Start of the Workflow/Process.

Fetch the specific Order entry from the Order Data Model to begin the picking process.

Retrieve all associated items/products linked to the retrieved Order entry.

Change the status of the Order entry to 'In Progress' to prevent duplicate picking.

Create a task for the Warehouse Operator to physically collect the items.

Update the 'Quantity Picked' field in the Order Line Items data model as items are scanned.

Subtract 'Quantity Picked' from 'Ordered Quantity' to check for discrepancies.

Aggregate the weight property of all picked items to ensure it fits in the assigned shipping box.

If picked quantity does not match ordered quantity, update the Order entry with a 'Discrepancy' flag.

Create a task for the QC Manager if a discrepancy or damaged item is detected.

Update the Order entry status to 'Picked' once all line items are accounted for.

Generate a new entry in the Packing Slips data model populated with order details.

Create a task for the Packing Station user to wrap and box the items.

Send an email to the customer's email address in the Order entry informing them that their order is being packed.

Final status update for the Order entry once packing is complete.

Create a report summarizing total orders picked, time taken, and error rates for the shift.
