Overview of Wave Planning

Warehouse managers use wave planning to group orders for fulfillment. The wave planning process involves creating waves based on criteria, planning waves by checking availability and labor needs, and then releasing waves to initiate picking. Waves can be monitored and exceptions handled during the planning, picking, and fulfillment process. Key aspects of wave planning include flexibility, real-time monitoring, and exception reporting to help manage fulfillment.

Wave Planning

Overview of Wave Planning


Warehouse managers use warehouse planning to group and plan the work in a warehouse.
Warehouse planning tasks include:

 Selecting and grouping orders for fulfillment.


 Checking material availability for fulfillment.
 Performing labor planning to fulfill orders.
 Monitoring the progress of the orders during order fulfillment.

Warehouse planning includes wave planning which enables you to group orders and lines for better
visibility and control during order fulfillment. Wave planning provides real-time monitoring and
exception reporting and flexibility during the order fulfillment process. Using wave planning, you can:

 Create, plan, and release a wave in one step or multiple steps.


 Schedule the entire wave planning process to be run at certain intervals based on specified criteria.
 Monitor and correct exceptions that may occur (exception handling).

The wave planning process consists of the following steps:

1. Creating a Wave

When you create a wave, you select the criteria that determines the orders to include in the wave. For
example, you can create a wave that enables you to pick all orders with a dock appointment within the
next x number of hours, all UPS orders, or all high priority orders.

2. Planning a Wave

Planning the wave involves determining the item availability and labor requirements for the wave.
You can select the default actions to occur when unexpected events happen, for example, when stock
is not available to fulfill orders. You can also add and remove lines from a wave during the planning
phase if the fill rate or labor requirements do not match your expectation or for any other reason.
Optionally, you can re-plan it later. A warehouse manager can plan a wave multiple times. Multiple
people can plan waves, and orders can be included in multiple waves during the planning process.

3. Releasing a Wave

When you release the wave, the pick release process is initiated and material is allocated to orders.

4. Monitoring a Wave

You view a wave (and related wave activity) before and after it is released:

o Use the Wave Workbench window to view order and order line level details, track progress of
orders in the warehouse, manage tasks, review labor planning criteria, and manage exceptions.
o Use the Wave Dashboard window to search for waves by wave number or other criteria, view
high-level summary information about waves, monitor all picking activity in a warehouse, view
automatic and recurring requests, and view the wave status for specific dates

UNIX Commands :

Listing files (ls)


'ls -R': shows all the files not only in directories but also subdirectories
ls -al' gives detailed information of the files
rm : Deleting Files

PWD : Present Working Directory


grep command in Unix/Linux
The grep filter searches a file for a particular pattern of characters, and displays all lines
that contain that pattern. The pattern that is searched in the file is referred to as the
regular expression (grep stands for globally search for regular expression and print out).
Syntax:
grep [options] pattern [files]
Options Description
-c : This prints only a count of the lines that match a pattern
-h : Display the matched lines, but do not display the filenames.
-i : Ignores, case for matching
-l : Displays list of a filenames only.
-n : Display the matched lines and their line numbers.
-v : This prints out all the lines that do not matches the pattern
-v : This prints out all the lines that do not matches the pattern
-e exp : Specifies expression with this option. Can use multiple times.
-f file : Takes patterns from file, one per line.
-E : Treats pattern as an extended regular expression (ERE)
-w : Match whole word
-o : Print only the matched parts of a matching line,
with each such part on a separate output line.
$grep -i "UNix" geekfile.txt

Find Command
find command in UNIX is a command line utility for
walking a file hierarchy. It can be used to find files and
directories and perform subsequent operations on
them. It supports searching by file, folder, name,
creation date, modification date, owner and
permissions. By using the ‘-exec’ other UNIX
commands can be executed on files or folders found.
$ find [where to start searching from]
[expression determines what to find] [-options] [what to find]
$ find ./GFG -name sample.txt

It will search for sample.txt in GFG directory.


The basic difference is FIND is for searching files and
directories at system level while GREP is for
searching a pattern inside a file. GREP is case
sensitive.

Kill Command :
kill command in Linux (located in /bin/kill), is a built-in
command which is used to terminate processes
manually
$kill -l
