Section: Submenu
These settings are available from product update 408. After updating to 408 or higher, only submenu 'By order' will default be enabled, to maintain the same default functionality as in earlier releases. Submenu 'By reference 2' was added in release 412 - 'reference 2' contains the selection code or the sales- or production order number, when splitting replenishment orders.
You can enable or disable one or more of the replenishment submenus on the scanner. If more than one submenu is enabled, these submenus will first show on the scanner after selecting main menu 'Replenishment'. When only one of these submenus is enabled, this submenu will be immediately started when choosing main menu 'Replenishment'. When all submenus are disabled, you will see error message 'Please select at least one of the options in section 'submenu' in this screen.
Section: General
Browse order lines ASP and CAB. When enabled, a list of order lines (advice lines) to pick will be shown first, after selecting a replenishment order. You have to select a specific line from that list to start picking. This way you can start with another item than otherwise default would be started with. The order line browser only shows once, after selecting the order. After the selected item is picked, the next open line will automatically be presented. From product update 404, the order line browser is also shown when using the STOP button and choosing 'Skip advice line for now'. When disabled, the first advice line (and logically, the first location to visit) will be opened automatically after selecting an order to pick.
Show picked lines ASP and CAB ActiveSync only. When enabled, a list of the picked lines shows after the order is fully picked. This list shows totals per picked advice line (per location per item).
Show stock button ASP only. Determines whether the hand terminal user is allowed to view item stock on the hand terminal. Before release 406 this setting was named 'RF: browse stock'.
Advice mandatory ASP and CAB. When enabled, the advised location, serial/batch or SKU number are mandatory and cannot be changed. When disabled, it is allowed to pick from another location, or pick another serial/batch number or SKU number, after a warning message. Also see document 'Advice line switch'.
Screen layout ASP WMSclient only. Please read this section for more information on 'screen layout'.
Section: Bar code
Dividing character ASP and CAB. Please read this document for more details on 'scanning combination' and 'dividing character'.
Focus to next field ASP only. Please read this document for more information on this setting. This setting is available in this screen from release 409, in earlier releases this was a general scanner setting. Show barcode summary Available from product update 404 (ASP and for WMS client only). When enabled, a summary screen will show (in which you have to press Enter or OK) after a scan, when otherwise you would have moved to the next transaction screen immediately. This way you still have a confirmation of what you scanned, before the next scan screen is shown. Typically, this will be the case when you have disabled the setting 'Focus to next field' and scanning a SKU number, or an EAN128 or HIBC bar code. Please also see this document for more information on this setting.
Section: Item
When the setting 'Serial/batch number'/'Display which value' is configured to 'Advice', then 'Fill item code' has to be enabled. This is because when the S/B number is prefilled, the S/B number is also validated - and 'item code' is part of the unique key of a S/B number and has to be prefilled for that. If you have S/B number configured to be prefilled with 'Advice' but 'Fill item code' disabled, an error message will show while trying to save these settings (from release 414): "The combination of prefilling serial/batch number with advice and not prefilling item code is not supported".
Section: Location

Section: Serial/batch number

If you have S/B number configured to be prefilled with 'Advice' but 'Fill item code' disabled, an error message will show while trying to save these settings (from release 414): "The combination of prefilling serial/batch number with advice and not prefilling item code is not supported".
