Wave Release

Wave release policies and templates allow warehouse managers to identify the proper orders to release to the warehouse for picking based on any criteria — customer, expected ship date, item/zone, ship method and any or all of the above. Companies can filter the orders they want to include in a wave and set the schedule for release to the warehouse. Releases may be generated and executed using the mobile application.

Defined Pick Strategies

Predefined pick-and-pack strategies enable companies to dictate exactly how and when inventory should be used to fulfill outbound orders, ensuring optimal utilization. Pick strategies enable NetSuite to identify the proper recommended bin location based on concepts such as first-expired-first-out (FEFO), pick to clean, pick to fill or primary bin location.

Multi-Order Picking

Instead of picking orders chronologically, NetSuite looks at all orders that need to be filled for the day and directs staff to pick like items for all orders simultaneously. This decreases the back-and-forth trips required to pick the same items multiple times.

Pack and Ship

NetSuite Ship Central equips warehouse workers with packing and shipping capabilities on a mobile or kiosk device. It eliminates unnecessary steps in the preparation and shipping process for domestic and international orders and helps organizations automatically select the most cost effective shipping method taking into account delivery date or location type, print shipping and return labels, and create necessary documentation for international orders.
