Solution:

A picking ticket may be needed after a work order is created: the Work Order Traveler may be used in this regard. This article explains the general purpose and usage of the Work Order Traveler.

To use the Work Order Traveler as a picking ticket the following steps may be used:

1. Set up the Bill of Materials (BOM) in either the Production Entry (PE) or Work Order (WO)
   module. Go to the Bill of Materials Maintenance screen under the Maintain menu and create the
   BOM.
2. Create the work order by one of the following two methods:a.  Set the BOM to “Generate WO on SO Entry” through the BOM Maintenance screen.
   b.  Create the work order in the WO module through the Transaction menu and selecting Enter Work Orders.
3. Go to the WO module, choose the Print menu and select Work Order Travelers. There is the option to print the Work Order Traveler as a Batch or Individually. Refer to the page 149 of the WO Module Doc on Disk, for details on how to use the printing options.
4. The Work Order Traveler may now be printed for all work orders that need to be completed.  It can be sent to the shop floor and issued to an employee who can use the Traveler to determine the location and quantity of the item to select.
