    Replenish item

    Your task/initial situation

    Your warehouse is divided into a replenishment area and a picking area. In the replenishment configuration, you have specified the minimum quantity in the picking area for certain items. In JTL-WMS Mobile in the Internal > Replenishment area, you can view the items, whose quantity has fallen below the minimum quantity in the picking area. You now want to transfer these items to the picking area.

    Step 1: Collecting items in the replenishment area

    1. Start JTL-WMS Mobile App.
    2. Open the hamburger menu and click Replenishment.
    1. Here you can choose whether you only want to consider the replenishment according to the configuration, the required replenishment based on sales orders or both. In this example, we select Replenishment according to configuration + shortage from sales orders.
    1. The Item dialogue box opens and you will see one of the items that is to be transferred.
    2. Go to the storage location of the item you want to transfer.
    3. Enter the number of items you want to transfer and tap OK. After tapping OK, you will receive a message in the upper part of the window that the item has been successfully posted to the stock transfer trolley. The next item is displayed directly in the view.
    1. Place the items on your stock transfer trolley.
    2. Go to the storage location of the next item you want to transfer and scan it as well.
    3. Repeat the process until you have collected all items that you want to transfer to the picking area.
    Transferring additional items: During the transfer of the replenishment items, you notice that you would like to transfer additional items that are not displayed as replenishment items. Click Free to enter the free stock transfer mode and enter more items for stock transfer. Scan the storage location of an item you want to transfer, record the item in the desired quantity and put it on the stock transfer trolley. Then click Replenishment to proceed with the stock transfer of the replenishment items.

    You do not have to transfer all items that are displayed in the Replenishment area at once. You decide which items you want to transfer and can transfer the remaining items at a later point in time.
