Mobile Device -

This topic applies to features in the Warehouse management module. It does not apply to features in the Inventory management module.

This topic describes how to configure the menu items that workers use to perform work on a mobile device. Menu items are displayed on the mobile device menu. The configuration of these menu items determines what the menu item is used for. You can configure menu items to do the following:

• Process an inquiry or perform an activity, such as print a label, generate license plate numbers, start a production order, or quickly look up information about items in a location.
• Create work that will be performed through another process. For example, receiving an item for a purchase order can create put away work for another worker.
• Perform work that was created by another process. This is called existing work. For example, performing put away work that was created when an item was received for a purchase order.
