Automatic alternate SSCC - if aternative SSCC is identical
Consider the following situation:
Location A contains 15 pallets, each containing 100 pieces of Item B. Same batch/batch2/bbd.
The 15 SSCC's are for all intents and purposes identical except for LUID and SSCC.
When an user gets directed to pick from this stock during normal picking, he gets presented with one specific SSCC to pick (the one with the lowest LUID number).
However, since the other 14 are identical, the user wants to pick another because it is physically easier to reach. This is currently not possible. User has to click "Other Tasks" -> "Alternate stock" and only then can scan an alternative SSCC.
Feature request: Improve this flow so it accepts an alternate but identical SSCC. Release locking on the original one, and mark the scanned one as picked (and therefore locked to the picklist) instead, skipping the Other Tasks > Alternate stock button presses.
Note that I am not suggesting to do this when the batch/batch2/bbd does not match. This is for identical pallets only. Selecting a different batch should remain a conscious choice to make via Alternative Stock.

We have this issue too. Its complicated further if another picklist / picklist proposal is allocated against the same SKU / Batch / Location combo as those SSCCs allocated to the order wont appear in the Alternative stock either
Basically as it stands Produmex cant properly support LIFO / pushback locations which is a big shortcoming IMHO.
Its a huge frustration for warehouse staff who just want to pick the item in front them which is correct item.
