Set up your Picking Preferences
The first time you go to pick, you’ll be shown our Picking Onboarding Wizard. First you'll need to choose if you want to Pick With Your Mobile Device or Printed Paper. These options will suit different sellers with different workflows.
To use the picking on boarding wizard, follow these steps:
Tick the check box to the left of the orders you would like to add to your batch.
Click Actions > Pick.
If the order is already marked as picked or partially picked you will get a pop- up letting you know that this will not be added to the batch. Click exclude orders and continue.
If you have used this feature before you will be given the option to pick with saved preferences. If not, you will need to set up your preferences
Select if you would like to Pick with your mobile device (if you have Power Features enabled) or use Printed Paper
Picking with Paper
Picking with Paper
Once you have selected "printed paper":
Select the picking location.
Choose from the tote options:
Single Tote. If you choose Single Tote, skip to step 4.
Multi-tote.
If you choose multi tote, select the number of picking totes you use and print their labels. Assign the labels to the totes.
Fill in your picking settings:
how many orders on a pick list before it is split? This setting determines the maximum number of orders on a pick list.
set a max number of products. This is the maximum number of products on a pick list. When the total orders on a pick list reaches this number, a new pick list will be generated. If a single order exceeds this number of products, the order will not be split across multiple pick lists.
Click Send to print.
To check on the pick list, you can view the print queue by clicking on the printer icon in the top right corner of the navigation bar.
NOTE: Only unshipped items will appear in your list.

assign to a specific picker (select a user).
Click "Send to pick".
NOTE: Any orders added to the group which is not assigned to the location you have chosen while setting up will be excluded from the group.
Once you have gone through the Picking Onboarding Wizard, Veeqo will remember your preferences for future picking groups.
Picking Totes
For both paper and digital picking, you can choose between multi-tote and single tote picking:
Single totes: all items will be picked to one container. This is best for single line item orders.
Multi-totes: one container will be assigned to a single order. This is best for multi-line item orders.
NOTE: Setting picking totes up is an optional part of setting up your pick list and isn’t required to use mobile device picking.
If you’ve opted to enable picking totes, the wizard will also ask you how many picking totes you’d like to use. You can then print labels to assign to your totes.
TIP: Laminate the tote labels and stick them to your totes so they can be re-used!
Editing Picking Preferences
You can edit your Picking preferences at any time:
Select an order.
Click "actions" and Pick".
The picking modal will open. Click "reset preferences" at the bottom.
You can now adjust your settings by going through the Picking Onboarding Wizard again.
NOTE: Adjusting the number of orders per picking group will un-assign all totes from any open batches.
