Enter Warehouse Task Setup

Explanation

In order to make the warehouse management work, it is necessary to specify a number of default values for the different task types. This is done in Warehouse Task Basic Data/Warehouse Task Type Setup. These values are specific for the site and task type.

The status of the task type setup decides whether the warehouse tasks should be created. If the status is Active, the tasks are created, while if the status is Inactive, the tasks are not created. The task type setup is also used in the planning and assignment of the warehouse tasks.

The warehouse task type setup can be modified at any time and will then affect the warehouse management immediately.
