How to Use the Sort Module in RazorERP and the Mobile App

This article explains how to use the Sort Module in RazorERP, including creating an order, sorting materials, and generating reports. Follow the steps below to ensure proper setup and execution.

Step 1: Creating an Order in the System

Open

1. Start by creating a new order:

   • Enter details such as the number of pallets (e.g., 40 pallets) and total weight (e.g., 30,000 lbs).

   • Save the order. For example, the system generates Order #10148.

2. Receive the order:

   • Mark it as Mixed Electronics. Assign a weight for each pallet (e.g., 240 lbs/pallet).

   • Place the items into Gaylord boxes and receive them for sorting.

   • Each received pallet is assigned a unique ID (e.g., 530, 531, 532).

Open

3. Finalize receiving:

   • Ensure all items are received correctly, and the total weight is calculated (e.g., 8,000 lbs).

   • Click Receive Order to check the materials into the system.

Open

Step 2: Setting Up the Sort Job in the RazorERP Mobile App

1. Access the Sort Module in the RazorERP Mobile App:

   • Open the app, navigate to the main menu, and select Recycling > Create Demand Sort.

Open

2. Set up the sort details:

   • Select the date, time, and warehouse where the sort job will occur.

   • Choose a Sort Zone (required for mass balancing materials).

   • If available, choose a Commodity Profile to streamline the setup.

Open

3. Start the sort job:

   • Create bins for sorting:

     • Use existing bins or generate new ones by selecting the relevant commodities (e.g., Ribbon Wire, Plastic, Copper).

     • Assign a tare weight and packaging type (e.g., Gaylord box).

     • Print and label the bins.

   • Once bins are set up, click Setup Complete to finalize.

Step 3: Adding Gaylord Boxes to the Sort Job

1. Select the sort job:

   • From the app, navigate to the job ready to start (e.g., Zone 51).

2. Scan and add Gaylord boxes:

   • Scan the received Gaylord boxes (e.g., 240 lbs each) into the zone.

   • Repeat until the total weight matches the received amount (e.g., 8,000 lbs).

Open

3. Begin sorting:

   • Sort materials into the designated bins (e.g., Ribbon Wire, Plastic, Copper).

Step 4: Closing the Job and Recording Weights

1. Close the sort job:

   • Slide left on the app to select Close Job.

   • Scan the output Gaylord boxes and update their weights (e.g., Ribbon Wire: 1,540 lbs, Plastic: 1,040 lbs).

   • Ensure the total output weight matches the input weight (e.g., 8,000 lbs).

Open

2. Add notes (optional):

   • Add relevant notes to the job if needed.

   • Click Continue to finalize the sort job.

Step 5: Viewing Reports and Finalizing Settlement

1. Generate reports on the computer:

   • Refresh the screen to view sorted Gaylord boxes and their respective weights.

   • Go to Reports > Job Analysis List to review job details (e.g., Job J15).

   • View inputs, outputs, and material distribution by zone and weight.

Open

2. Finalize settlement:

   • Access the settlement for the order (e.g., Order #10148).

   • Switch to the Processed View to see the component outputs.

   • Assign pricing for each material:

     • Example: Ribbon Wire: $1.25/lb, Plastic: $0.08/lb, Copper: $2.85/lb.

   • The system calculates costs and provides a structured breakdown for settlement with the customer.
