There are at least two and sometimes three transfer movements in typical warehouse. The merchandise is initially moved from the receiving area to a storage location. This movement is typically handled by lift truck when pallets or slip-sheets are used or by other mechanical means for other types of unit loads. A second internal movement may be required prior to order assembly, depending upon warehouse operating procedures. When unit loads have to be broken down for order selection, they are usually transferred from storage to an order selection or picking area. When products are large or bulky, such as appliances, this intermediate movement to a picking area may not be necessary. Such product is often selected from the storage area and moved directly to the shipment staging area. The staging area is adjacent to the shipping dock. In order selection warehouses, the assembled customer order is transferred from the selection area to the shipping staging area. Characteristically, in-storage handling involves lower volume movements than receiving, but still relatively similar products.Order selection is one of the major handling activities within warehouses. The selection process requires that materials, parts, and products be grouped to facilitate order assembly. It is typical for one area of a warehouse to be designated as a selection or picking area to assemble orders. For each order, the combination of products must be selected and packaged to meet specific customer order requirements.
