# Fulfillment Hub USA – How to Multi Item Batch (MIB) Pick in ShipHero

The **Multi-Item Batch (MIB)** function in ShipHero lets you pick **multiple orders at once**, placing each order’s items directly into its own **tote**.

This workflow:

- Keeps orders separated while you pick
- Reduces time spent sorting items before packing
- Minimizes the risk of mixing products between orders

---

#### 1. Starting a Multi-Item Batch

1. Log in to the **ShipHero Mobile App**.
2. From the dashboard, tap **Multi Item Batch**.
   
     - Or open the **Hamburger menu (☰)** → **Orders** → **Multi Item Batch Picking**.

#### 2. Choose the Number of Totes (Orders)

Each **tote** represents **one order** in the batch.

1. On the MIB screen, select how many totes you want to use.
   
     - Example: choosing **25 totes** tells ShipHero you want to pick **25 orders** in this batch.
2. ShipHero will then **generate the batch** and build the picklist based on those orders.

#### 3. Picking Items into Totes

ShipHero will guide you through each location and SKU needed for the batch.

For each pick:

1. Go to the **location** shown on the screen.
2. **Scan the item**.
3. **Scan a tote**.
4. Place the item in that tote.
5. **Scan the tote again** to confirm placement.

As you continue:

- If the order for that tote needs another item, the app will prompt you to put that new item into the **same tote**.
- If the item belongs to a **new order**, ShipHero will ask you to scan a **tote that isn’t yet in use**.

If something goes wrong:

- Scanning a **tote already in use** when a new tote is required will trigger an **error message**.
- Scanning the **wrong item** will also show an error pop-up.

#### 4. Reporting Issues & Tracking Progress

If you run into a problem (e.g., the system shows quantity at a location, but the bin is empty):

1. Tap the **item** on the pick screen.
2. Select **Report Issue** to log the problem for inventory review.

Pickers can also track their overall progress:

- Tap **Progress** in the upper-right of the picklist.
- This view shows:
  
    - How many **orders** are in the batch
    - Which **totes** are currently in use
    - How many **items** are left to pick

#### 5. Completing the Batch & Default Settings

When all items in the batch are picked:

1. Tap **Complete** to finish the batch.
2. You can immediately start a **new batch** by choosing a new number of totes.

You can also configure a **default batch size**:

- Go to **My Account \> Settings \> App Settings**.
- Set a default quantity for **Multi Item Batch** so pickers don’t need to choose it every time.

If MIB feels slow:

- Check the **Replenishment Report** to be sure inventory is in **pickable locations**; low or missing stock in forward pick bins can slow down the process.
- For more details, refer to the **Replenishment** documentation in ShipHero.
