Created by ChecklistGuro (https://checklistguro.com)

[ ] Fetch Pending Orders: Retrieve all orders from the Order Data Model that are in 'Ready for Picking' status.
[ ] Calculate Total Line Items: Sum the total number of individual items across all retrieved pending orders to determine wave size.
[ ] Get Warehouse Zone Map: Retrieve location data for all active warehouse zones to optimize picking routes.
[ ] Determine Wave Density: Calculate the ratio of items to zones to determine if the wave should be split into smaller sub-waves.
[ ] Create Picking Wave: Create a new record in the 'Picking Wave' data model containing the wave ID, timestamp, and total item count.
[ ] Update Order Status: Update the status of all selected orders from 'Ready for Picking' to 'Allocated to Wave'.
[ ] Assign Wave to Picker: Create a task for a Warehouse Operator to begin the physical picking process for the specific Wave ID.
[ ] Generate Picking Checklist: Create a task for the Quality Control team to verify items once the wave is completed.
[ ] Create Picking List Entry: For every item in the wave, create a line entry in the 'Picking List' data model linked to the current Wave ID.
[ ] Execute Zone Picking Task: Assign sub-tasks to specific zone pickers based on the calculated wave density.
[ ] Update Bin Inventory: Decrement the 'Available Quantity' in the Inventory Data Model as items are picked.
[ ] Notify Warehouse Manager: Send an email notification to the manager once a high-volume wave has been successfully initiated.
[ ] Generate Wave Efficiency Report: Create a report comparing the estimated picking time vs. actual time taken for the completed wave.
[ ] Clear Completed Wave Data: Remove temporary 'In-Progress' wave identifiers from the active queue once the wave is archived.
[ ] Alert Picker of New Wave: Send an SMS alert to the handheld device of the assigned picker to signal a new wave is ready.
