Update Time: 27 Oct 2025 04:53

With the BigSeller App, you can generate waves and complete the picking process directly on your mobile device—no need to print paper pick lists. This helps to streamline your operation and makes it more cost-effective.

1. Generate wave

Step 1: If a sub-account wants to generate a wave in the app, the main account must grant it the Generate Wave permission under Roles.
 

 
Step: 2 Go to BigSeller APP > Click Generate Wave


 

2. Wave Picking

After generating a wave, you can use the BigSeller app for picking without the need to print a pick list, enabling a fully paperless workflow.

Step 1: Go to Wave Picking

Step 2: You can tap the icon in the top right corner to switch warehouses.

On the Wave Picking page, you’ll see waves under To Claim (not yet claimed by any operator) and Pending (already claimed by your account).

Step 3: Find the wave you’re about to pick (scan the wave number / tracking number / order number / package number), enter the Picking Cart No., and start the picking operation.



 

Step 4: Pick SKUs with BigSeller APP

The BigSeller App Wave Picking supports two methods: Sort After Picking and Picking While Sorting.
 

2.1 Picking While Sorting

1) You need to follow the shelf locations displayed on the screen to locate the SKU.



2) Scan the SKU label, then place the item into the basket indicated on the screen.
 

3) Once one SKU is picked, the next SKU will automatically be shown.
4) Just repeat the steps until all items in the wave have been scanned and placed into their corresponding baskets.
5) You can check which baskets the current SKU needs to be placed into. Once done, tap Picking Completed to quickly finish picking for that basket with one click.



6) End the operation after picking completed. After that, you need to go to Scan Package page on BigSeller PC version to print shipping labels.

2.2 Sort After Picking

1) Follow the shelf location displayed on the screen to find the item.

2) Scan each unit one by one according to the required quantity, then place the items on the picking cart.

3) Once done, the screen will move to the next SKU.

4) Repeat these steps until all items have been picked in the correct quantities.

5) After picking is completed, you need to open the Secondary Picking page on the PC version to sort the SKUs into their respective baskets as part of the second-stage operation.


 

3. Secondary Picking [New Feature]

In large-scale sorting scenarios (such as big racks or floor sorting), using a computer and handheld scanner can be inconvenient. To make operations easier, BigSeller introduces the Secondary Picking feature on PDA/mobile devices.
  • Mobile-Friendly: Pickers can sort directly on a PDA or smartphone, without constantly walking back to a computer.
  • Seamless Collaboration: When sorting and packing share the same workstation, pickers use PDA for sorting while packers use computers for scanning, avoiding workflow conflicts.
  • Streamlined Process (Print Before Picking): If shipping labels are printed before picking, pickers scan tracking number on the waybill using PDA to start wave picking / secondary picking operation.
Notes: Before using the app for Secondary Picking, please complete the following settings.

1. Permission Settings: If a sub-account needs to use this feature, the main account must enable the permission for the sub-account’s role.



2. Mobile Device Settings: In the APP Secondary Picking list, the display of package count / item count / SKU types within a wave is turned off by default. When enabled, the corresponding fields will be shown.



3. Picking Method Settings: Must be set to 'Sort After Picking - Scan to Pick'



4. Methods to Print Shipping Label: Currently, it is not possible to print shipping labels through the app's Secondary Picking function. Please choose a method other than [Print in Secondary Picking] to print the shipping label, or manually print the shipping label from the wave list before picking.


Steps to Conduct Secondary Picking in BigSeller APP
 
Step 1: Open the APP and go to the Secondary Picking page.

 
 
Step 2: Select a wave to start the operation (you can also start by entering or scanning the Wave Number, Picking Cart Number, Tracking Number, Package Number, or Order Number).

 

3.1 Sort By Single SKU Process

1) Take any SKU from the cart and scan the Merchant SKU / GTIN. Each time a SKU is scanned, the Sorted quantity for that SKU increases by 1.
2) The screen will display the basket number where the SKU should be placed, along with a voice prompt. Place the SKU in the corresponding basket.



3) Continue scanning the next SKU and repeat the above steps until all SKUs are sorted.
4) Complete the secondary picking task.
 

3.2 Sort by Grouped SKU Process

1) Take the first type of SKU from the cart and scan the Merchant SKU / GTIN.
2) The screen will show which sorting bins the SKU should go into, and the quantity required for each bin. Place the SKUs according to the instructions into the designated baskets, and the click to mark as Completed.

 

3) Continue scanning the next SKU and repeat the above steps until all SKUs are sorted.
4) Complete the secondary picking task.

3.3 Unlabeled Picking Mode

  • The Unlabeled Picking Mode is designed for scenarios where some SKUs are labeled, and others are not.
  • In secondary picking, once the labelled items have been scanned, you can turn on the unlabelled picking mode. In this mode, you can manually sort the unlabelled SKUs without the need for scanning.
1) Complete the sorting of all labeled items first.
2) Once this is done, turn on the unlabelled picking mode.



3) Follow the on-screen instructions to pick the SKUs and place the items into the designated picking basket according to the specified quantity.



4) Manually enter the quantity of SKUs that have been sorted, or click [Current Basket Picking Completed].

 
 
5) Repeat this process until all unlabelled items are picked.Once all baskets have completed the sorting process, the system will display a "Complete Sorting" message.
