The Sterling Warehouse Management System supports the following algorithms, which you can use to determine pick locations for Least Number of Trips and Pick-To-Clean optimizations:
If the demand is for 150 units and if you configure "Do not break pallets" split constraint, the inventory picture is:
Location | Pallet Identifier | LPN Quantity |
---|---|---|
L1 | P1 | 5 |
L1 | P2 | 10 |
L2 | P3 | 15 |
L2 | P4 | 20 |
L3 | P5 | 40 |
L3 | P6 | 40 |
L4 | P7 | 80 |
L4 | P8 | 80 |
L5 | P9 | 80 |
L5 | P10 | 140 |
If the demand is for 120 units and if you configure "Do not break pallets" split constraint, the inventory picture is:
Location | Pallet Identifier | LPN Quantity |
---|---|---|
L1 | P1 | 60 |
L1 | P2 | 60 |
L2 | P3 | 60 |
L2 | P4 | 80 |
