Locations Setup - Implementation Alert
The warehouse layout and location label sequence have an impact on the system directed pick path.
Set Up Many Locations of the Same Type (Continued)
If you perform a batch pick for the single order SO1, the pick flow path follows the location alpha-numeric sequence.
Note in Layout 1, there is a significant travel time from Location C to Location D. To help reduce this travel time, you can re-label or re-layout the warehouse to Layout 2. This is also possible by assigning a travel sequence number to each location. Reference the discussion on Batch Picking for more information on travel sequence.
The goal within the warehouse is to achieve a shorter travel distance or shorter pick path.
