A Sales Order "Pick List" will be printed if the Sales Order does not yet have a Shipment Number associated with it—that is, if no Line Item quantity has been issued to shipping. If stock has been issued to Shipping, then the "Packing List" report definition will be used. The Pick List and Packing List Form assignments are made on the Customer Form Assignments screen.

The system includes two alternate Sales Order Pick List report definitions:
