Is there a built-in way to automatically generate Pick Lists for Customer Orders once everything is in stock (accounting for the order's backorder option), rather than manually running the 'Create Pick Lists for Customer Orders' page each time?

Answer

There's no dedicated automatic-trigger setting for this in the standard client, but you can achieve it with a Scheduled Database Task: configure one to run on your desired interval and call the 'Create Consolidated Pick List for Customer Order' API function. That function only creates pick lists for orders that are actually ready (respecting backorder settings), so scheduling it to run periodically effectively automates pick list generation without needing a custom workflow.
