# Tense Flow (Flux tendu)
## Overview
Tense Flow (FR : *flux tendu*) enables picking directly from one or more source supports - typically to prepare an outbound order **straight from reception** without first putting the stock away. The stock never hits a "normal" storage location : it is replenished to a dedicated buffer (FR : *poumon PREPARATION*) and consumed from there virtually.
The flow combines:
1. A **tense-flow element** + an associated **buffer stage** (typically named `PREPARATION`).
2. A **replenishment task** from the source location(s) to the buffer, triggered at order release.
3. **Virtual picking** on the RF terminal - the operator scans the source support + the newly created client container and declares the picked quantity.
4. A closing step that transfers the client containers to the shipping buffer.
## EasyS Configuration
1. Add a **Tense Flow** element + an associated **buffer** (e.g. `PREPARATION`).
2. Associate the tense-flow element to an aisle (`Count`, `Load`, `Pick`, `Put`, `Unload`).
3. Associate the tense-flow element to the buffer as a `Delivery Stage`.
4. Configure the source locations (buffers and racks) with the option **"Allow origin of replenishement of tense flow"** set to true, otherwise the replenishment task generated at "Lancer en flux tendu" will find no candidate origins.
> ⚠️ Tense Flow always creates a replenishment task *towards the buffer first* - the source locations must be eligible as tense-flow origins, not only as normal-flow origins.
## Functional Flow
### 1. Launch in tense flow (SmartUI)
On a released outbound order, click **"Lancer en flux tendu"**. The order transitions to **"Assigned"** and a replenishment task to the `PREPARATION` buffer is created automatically.
### 2. Execute the replenishment (RFT)
RFT menu : **Tâches → Tâches à flux tendu**. Execute the task to move stock from the source location to the buffer.
### 3. Virtual picking (RFT)
RFT menu : **Ordres de sortie → Picking virtuel**.
1. Scan the **source support** (the pallet / container now at the buffer).
2. Create a **new client container** - use the **"Générer SSCC"** button to assign a fresh SSCC.
3. Scan the new container or the destination location.
4. Enter the item + picked quantity (and any logistic attributes).
The system then offers to put the remaining stock away using the standard putaway strategies.
### 4. End of tense flow
Once all the client containers are filled, transfer them to the `EXPEDITION` buffer (the task is created automatically), then continue the order normally (truck loading, prepackaging, or transfer to the shipping dock).
## Common Errors
**"Lancer en flux tendu" creates no replenishment task** : either the outbound order is not released yet, or the source locations are not marked as `Allow origin of replenishement of tense flow`. Tense Flow replenishment uses a separate eligibility flag from the standard replenishment - enable it on the candidate origins.
**Virtual picking screen rejects the source scan** : the stock is not on the `PREPARATION` buffer yet - the replenishment task must be executed first.
**Remaining stock is not proposed for putaway** : the tense-flow element is not associated to the buffer as a `Delivery Stage` - re-check EasyS step 3.
