Purpose

The Move Cart allows you to scan or manually enter a warehouse location barcode and select specific stock within that location to be moved (as opposed to moving all stock within the location). You can also scan or manually enter a Purchase Order Product (POP) barcode and move only a select quantity of that product (rather than the entire POP record). 

The Move Cart is designed in a way that allows you to collect stock as you go, moving from location to location in the warehouse. You can then either scan the entire cart or part of it into a single destination location, or multiple destination locations.

Use cases

  • Replenishing pick face locations.
  • Consolidating warehouse locations to make room for new stock.
  • Putting away unassigned stock. 

Benefits

  • Ability to move multiple products from multiple different locations in one movement.
  • Ability to split product quantities and move only partial quantities.
  • Ability to print product labels after moving the stock. 

Prerequisites

It is recommended that you utilise a barcode scanner to maximise the benefits and functionality of the Move Cart. 

How to use the Move Cart

There are two ways you can utilise the Move Cart, either by using a barcode scanner or manually using the device's keyboard. 

If you are using a Bluetooth Barcode Scanner and need to use the keyboard on the application, click the button on the scanner twice to enable the keyboard. 

The below outlines the four stages that need to be followed when using the Move Cart: 

1. Enable the Move Cart 

  • Once on the Scan Move screen, enable the Move Cart by sliding the Use Move Cart toggle.

You can enable the Move Cart at any point in time when using Scan Move. This means you can scan a location or Purchase Order Product barcode and then decide to enable the Move Cart. 

2. Add stock to the Move Cart 

  • Scan or manually enter the Product Code, Purchase Order Product (POP), Location Barcode or Unit of Measure (UOM) Barcode into the Scan POP/Location Barcode field at the top of the application.
  • You will now be able to view all stock associated with that barcode and individually select the POPID's you wish to either move or add to the Move Cart. 
  • To select stock either scan the POPID or select the tick circle next to the POPID.
Note, that even when the Move Cart is enabled you are still able to move stock without using the Move Cart. To do so, simply select the stock you wish to move and then scan the new location barcode in the To Location field at the bottom of the application.  

Scanning a location barcode: 

Scanning a POPID barcode

  • To adjust the quantity of stock to be moved, select the box containing the POP's quantity. 
Check out the Move Cart - Split Quantity video for more information on how to use the Move Cart to split a POP quantity. 

  • Enter the quantity of stock you wish to move and then select Add to Move Cart. Or, you can scan the Unit of Measure barcode to select the quantity you wish to add to the Move Cart. 

Scanning the Unit of Measure barcode to select the quantity: 

  • If you scan the location again or unselect the POPID you will see the quantity that has been added to the Move Cart. 

  • For the selected stock that you have not changed the quantity of, click the Add to Move Cart icon to add stock to the Move Cart. 

  • The stock will now be in the Move Cart and can be viewed by selecting the Move Cart icon in the top right.

Until the stock is moved to a location, it will remain in the Move Cart for 30 days. 

To continue adding stock to the Move Cart:

  • Scan/enter a new location or Purchase Order Product barcode in the Scan Location or Purchase Order Product field at the top of the application.
  • Repeat the above process and select the stock you wish to add to the Move Cart. 
Check out the Move Cart - Multiple Items video for more information on how to use the Move Cart to collect stock from different locations and move them to either one or multiple locations. 

3. Complete the move

  • Select the Move Cart icon. 
  • From here, you can view all stock currently in the Move Cart and select the stock you wish to move. 
  • You can either select all stock in the cart at once (by clicking the Select All button) or individually select the stock (by selecting the circle next to the POPID).

To remove stock from the Move Cart, select the stock you wish to remove and then click the Remove button at the top of the application.
  • Once the stock is selected, scan/enter the new location barcode in the Scan New Location Barcode field and select Move or scan the new location barcode a second time to complete the move. 

  • You will receive a success message once the stock has been moved. 

4.Print POP labels (optional) 

Printing a POP label when completing the move 

  • After successfully moving Purchase Order Products, you will have the option to print the POPID labels.
  • If you are moving a part quantity of a POPID the Requires New Label icon will be displayed next to the POP and by default, it will be selected. To unselect, simply click the orange tick circle. 
  • If you are moving a full quantity POPID and would like to print a new label, select the orange circle next to the relevant POPID. 
  • To edit the number of labels printed, select the blue box next to the relevant POP and type in the number of labels you wish to print. 
  • Select Print. 
Check out the Move Cart - Split Quantity video for more information on how to print a new label using the Move Cart. 

For more information regarding printing labels with CartonCloud see Label Printing. 

Re-printing POP Labels

If you forget to print the POP label when completing the move or the label is damaged you are able to re-print the label. 

This functionality is useful if you are moving warehouses and need to re-print labels or you come across a label that is damaged. 

To re-print the POP label:

  • Scan the location in which the Purchase Order Product that you want to re-print the label for is located in.
  • Select the relevant Purchase Order Product. 
  • Select the Print Lable button at the top of the screen.

Move Cart History 


Please note, Move Cart history is specific to the device being used. Even if the moves are completed within the same warehouse they will only show on the devices that the move was performed on. 

Scan Move history will show the past 30 days of movements (specific to that device). 

To access the Move Cart history:

  • Select the Move Cart icon in the top right corner. 

  • Select the clock icon in the left-hand corner. 

  • From this screen, you will be able to view all successful and unsuccessful Scan Move attempts.

When an item fails to move an orange clock icon will appear against the POP in the Move Cart. By clicking on the icon you will receive a message as to why the move failed.
