Slotting

Slotting, an integrated module of RedPrairie’s Warehouse Management and Workforce Management suites, optimizes the placement of items across pick faces using discrete standards for each pick task. This provides a true picture of the efficiency of SKU slotting not found in other slotting applications. The slotting algorithm also incorporates a wide selection of user-definable criteria, including product pick velocity, product family groups, and weight and size considerations, as well as facility operational standards, ergonomics, and special storage requirements, such as for hazardous materials. The resulting slotting plan is integrated into facility operations, such as put-away and replenishment, making re-slotting seamless and minimizing disruption.
