Manage Pick Lists
Last updated: 2026-08-12
1. Scenario
Pick List Management is the central page for Pick Lists created during Pick List Creation. It shows quantities, progress, and operational statuses, and provides actions for printing picking lists, merging shipping labels, assigning pickers, shipping, and canceling Pick Lists.
Use this page to find a Pick List, open its picking details, assign a picker, print an A4 picking list, merge its labels, ship eligible Pick Lists, or cancel Pick Lists that have not shipped. If no Pick List exists yet, go to GWMS-Outbound Management-Pick List Creation and create one first.
2. Steps
Prerequisites
- Your account can access
GWMS-Outbound Management-Pick List Management. - Your account has the required permission for 【Ship】 or 【Cancel】 when using those actions.
- For paper picking lists, the computer has a printer and the browser can open its print dialog.
2.1 Search and review Pick Lists
- Go to
GWMS-Outbound Management-Pick List Management. - Set filters as needed: 【Warehouse】, 【Pick List No.】, 【Picking Method】, 【Outbound Status】, 【Label Status】, 【Picking Status】, 【Carrier】, 【Picker】, 【Remarks】, and 【Created At】.
- Click 【Search】.
The list shows Warehouse Code, Pick List No., Picking Method, Quantity, Carrier, Picker, Remarks, Creation Info, Progress, and Status. Quantity combines order count, SKU item count, and location count. Progress shows labeling and review progress. Status combines picking, labeling, review, loading, and outbound statuses.
Use the settings control in the filter area to choose visible filters. Use the settings control above the list to choose visible columns.
2.2 Open order and picking details
Click a 【Pick List No.】 to open its order details and check orders, SKUs, locations, and required picking quantities. Use the copy icon beside the number to copy it; GWMS prompts 【Copied successfully】.
2.3 Assign a picker
- Select 【Warehouse】 in the filter area.
- Select one or more Pick Lists and click 【Set Picker】.
- Select 【Picker】 and click 【Confirm】.
GWMS prompts 【Please select a warehouse first】 if no warehouse is selected. Picker is required and its options come from the selected warehouse. After saving, GWMS prompts 【Set successfully】 and refreshes the list.
2.4 Print picking lists
- Select one or more Pick Lists.
- Click 【Print Picking List】.
- GWMS displays 【Generating print content...】 and opens the browser print dialog.
- Confirm the printer, copies, and A4 paper settings, then print.
Without a selection, action buttons are disabled. A valid request ends with 【Print request sent】; an error shows 【Print failed】. When multiple Pick Lists are selected, each Pick List is added as a separate page in the same print task.
The A4 picking list contains the Pick List barcode, page number, order count, SKU count, location count, picker, carrier, print time, remarks, and Location/GSKU/SKU Name/Quantity details. Missing picker and remarks are shown as Unassigned and None.
2.5 Merge shipping labels
- Select one Pick List.
- Click 【Merge and Print Labels】.
- GWMS shows the merged count, total count, percentage, and task status.
- When merging succeeds, downloading starts automatically.
This action currently processes only the first selected Pick List. Process multiple Pick Lists one at a time. If the task fails, GWMS displays the task error; if no download address is returned, it reports that no label download link was obtained.
2.6 Cancel Pick Lists
- Select the Pick Lists and click 【Cancel】.
- Confirm the cancellation prompt.
- GWMS reports success and refreshes the list.
Only Not Shipped Pick Lists can be canceled. If any order in a Pick List has shipped, GWMS blocks cancellation. After cancellation, the orders return to Not Pick Listed and can be included in a new Pick List.
