Training must be completed before using the Handheld Terminals (HHT) functionality.
Please email Development for more information.
Note: there will be additional costs involved if this option is enabled.


Handheld Terminals (HHT) work when using Warehouse Control to:

  1. Book in Stock against Purchase Orders that already exist in Khaos Control.
  2. Pick single orders to the point of marking them as Shipment Confirmed.
  3. Pick batches of orders to the point of marking them as Shipment Confirmed.
  4. Scan an item and view all of the locations and quantities in the warehouse for it.
  5. Scan a location and view all of the stock items currently associated with it.
  6. Move stock items between one location and another, either a defined quantity or all the items in the location.

The HHT functionality relies on being able to contact the Khaos Control database via the HHT web service over RF/Wireless network. So, before using HHT, several areas need configuring in Khaos Control.

Warehouse and HHT

When setting up and using the warehouse for HHT there are a couple of points to note:

  1. Any warehouses setup on the system, even if they are in different sites, must not have duplicate locations.
  2. The warehouse capacity level can be 0, which will prevent the system booking in errors with too many items for the location.
  3. Shelf labels can be scanned when booking in items or during packing.
