General Rules

1 min read Updated October 28, 2026

General rules apply to everyone in the warehouse.

General rules control warehouse-wide rules for picking and shipping. To open them, go to Settings and select General.

Picking

  • One operator per pick: locks a pick while someone is working it. This is off by default, so anyone can open any pick. When on, a second user is blocked while someone is already in the pick. The lock frees automatically when the user finishes, leaves the screen, or their session times out, so a pick never stays stuck.
  • Only picks that can be picked in full: hides picks where any line is short on stock. Picks that are already started always show.

Quantity rules, such as partial picks and overpicking, are set in Fishbowl Settings.

Shipping

Signature on ship sets whether the person receiving the goods signs when a shipment ships:

  • Off: no signature pad.
  • Optional: the signature pad is offered, but shipping without it is allowed.
  • Required: a signature is needed to ship.

See the Shipments page.
