Express Pack tab in Sales Order Fulfillment

The Express Pack feature allows you to complete the pick and pack steps for an order as a single action instead of separate processes. Using the Sales Order Fulfillment Dashboard for pick, pack, and ship status increases speed and accuracy in order fulfillment.

Access the Dashboard

The Dashboard is the same as the QuickBooks Enterprise 18.0 Orders worksheet. Invoices orders and non-inventory orders do not display on the Dashboard.

1. From the Customers menu, go to Sales Order Fulfillment Worksheet.
2. Select Dashboard.

Create the Express Pack list

1. From the Customers menu, go to Sales Order Fulfillment Worksheet.
2. On the Dashboard, choose the sales orders you want to pick and pack as one process, then select Send for Exp pick-pack in the Action drop-down.
3. On the Packer column, select the packer from your list (if desired).
4. Select Send to device to send the pick-pack list to the warehouse's scanner or phone.

Warehouse activity

3. Press Done to finalize the entry, then tap Finish to send the completed list back to QuickBooks.

Update Sales Order Fulfillment worksheet

1. On the Sales Order Fulfillment Worksheet, switch to the Express pick-pack tab to check the list status.
   Note: An orange flag indicates the order has been packed on the Express pick-pack tab list.
2. Select the radio button next to the flagged order, select Update Sales Order, then OK to change the status to Packed or Partially Packed.
   Note: Sales orders do not automatically update to Packed or Partially Packed status.
3. Switch to the Dashboard tab to see the status of the order.

This activity is also available from the Dashboard page under Batch Actions.

Track the status

Once you have created the pick-pack lists, you can track real-time status from the warehouse on the Express Pick-Pack tab. As soon as there is an update from the warehouse via the mobile scanner, you will see an orange arrow notification indicating a picklist update.

Choose the sales order(s) and select Update sales order. This will update the sales order status to the latest one. If there are any exceptions such as an incorrect number of items packed, the system will prompt you with a message.

Actions available from the table on this page include:

• View packing list
• Print packing slip (only shows if packing list status is updated). The packing slip will show the latest quantity packed.

Manually update pack info

If you are not using a mobile scanner, you’ll need to update the pack information manually.

1. Double-click on the chosen sales order.
2. Change the pack status to Packed.
3. Add notes as desired.
4. Select Add a package.
5. From this screen, you can add a new package or update appear existing package information such as weight and dimensions. The packing list will show up which can be further updated as needed.
6. Select Update Sales order.

You’ll receive a confirmation advising that you can now ship this sales order. Return to the Dashboard to start the Ship process.
