A pick list is the list of parts a build needs from your shelves: what to pull, how much, and where it is. PartsBox generates it from the build, so whoever assembles the board works from an accurate list instead of reading the BOM by hand.
Each line shows the part, the quantity to pull, and its storage location, along with the board designators — R1, R4, C7 — the pull is for. With lot control, the list resolves further, to the specific lot to take from each location, in the draw order you chose: first in first out, largest lot first, or an order you set by hand (see the advanced build system). The quantities already include attrition overhead, so the floor pulls enough to finish the run.
Group the list to match how you pick: all parts in one table, grouped by location so you walk the shelves once, or grouped by part. Mark each line as you pull it, or leave it unmarked and work down the printed sheet. Export the list to PDF or CSV with table export to print it or hand it off.
A multi-stage build prints a pick list for each stage, listing only the parts that stage places — so the person doing through-hole assembly is not handed the SMD reels. To pull the parts ahead of the run and set them aside as a kit, see kitting.
Pick lists are part of every build, so they are in every plan, including the free Maker plan. With lot control, on the Control plan, the pick list resolves down to the exact lots to pull.
