Logistics

Putaway

Movement and storage of received goods from inbound staging to their assigned inventory locations.

Examples

  1. 01Putaway of an incoming truck of 26 pallets takes 3 hours, with each pallet scanned to its assigned rack location.
  2. 02The weekly warehouse review checks putaway time and putaway errors by shift, and the night shift leaves twice as many pallets in the aisles.
  3. 03Directed putaway from the warehouse system cuts putaway time by a third and reduces lost pallets.
