Creating Barcoding Work Orders
Barcoding Work Orders are a specific type of Inventory Prep used to print and affix scannable Barcodes to products at Cahoot such as when products are missing barcodes, have defective barcodes, or when barcodes must change.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Go to Work Orders > All Work Orders > Assigned to Partner tab.
2. Click the Add New dropdown and select Inventory Prep.
3. Create a unique Job Name, specify Type as Inventory Prep - Barcoding, and select the Job Location. The Job Location is the fulfillment center that will be performing the work.
4. Add SKUs to your Work Order by entering the SKU or Barcode (not both) in the Items section and click Add Item, or simply leave both these fields blank and click Add Item to open the Search and Add Items window to add SKUs in bulk.
5. If you opened the Search and Add Items window in Step 4, use the top filters to find specific items in your Product Catalog, or simply browse the SKUs and use the checkboxes on the left to multi-select SKUs. Click Select and Add to add the SKUs to your Work Order in bulk. Close the window when done.
6. Enter the unit Qty next to each SKU to specify how many to barcode. You cannot enter a number of units that is greater than the Qty Available, which takes into account units that are already allocated to live orders or other Work Orders.
7. Enter any Special Instructions or other requirements that apply.
8. Scroll to the top of the page and click Submit Work Order if you're ready for it to be reviewed and Approved, or click Save as Draft in the Other Actions dropdown if you want to come back and submit it later.
Lastly, use the Search Filters at the top of the Work Order page to find specific Work Orders . You will need to adjust the Date Filter if the Work Order you're looking for was created more than 3 months ago.
