A rack is arranged by product. A label file is arranged by order. Somewhere between those two facts a packer walks the same aisle eleven times for eleven parcels that all hold the same kurta.
Tick Pick list details in the sort panel. Included in the free crop — no coins.
A hundred labels in order-ID sequence describe a hundred separate trips. The packer reads one label, fetches one item, comes back, reads the next, and passes the same shelf a dozen times before the batch is done. What is missing is not a better sort — it is one sheet that says how many of each article has to leave the shop today, before anybody picks up a single parcel.
The sheet is built from the labels in the order they will come off the printer, so each article first appears where the batch first reaches it — with every unit in that batch already totalled into the line. You are reading one number per article, not a running tally you have to add up yourself, and it is the same number whether you sorted the batch by SKU, by courier partner or not at all.
Tick Pick list details and the summary pages are appended to the end of the cropped file. They are A4 pages, not 4x6 — deliberately, because this sheet is for the person walking the rack, not for the thermal printer. Send the labels to the roll and this page to plain paper, and the picking is done before the first parcel is taped.
