Use Wave Priority Boost (4.15.15) to manually change the order priority or the task priority of a wave. When you boost the priority of a wave, you boost the priority of all the orders or all tasks on the wave. Since batch picking displays orders by descending priority, those orders display at the top of the list once you boost priority.

You assign task priority in the Priority field in Internal Routing Maintenance (4.2.5). If there is no internal routing defined for the movement, then the task priority is set for transactions in the Priority field in Work Location Group Maintenance (4.3.9).

You define the order priority for a customer in Address Warehouse Detail Maintenance (4.13.13), which defaults to any order you create for the customer. You use Order Warehouse Data Maintenance (4.13.1) to view priority.

To change the order or task priority, specify the wave number. The system displays the site, warehouse, and any remarks about the wave. Change the priority by entering new values in either the Order Priority or Task Priority field.
