---|---|---|
•The efficiency of optimal order picking routes can be severely hampered by product stockouts in the piece picking area.•Time pressure forces warehouses to combine order picking and replenishments of the piece picking area.•Prioritizing the product replenishments based on impending stockouts can substantially reduce these.•A simple priority rule is already quite effective, shown by both simulation and practical implementation in a warehouse.•This simple priority rule can be further refined making use of all the short-term demand information available. |
