Introduction
For this method, the removal of materials from stock and the allocation of the total quantity to the
individual requirements takes place in two separate steps.
You have to form a Group of the outbound deliveries or transfer requirements relevant for
outbound delivery.
2-step picking divides the picking process in the warehouse into two separate steps:
Step 1: Removal: In the first step, you pick the entire quantity of materials needed to fulfill the
requirements from several deliveries or transfer requirements.
Step 2: Allocation: During withdrawal, you take the total required quantity of each material specified
in the outbound deliveries or transfer requirements from the source storage bin to an interim
storage area (interim storage bin).
During the second step, you divide up the materials and allocate them to the individual
requirements. You transfer the respective partial quantities from the intermediate storage area to
the respective destination storage bins.

Advantages
With this procedure, you pick a large number of outbound deliveries or transfer requirements all
together. Advantages of two-step picking include:
You remove the total amount of material required in the first step. In doing so, you minimize
the total number of picking transactions necessary for picking.
Stock removal and allocation are two separate warehouse processes. You create a
separate transfer order for each of these steps.
You can monitor each step of the 2-step picking process in detail at any time.
