Batch number Ascending > Pick Batch number in ascending order (A-Z 0-9)

Batch number Descending > Pick Batch number in descending order (Z-A 9-0)

Only picks ONE STOCK GROUP and will not split the line. If no stock group has enough quantity then pick will fail for the line and the user must MANUAL PICK the batches.

This allows the customisation of the ORDER BY clause used to specify the stock record selection order to fulfill the line item.

This allows very detailed customisation of the PICK line by line - allowing code to executed and the PICK METHOD to change based on any set of variables.

For example you could have a different pick method per item number or have a different strategy depending on the day of the week.
