# Pick List

:lock: PickList.**Show**

A **Pick List** is created from one or more **Transfer Requirements**. The **pick list** defines specific Materials to be picked in order to fulfill the **Transfer Requirement**. The **Material** IDs are generated using a picking strategy and picking sequence defined for the Storage **Area**, remaining editable by users with the proper permission set.

!!! note
	One **Pick List** can be used to fulfill multiple **Transfer Requirements** provided that the Source and Target locations are the same.

## Pick List Lifecycle

A **Pick List**, during its life cycle, follows the state model as illustrated in the next picture.

The lifecycle is further described in the table below.

| State | Description |
|--|-----|
| **Open** | The Pick List has been created and it's ready to be picked |
| **In Progress** | At least one Pick List item has been picked |
| **Picked** | All Pick List items have been picked |
| **In Transport** | All Pick List items are currently in transport |
| **Delivered** | All Pick List items have been delivered |
| **Closed** | All Pick List items have been confirmed |
| **Canceled** | The Pick List has been canceled - only possible to be triggered from the Cancel Transfer Requirement |

Table: Pick List lifecycle

A **Transfer Requirement** can be configured to create separate **Pick Lists** for MSD material. Also, when picking an MSD material, if the MSD remaining time is below a certain configurable threshold (MSD warning time), the system will display a warning to the operator
