Over the last month I’ve helped a few different people with an issue where when work is released to the warehouse work may or may not be created, but if it is it turns out that there is no pick location specified.

In these different incidents the items being used were batch tracked items.  There’s a setting on the location directives that’s easy to miss and not think about if you’re using batch tracked item. 

The setting is in the Location directive actions settings and is called Batch enabled.  

If you run into a situation where you are using batch numbers and the pick side isn’t getting a location be sure and check this setting first.
