Using Perfect Pick
Inventory Control System software
It is not the scope of this document to describe the functionality and operation
of the third-party Inventory Control System (ICS) software. However, it is
important to understand the basics, since the ICS provides the main interface
with the Perfect Pick system.
The inventory control software can operate in several modes. In normal
operations, the user will primarily use Continuous mode. This mode presents a
number of order-request containers to the picker along a conveyor, with each
container being replaced as soon as it is completed.
Another mode that may be used (depending on your setup) is Put-away mode,
which is used for restocking inventory. Put-away is initiated when an operator
selects
put-away
from the ICS user interface. The procedure is similar to
Continuous mode. A container with inventory items is presented to the
operator, who then puts the specified amount of items into the iBOT-delivered
tote.
