Type: Setting
Description: The RDPWST setting controls the order in which moves appear in the ROAD POW (Control > Open Road POW) based on type of block. Moves are first sorted by block, then by time within each block. Receivals are sorted by 'last move time' and deliveries by 'planned by user time'. To change this setting, see Change XPS settings with the SPARCS settings.txt file.
Default: RD TQ GQ BD XG YD YY where:
RD – Receive Delivery block. This is used to describe sorting of moves for given truck visit, the variants include:
RD – Receivals listed before delivery. Rehandles/shifts listed before the delivery.
DR – Delivery listed before receivals. Rehandles/shifts listed before the delivery.
RDS – Receivals listed before delivery. Rehandles/shifts listed after the delivery.
DRS – Deliveries listed before receivals. Rehandles/shifts listed after the delivery.
TQ – Truck Queue block
GQ – Grid Queue block
BD – Callup board block
XG – Exchange Grid block
YD – Moves-in progress block
YY – Any block that does not fit into the above categories
The user can use the default settings as in the "SPARCS Settings" Available window or change it to suit the requirement.
For instance, if you want all the containers with special stow code 'ACS' to be listed before the other blocks, follow the order mentioned below in "SPARCS Settings" Available window in XPS:
SPCD ACS RD TQ GQ BD XG YD YY
SPCD – Special Stow Code
To replace RD with the variant, for example DRS, update the above example as follows:
SPCD ACS DRS TQ GQ BD XG YD YY
To rename any of the RDPWST setting attributes by replacing them with a single or double characters, for example BD to B, GQ to Q and ACS to CS follow the below example:
XG SPCD ACS CS DRS TQ Q GQ BD B YD P YY
To reverse the sort order, include the symbol ‘>’ at the end, for example:
XG SPCD ACS CS DRS TQ Q GQ BD B YD P YY >
For multiple receivals or deliveries, the order of sorting is based on the settings, TKPSRO and TKPSDO.
