> Gather allocated stock from bulk, place it in the pick face and verify replenishment, including short completion where allowed.

Complete an existing replenishment job to move bulk stock into its assigned pick face. Confirm the actual gathered quantity before placing it at the destination.

## Before you begin

Your role must allow replenishment work and claiming the job when needed. Check the assigned equipment, source, destination, tracking details and job quantity. Work the existing job rather than creating another move for stock already reserved to it.

## Complete a replenishment job

Replenishment jobs are executed in two steps — pick from bulk, then place into the pick face:

**On desktop:**

1. Go to the **Replenishment dashboard** and select a pending job.
2. Review the product, source (bulk) location, destination (pick face), and quantity.
3. Follow the job to gather the stock from bulk onto your equipment, then confirm placement into the destination pick face.

**On mobile:**

1. Open the replenishment job in the WMS app.
2. **Phase 1 — Pick**: Navigate to the bulk storage location, confirm the product and quantity.
3. **Phase 2 — Move**: Confirm the destination pick face and submit the putaway.

Both phases are guided step-by-step with barcode scanning support. Existing assigned, paused or in-progress jobs remain in the queue until you explicitly complete or cancel them. Stock arriving at the face through another movement does not complete your job for you.

The job detail keeps the source, destination, equipment, quantity and batch information visible while the replenishment is in progress.

## Adjust the quantity while picking on desktop

For non-serial stock, use the scan counter or quantity buttons to pick more than the suggested source quantity. For example, you can scan a carton of 100 against a suggestion of 96. Select **Continue** to submit the actual quantity.

WMS checks that the extra units are available from the same source, batch and expiry. Scanning alone does not reserve the extra stock. Serial-tracked stock keeps its fixed-unit limit.

The counter warns when you exceed the suggestion because the pick face may be full. Check the destination before continuing and review any capacity warning returned after the movement. If the pick fails, adjust the retained counter and retry after resolving the reported issue. After success, check the refreshed job quantity before placing the stock.

To finish a line below its target, the applicable workflow policy must allow **Partial/Manual Completion** and the line must have some stock already picked. See the [WMS settings reference](/articles/14700000000031-wms-settings-reference) to check the policy. Then:

1. Commit any pending scanned quantity with **Continue**.
2. Select **Finish at [picked quantity] of [target quantity]**.
3. Review the gathered quantity and the unpicked remainder, then select **Confirm finish short**.
4. Check the updated line quantity and complete placement into the destination.

Finishing short releases that line's unused reservations. It does not pick pending scans or change other lines. If WMS reports a conflict or an uncertain result, refresh the job before attempting another action.

## Assigning and prioritising replenishment jobs

You can assign replenishment jobs to specific team members and set their priority. Higher-priority jobs appear at the top of the queue on the Replenishment dashboard and in the mobile app.

Use **Allocate Now** from an eligible job's dashboard row menu to reserve source stock. This action is hidden when the job already has usable allocations; it does not assign a staff member.

## Verify placement

Check the job is complete, stock left the expected source and the destination quantity reflects the move. Stock arriving through another movement does not complete the assigned replenishment job. If submission is uncertain, refresh the job and inventory before repeating it.
