Article • 4/29/2023 • 2 min read

When you scan a License Plate tracked item in the Aptean Mobile Warehouse app, you can use the Autofill function to scan the Box Label barcode during a full or partial pick. The following prerequisites should be performed in Business Central to do so:

On the Extension Management page, install Catch Weight Extension, SSCC extension, LPL extension, and MWR extension.
On the Catch Weight Setup page, in the Unit of Measure Code field, choose KG.
On the Customer SSCC Setup page, turn off the Enable SSCC toggle and in the Require Shipping Unit field, choose BOX.
On the Item Card page, on the Inventory FastTab, turn on the Catch Weight toggle.

Full pick of a License Plate tracked item using Autofill

The following procedure describes how to perform a full pick of a License Plate tracked item using Autofill:

On the Aptean Mobile Warehouse app home page, select the Pick icon.
In the Pick/SO/Trans/WMS No. field, enter or scan the Warehouse Pick number.
In the Identifier field, enter or scan the barcode.
The License Plate No., Item No. and Lot No. are picked.
Select the AssistEdit button on the top right corner, and choose Start Box Autofill (F7) to start the autofill process.
In the Identifier field, enter or scan the Box Label barcode.
Repeat step 5 to scan all the remaining Box Label barcode to complete the Pick.

Each Box Label barcode should consist of a different Shipping Unit No. In case, you have turned on the Mandatory SSCC Shipping Types toggle, you will have to approve the Shipping Container Code in Step 5.

Repeat step 4 to stop autofill.

Once you register the Pick activity on the Aptean Mobile Warehouse app, the recorded scan data gets transferred to the Quantity to Handle and Weight Qty. Handled fields on the Warehouse Picks page. The Weight Qty. Handled field gets updated based on the average weight of the item on the License Plate. The Weight Quantity field is updated in the Posted SSCC Lines table on the Posted SSCC Card page in Business Central.
