Overview
The Skublox Hub App allows you to manage and assign slot capacities. You can configure the volume of the slots and sort orders with multiple items or find a better fit for bigger-sized items.
When setting a capacity, you can choose between the following volume units:
- Cubic inches
- Cubic feet
- Cubic centimeters
- Liters
Based on the capacity, Skublox will try to find the most suitable slot for a given order without disrupting your sorting flow.
When assembling your wall, we recommend assigning smaller slots with smaller capacities at the top, as lighter items are easier to lift.
Manage capacities
Volume and Capacities support must be enabled for this workflow! To enable the setting, navigate to Preferences > Consider product dimensions when assigning slots. (Show me where!)
To manage slot capacities, open your wall > Click on the Actions icon > Select Manage Capacities from the drop-down menu.
- To create a new capacity, click on the Add new capacity button. Specify the capacity name, the volume, and the volume unit.
- To edit a capacity, click on the vertical ellipsis icon next to it and select Edit. You can change the capacity name, the volume, and the volume unit.
- To delete a capacity, click on the vertical ellipsis icon next to it and select Delete.
Assign capacity to slots
To assign slot capacities, open your wall > Click on the Actions icon > Select Assign capacity to slots from the drop-down menu. Note that all modifications take effect immediately and neither require a wall restart nor lead to any downtime.
- To assign a new capacity, select one or more slots and assign a capacity.
- To delete an assigned capacity, select the slot(s) and click the Reset button.
There might be times when an assigned slot is inconvenient and the slot size is too small for a product. In these cases, you can use the Swap Slots feature during the sorting process. Read more about the feature in the Swap Slots article.
