Business Benefits

A Storage Zone Preference Profile is a list of Zones that is in preferential order or sequence in which they will be assigned or used by the Verified Passive Putaway or Active Putaway functionality.

Each Client/Product that requires the "Verified Passive Putaway" or "Active Putaway" functionality will be assigned a Zone Preference Profile and the system will attempt to select a location using the most preferred zone available.

Note: For related documentation and workflows, see SL - Stock Locator.

Usage

Use this program to define work zone preference profiles.

Storage Zone Preferences need to be defined if Verified Passive Putaway (VPP) or Active Putaway (AP) functionality will be used.

Preconditions

If Verified Passive Putaway or Active Putaway is required then determine which zones will be used per Client/Product and arrange them in preferential sequence.

The following programs are run before Storage Zone Profiles are defined:

WP.11 [Warehouses]
SL.87 [Zones]

Subsequent Actions

Storage Zone Profiles are attached to a Client/Product in program SL.88 [Product Profiles - Assignment].
