Hello Eric,
The picking process is done in a warehouse using bar code scanning devices,  
we have bar coding on the pick lists and the product packaging has bar code  
labelling to show the item number and where appropriate a bar coded serial  
number.
The pickers in the warehouse do the physical pick and confirm what they  have 
picked using the scanning devices.
The scanning devices are wireless they transmit the pick list lines plus  the 
serial numbers of picked inventory, these are written to our own 'non  
MAPICS' files.
The U-job reads the pick list lines in the 'non Mapics' files and builds  the 
Offline Ship records, the Offline Ship process is then called, this builds  
the shipment, then a third stage runs to look for serial numbers, if  there are 
serial numbers they are added to the 'standards Mapics' serial number  file.
 
Regards
Bob

Bob,
Are you using the Lot Number as your serial number or some  other process?
