This chapter contains the following topic:
Use this selection to print picking tickets. A picking ticket is a list of items from an order or invoice, printed in order by item location code (bin or shelf location in the warehouse or stockroom). The ticket is used for gathering (picking) the items to be shipped.
The picking ticket data may also be exported to a file.
For the CSV export double quotes (") are used as a field delimiter. Do not use a double quote in any of the data being exported. It will cause the data to be exported to an incorrect field.
PBS Version 12.06 Layout Changes and Picking Ticket Exports
Starting with PBS version 12.06 the customer and ship-to name, address 1, address 2, city, state, zip and apply-to invoice fields were expanded when using either the CSV or TXT export.
