Managing Tasks
In a warehouse, besides order picking and receiving purchase orders, many other tasks need to be done regularly. Think of sweeping aisles, restocking packing tables, or counting stock.
With Tasks in Picqer, you can easily track and delegate these tasks within your team, ensuring nothing gets forgotten. Tasks are always visible to everyone.
How does it work?
You can easily create a task and add a short description. Examples include:
- Restocking packing tables
- Printing and placing new barcode labels
- Counting stock in aisle A
- Sweeping aisles
By default, a task only has a title, but you can also add a detailed description. This is useful for instructions or additional details. Text formatting with line breaks is preserved, and links become clickable.
When creating a task, you can set a deadline with a date and time. This is useful for tasks that need to be completed at a specific time of the day.
You can also assign a task to a colleague. If there are tasks assigned to you that you haven't seen yet, a red dot will appear in the top bar next to the task icon.
Recurring Tasks
You can create recurring tasks for repetitive tasks. This ensures that a task is automatically created based on a frequency you choose.
This is useful for tasks that need to be done regularly, such as:
- Cleaning the warehouse every Friday
- Restocking packing tables daily
- Performing a stock count monthly
When setting up a recurring task, you choose the frequency and an optional deadline.
