Overview
The Pack screen is the warehouse hand's whole job on one phone screen. It pulls the next order that's ready to pack, shows you what to grab line by line, and lets you tick off units with thumb-sized +/- buttons or a barcode check. No paper pick-slip, no shouting across the floor — open the phone, pack what's on screen, hit confirm. The progress bar tells you exactly how many units are left.
Where to find it
Mobile only. Open /m/warehouse/pack on the phone. The warehouse app has a single tab — Pack (the package icon) in the bottom bar — so there's nowhere else to get lost.
Who sees it: Warehouse and Manager. The owner does not have the warehouse view; this screen is for the floor.
A camera icon sits in the top-right of the header — tap it to slide open the barcode panel.
Key concepts
- Pack queue — the live list of orders waiting to be packed. Neev loads the next batch (up to 8) and puts the most urgent one in front of you: the first allocated order if there is one, otherwise the first in line.
- Picking list — the product lines for the chosen order, one card at a time. The current line is the pink-bordered card with the big number.
- Remaining — the 54px number on the line card is what's still to pack; below it, "OF 12" is the total required for that line.
- Confirmed vs allocated — an order's status drives the big black button. Confirmed shows "Start packing"; allocated shows "Confirm packed".
- Barcode check — the scan panel matches the code you type or scan against the line's SKU. A match adds one unit; a wrong code is rejected so you don't pack the wrong item.
Common workflows
Role notes
Both Warehouse and Manager can open this screen and run packing — every action here uses the same orders.pack permission, which both roles carry.
Warehouse packs orders but does not create, confirm, or dispatch them. The warehouse hand cannot start an order or move it onto a delivery run — once you confirm packed, the order is handed off to shipping for the next role to dispatch. Warehouse also has no access to invoices, payments, customers, or pricing.
Manager runs day-to-day operations across the spine, so a manager can pack here too and also handle the order workflow on the desktop. A manager still cannot void an invoice or change tenant settings — those stay with the owner.
Neither role can edit the product master from this screen — it's a packing surface, not a catalog tool.
Tips & time-savers
The screen refreshes the queue on its own about once a minute and when you bring it back into focus, so a newly allocated order shows up without you reloading.
Gotchas
If the picking list can't load for an order, you'll see "Picking list unavailable" with an Open order details link that jumps to the full order on the desktop so a manager can check it.
A queue-clear state ("Queue clear") just means there are no confirmed or allocated orders waiting — nothing to pack right now.
