Pick Sequence
The Pick Sequence page allows you to view, create, edit, reorder, import, and delete pick sequence entries.
The Pick Sequence defines the order in which Package Types are prioritised when building pallets. Each entry assigns a priority number to a package type — the lower the number, the earlier that package type is processed. The table is always displayed sorted by priority in ascending order.
The core parameters of a pick sequence entry are:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| ID | Unique internal identifier of the pick sequence entry |
| Package ID | Link to the Package Type |
| Priority | Processing order — lower values are picked first |
Pick Sequence Table
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| ID | Unique pick sequence identifier |
| Package ID | Package type identifier |
| Package Name | Package type name (resolved from the Package Type Master) |
| Priority | Processing priority — the table is always sorted ascending by this value |
| Show 10 entries | Change this value to display more or fewer records in the table |
| Search | Filter the list by typing any string into this field |
| Buttons 1, 2, … Next | Page through the list of entries |
Context Sensitive Menu
Right-clicking any row opens the context menu:
| Menu Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Edit | Opens the Edit Pick Sequence dialog to modify the selected entry |
| Delete | Permanently deletes the selected entry after confirmation |
| Up | Moves the selected entry one position up by swapping its priority with the entry above |
| Down | Moves the selected entry one position down by swapping its priority with the entry below |

A new entry can be created via the Add Pick Sequence button in the sidebar Actions section.

Edit Pick Sequence
An existing entry can be modified via right-click → Edit in the table. The same dialog and fields as Add Pick Sequence are used, with the existing values pre-filled.
Actions
The sidebar Actions section contains the following controls:

Note: The Import, Add, Edit, Delete, Up, Down, and Renumber Pick Sequence functions are only available to users with the Editor or Administrator role. Users with read-only access see these controls greyed out and cannot interact with them.
