We have introduced the ability to delete cycle count records in the Generate Cycle Count module. The "Cycle Count Queue" view within the module has been enhanced with the following functionalities to improve usability and streamline queue management:
Delete on Right-Click: Users can now quickly delete individual entries in the Cycle Count Queue by simply right-clicking on the desired entry and selecting the Delete option.
Batch Delete Functionality: The option to batch delete cycle count entries has also been introduced to allow users to delete multiple entries in the Cycle Count Queue simultaneously. This enhancement significantly reduces the time and effort required for queue management.
The Cycle Count Centre has been updated to include a new "Assigned User" column in both the Cycle Count Header and Cycle Count Detail views. This new column provides visibility into who is responsible for each cycle count, making it easier for teams to track assignments and ensure proper accountability.
The cycle count batch is assigned/unassigned from cycle count module in XoroWMS.
We are excited to introduce a new feature in the Packing Module of XoroWMS: Batch Pick and Pack for Individually Packing Items/Orders on OLPN Linked to Multiple Sales Orders. This feature streamlines the packing process when dealing with an Outbound License Plate Number (OLPN) associated with multiple Sales Orders (SO), ensuring better efficiency, accuracy, and flexibility in handling packed goods.
Key Highlights of the Feature:
Batch Pick and Pack Capability:
The system now allows users to individually pack items on a specific OLPN linked to multiple Sales Orders.
This is achieved through the introduction of an Item# scan field, enabling the identification and packing of individual items associated with their respective Sales Orders.
Flexibility to Move Items:
Users can pack items separately and move them to new License Plate Numbers (LPNs), offering a more organized packing workflow.
Order Identification Automation:
Based on the scanned Item#, the system intelligently identifies and associates the correct Sales Order, eliminating manual entry and reducing errors.
To better understand the functionality, let’s explore various scenarios where this feature proves beneficial:
Case 1: Different Sales Orders with Different Items Picked on the Same LPN
Example: SO1 contains Item1, and SO2 contains Item2, both picked on the same OLPN.
Steps:
Scan the OLPN: The system displays the Item# scan field.
Scan Item1: The system automatically associates it with SO1 and displays the order number in the Order Number field.
Scan Item2: The system automatically associates it with SO2 and updates the Order Number field accordingly.
Benefit: Quick and accurate association of items with their respective Sales Orders, avoiding confusion during the packing process.
Case 2: Different Sales Orders with the Same Item Picked on the Same LPN
Example: SO1 and SO2 both contain Item1, picked on the same OLPN.
Steps:
Scan the OLPN: The system detects that the same item exists in multiple orders and prompts a popup to select the relevant Sales Order.
2. Choose the appropriate Sales Order from the popup.
3. Proceed to pack the item on the selected Sales Order.
Benefit: Prevents incorrect assignment of items to the wrong Sales Orders, ensuring accuracy when dealing with identical items across orders.
Case 3: Multiple Sales Orders with Multiple Items Picked on the Same LPN
Example: SO1 contains Item1, Item2, Item3, and SO2 contains Item4, Item5, Item6, all picked on the same OLPN.
Steps:
Scan the OLPN: The system displays the Item# scan field.
Scan Item1: The system associates it with SO1 and displays a popup to notify the user that the order contains multiple items.
Confirm the popup and pack all items associated with SO1 (Item1, Item2, Item3).
Benefit: Simplifies the packing process by allowing the user to handle multiple items within the same Sales Order in one action, reducing the effort and time required.
We are thrilled to announce the latest enhancement in the LPN Label functionality of XoroWMS. This update focuses on improved customization when generating pallet labels, ensuring that your warehouse operations align seamlessly with your unique workflows.
To offer greater flexibility and control in pallet labeling, we have introduced a new App Config Setting called "Set pallet prefix". This enhancement enables users to define a custom prefix for pallets generated through the Print Pallet functionality in XoroWMS.
Key Highlights:
Custom Prefix for Pallet Labels:
The Set pallet prefix setting allows you to configure a unique prefix for all pallets generated via the Print Pallet feature.
By default, the prefix is set to "LPN".
User-Defined Flexibility:
Organizations can now align their pallet naming conventions with internal standards or customer requirements.
For example, the prefix could be customized to "PLT", "PAL", or any other meaningful identifier.
Seamless Integration:
The defined prefix will automatically reflect in all pallets printed using the Print Pallet functionality, ensuring consistent and professional labeling across your operations.
Navigate to the App Config Settings in XoroWMS.
Locate the new setting: "Set pallet prefix".
Enter your desired prefix (e.g., "VPN", "PLT", "WH", etc.).
Save the changes. All pallets printed thereafter will include the specified prefix.
We are pleased to announce an enhancement to the Packing Page in XoroWMS with the addition of three new columns: Customer Name, Carton Break Rule, and Priority. These updates are designed to provide greater visibility and control during the packing process, ensuring more efficient and accurate order fulfillment.
1. Customer Name Column
Displays the name of the customer associated with each order.
Benefit: Helps identify and prioritize orders based on specific customers, streamlining workflows for high-priority or repeat clients.
2. Carton Break Rule Column
Shows the carton break rules applied to the order during its creation via the Sales Order module.
Benefit: Provides clear visibility into how items are grouped or split into cartons, ensuring compliance with customer-specific packaging requirements.
3. Priority Column
Indicates the priority level assigned to each order.
Benefit: Enables users to quickly identify and process high-priority orders first, enhancing customer satisfaction and meeting urgent delivery deadlines.
Navigate to the Packing Page in XoroWMS and enter the LPN#.
The new columns—Customer Name, Carton Break Rule, and Priority—are now visible alongside existing fields.
Use these columns to sort, filter, or prioritize orders during the packing process.
The addition of the Customer Name, Carton Break Rule, and Priority columns enhances the functionality of the Packing Page in XoroWMS, making it more intuitive and efficient. These improvements allow for better visibility, prioritization, and compliance with customer-specific requirements.
The addition of the Quality Code and Quality Name columns in the Wave Centre module improves inventory quality tracking, enhances order fulfillment accuracy, and optimizes warehouse workflows. This update ensures that warehouses can efficiently allocate and track quality-specific inventory during wave processing.
Where It Has Been Added?
Wave Detail View – Displays the quality attributes of inventory associated with each wave.
Wave Detail Allocation View – Allows users to track quality information at the allocation level, ensuring that orders are fulfilled with the correct inventory.
Navigate to the Wave Centre module.
In the Wave Detail View, users will now see the newly added Quality Code and Quality Name columns, displaying quality classifications for inventory.
In the Wave Detail Allocation View, these columns provide additional insight into allocated inventory, ensuring that correct quality items are assigned to orders.

Feature Overview
The new ‘Receive Mixed Carton’ enhancement in XoroWMS enables users to receive multiple items simultaneously when handling mixed cartons during packing and shipping. This update significantly improves efficiency, reduces errors, and streamlines warehouse operations.
Previous Limitations
Before this enhancement, users could only receive one item at a time by:
Scanning a single item and manually entering the quantity.
Repeating the process for each item in a mixed carton.
Lacking a consolidated view of all received items, which led to inefficiencies and potential errors.
This method was time-consuming, especially for large mixed cartons, and required extra effort for tracking and verification.
