Hey Corporate - OPU

My team's biggest wish is that all water and soda are in bulky batches. Picking 10 gallons of water as one dpci in a batch of 40 items is awful for the picker and the three tier. Just stop this nonsense!

Does the Report Item toggle not work in converting those to Bulky eligible items?

Not entirely unrelated, items that drop into RTS shouldn't update OHs until RTS is worked. Everything should be located properly, either in the backroom or on the floor, and items sitting in RTS are not while still being eligible for OPU and SFS. Doesn't make sense.

Not sure if this is done elsewhere, but our soda/water falls into separate GM batches that are like 10 (15) or whatever. Fast as hell (200+ uph), doesn't overfill the 3-tier, and I love them because they're great for sniping when somebody is about to leave or go on break but can't yet.

We get these very occasionally.

I've heard they might allow multiple RFID enabled items to be searched for at once. That would greatly optimize the search for those items, as opposed to doing them one at a time.

Where did you hear that rumor? 🙂

I made a small change in ePick last year to let you do multi-item RFID. I did a very small single device, single day pilot. The experience was pretty bad and needed deeper integration into ePick.

What you laid out through the rest of this post is kinda the minimum for it to be useful. But I hadn't heard anyone at Target thinking about that besides me so I'm curious!

It seems I may have been mistaken, as I can't seem to find where I read that. I'll just say I'm a huge Target nerd who keeps my ear really close to the ground.

I still think there is a use case where it leads to more optimal usage of the RFID gun when picking. Especially ship-from-store batches. I think a really well defined user story would need to be written that makes the case that it provides enough meaningful incremental value to justify the under-the-hood development that would likely need to take place to make it viable.
