 ===== Warehouse =====
+==== Hide inactive warehouses ====
+When enabled, this option hides all warehouses marked as inactive in SAP Business One from warehouse selection lists.  \\
+Note: The warehouse(s) must be set to "inactive" in SAP Business One for this setting to have an effect.
+==== Show inactive bin locations ====
+When enabled, bin locations that are marked as inactive in SAP Business One will still be shown in selection lists within COBI.wms. \\

 **If you added the UDF after already having installed COBI.wms, an additional step is needed to make COBI.wms recognize it:** Execute the SQL command **''DROP VIEW <nowiki>cwms__version</nowiki>''** on your SAP Business One company database (like ''SBODEMODE''), and restart the app.
-**Note:** In newer versions of COBI.wms, the view ''<nowiki>cwms__version</nowiki>'' has been renamed to ''<nowiki>cwXX__version</nowiki>'' where ''XX'' stands for the current COBI.wms **minor** version, e.g. ''<nowiki>cw40__version</nowiki>'' for Version ''2.40''.  In this case, the correct SQL command would be ''DROP VIEW <nowiki>cw40__version</nowiki>''.

@@ Line 102: / Line 114: @@
 When enabled, purchase or delivery orders assigned to DropShip warehouses will be excluded from the list. This helps to avoid confusion and ensures that only relevant stock-related orders are displayed in the receipt process.
+==== Show subnumber of purchase order ====
+When enabled, COBI.wms displays the subnumbers of purchase orders during goods receipt. \\
+This helps users clearly identify and distinguish between multiple positions on a single purchase order.
 ===== Picking =====
@@ Line 143: / Line 160: @@
 When enabled, items in the pick list are grouped and displayed according to their originating base documents (e.g. sales orders or production orders). In the case of consolidated pick lists, multiple base document numbers will be shown.
 Users can tap on a specific base document number to view only the items associated with that document, making it easier to track and process grouped deliveries.
+==== Show if pick list is already started ====
+A green 'In Progress' label is displayed in the list view once a user starts the picking process using the new 'Start Picking' button. \\
+If another user tries to open a list that is already in progress, a warning message appears: 'This list is already being worked on. Continue?' \\
+This helps warehouse staff avoid duplicate processing and improves transparency during ongoing operations.
+UDF definition:
+^ Category     ^ Title    ^ Description      ^  Type  ^   Validation  ^  Values    ^
+| Inventory -> Pick List | ''WMS_Start'' | Started? | Alphanumeric | Valid Values | Y - Yes/N - No |
+==== Picking with unit ====
+A new 'Pick Unit' button allows users to add or scan a pick unit, enabling picking based on predefined packaging units. \\
+This improves efficiency when handling bulk or standardized packaging units.
+==== Show text lines from sales orders ====
+When enabled, text lines from the original sales order will be displayed during picking. \\
+This provides useful information for the picker, such as special handling instructions or customer notes.
+Note: Text lines are read from SAP Business One and displayed for reference only.
+==== Show transport type ====
+Displays the transport or shipping method (e.g. "UPS Express") during the picking process. \\
+This helps logistics personnel prepare for packing and shipping according to customer preferences. \\
+Note: The transport type must be defined in the sales order in SAP Business One.
+==== Group similar articles ====
+Groups identical items within the pick list to avoid duplicate lines. \\
+This simplifies the picking process and reduces unnecessary repetition for the warehouse staff. \\
+Note: Only articles with matching item codes and units are grouped.
 ===== Delivery =====
@@ Line 149: / Line 201: @@
 Normally, whenever a delivery note is booked from the app, the Due Date field of the booked delivery note will be set to the current date.  If this option is enabled, and the delivery that you're booking is based on a sales order, then the Due Date field of the sales order will be copied to the Due Date field of the delivery note.
+==== Don't show documents for DropShip-Warehouses ====
+When enabled, delivery documents linked to DropShip warehouses are hidden in COBI.wms. This ensures that only relevant warehouse-based deliveries are shown, preventing confusion when handling virtual or supplier-managed stock.
+Note: A warehouse must be marked as a "DropShip" warehouse in SAP Business One for this filter to take effect.
 ==== Delivery packing slips ====
@@ Line 217: / Line 274: @@
 When enabled, the system allows delivery documents to include line items with a quantity of 0. This can be useful for retaining item structure or references in the document, even if no quantity is being delivered for specific lines.

+==== Choose shipping address for delivery =====
----
+Allows the user to manually select the shipping address during the delivery process. \\
+This is useful when multiple delivery addresses exist or when a different address is required than the one stored in the sales order. \\
+Note: By default, the shipping address from SAP Business One is pre-filled but can be adjusted here.
 ==== Hide inactive Package Types (requires UDF) ====
-When enabled, this option hides package types that are marked as inactive using a specific User-Defined Field (UDF). This helps to simplify selection lists by displaying only active and relevant packaging options.

+Note: The warehouse must be flagged as a "DropShip" warehouse in SAP Business One for this option to have an effect.
 ===== Issue for Production =====
@@ Line 250: / Line 310: @@
 When enabled, the system verifies if all required materials for the production are available in stock. If not, a warning icon (exclamation mark) is shown to indicate that the production receipt cannot be completed due to missing stock quantity.

+This gives warehouse staff immediate visibility into whether materials have already been issued. \\
+Note: This information is based on the production status in SAP Business One.
 ===== Receipt from Production =====
@@ Line 256: / Line 322: @@
 The final booking screen of the Receipt From Production module normally allows the user to check a checkbox to close the production order for which the receipt is being booked.  Enabling this option will hide that checkbox so COBI.wms users cannot close production orders.
+==== Automatically close production orders on reaching or exceeding open quantity ====

+This is useful for packaging, space planning, and transport calculations. \\
+Note: Dimensions must be maintained in SAP Business One item master data.
+==== Show default bin ====

+This helps pickers or stockers quickly locate the item within the warehouse. \\
+Note: The default bin must be set in SAP Business One if bin location management is enabled.

+This is critical for traceability and quality control in regulated industries.
+Note: The item must be marked as serialized or batch-managed in SAP Business One.
