Putaway Logic

ShipHawk WMS’s putaway logic is based on the concept of “Inbound Groups” of bins.

Once all Inbound Groups are defined for physical bins, each item is assigned a Rule Set for putaway. That Rule Set will be used to direct the movement or putaway of that item from any bin (including receiving docks) to any other bin. ShipHawk WMS will retrieve this Rule Set and search, in sequenced order, across the bins for each Inbound Group defined for that Rule Set, seeking suitable bins for placement of the inventory. Each Inbound Group also has a set of related secondary rules as well, to control merging options and other best practice putaway processes.
