaWMS’s smart software analyzes incoming orders and groups them based on similarities, such as identical products, similar characteristics, or locations within the warehouse.

Step 2: Choose your pick stream

You can easily choose which picking streams you want to use, such as single-line, multi-line, or bulk orders. You can set the quantities and dimensions to your liking, and MontaWMS will adjust the workflow accordingly.

Step 3: The WMS calculates the route

MontaWMS automatically plans the most efficient picking route. It takes into account dimensions, weights, and the safest walking route.

Step 4: Start picking orders

With a handheld scanner, you select a picking sequence and are immediately guided to the correct locations. The scanner shows you exactly which products to pick, where to find them, and how many units you need. Working without a handheld scanner? Simply print out a bulk picking slip that’s already been organized for you in a logical walking sequence.

Step 5: Sort and Ship

You pick the products in the specified order. The system continuously checks to make sure you’re picking the right items, which virtually eliminates errors. Once you reach the e-check station, you sort the products into the different orders, which you simply scan to retrieve and print the correct shipping label.
