a pack slip denotes what should be "packed" for a delivery. It may consolidate s
everal orders to a route, truck or customer. However, in some businesses the pac
k slip or packing slip shows what has been "picked" for delivery or shipment
a pick sheet denotes what items to pull from inventory. it too may be derived fr
om consolidated orders.
for example:Customers A, B and C all have orders shipping today. Each customer i
s within 10min of each other and all will be delivered from the same truck/route
. A single pack slip is generated, detailing the 3 customers orders (qty and ite
ms) for the truck.
depending on the type of picking utilized, one or several pick sheets may be gen
erated. in this case, we'll say there are three "picking zones" in the warehouse
. so three pick slips are generated, one for each zone. the pick slip tells each
zone picker what items to pick. the three zones then deliver their picked items
to a staging zone where the items are sorted into 3 boxes, one for each custome
r. these boxes get loaded onto the truck and each one is checked against the pac
k slip to ensure that each customer is receiving their order accurately.
in short: a pick slip facilitates the method/order/consolidation of picking item
s from inventory. a pack slip facilitates the method in which orders are consoli
dated/organized and shipped to a customer.
"pick" - pick it from inventory
"pack" - pack up the truck
