Warehouse pick lot validation

Customer Specification Profile  •  Article  •  4/22/2026  • 

Specification compliance is enforced during warehouse pick operations at four points: pick creation, auto-allocation, manual lot entry, and pick registration.

Pick creation

Pick creation is never blocked. If pre-assigned lots are non-compliant, a warning is displayed and the pick is created for the supervisor to resolve during picking.

Auto-allocation

The auto-allocation engine (FEFO) skips non-compliant lots. If all available lots are non-compliant, the pick line is created with a blank lot number for manual assignment.

Manual lot entry

Compliance ActionUser TypeBehavior
Show ErrorStandard userError shown. Lot cleared. You must choose a compliant lot.
Show ErrorAuthorized userConfirmation dialog. Override reason required. Override logged with the Stage field value updated as Picking.

Previously overridden lots pass silently on re-entry if the profile has not changed.

Pick registration

All lots are re-validated at registration to detect profile or attribute changes since pick creation.
