The latest version of Accellos One Warehouse has significantly enhanced slotting capabilities, including integration to Accellos One Slot!

Monday, August 23, 2010

If your warehouse is like most in the distribution world, your largest operating expense is labor.  And of these labor costs, your biggest expense is picking.  An incremental improvement in the picking process can lead to thousands of dollars on your bottom line.
The Accellos One Warehouse slotting functionality gives you the ability to
optimize both the location of your products in the warehouse and the distance that your warehouse workers have to travel to pick you high velocity items.  The incremental Slotting report in Accellos One Warehouse identifies "pairs" that can be "swapped" to improve picking productivity (by locating high velocity items in the optimal pick bins).  The dispatcher can use this report to issue re-slotting requests which populate a new Directed Move task queue.
Accellos One Slot is an affordable suite of tools designed to maximize the
overall performance of your warehouse.  It helps to answer the questions of how much, how fast, where, when and why you require facilities and staff in the warehouse.  The integrated solution automatically populates the Accellos One Warehouse Directed Move task queue with slotting requests.  The net result is higher productivity, better utilization of available rack space and increased throughput in your warehouse.
Along with the Accellos One Slot product and Impact WMS Solutions process engineering team we can help you improve your overall inventory placement for maximized space and productivity.
