TOT follows the random stock keeping approach. Stock is stored in any location provided there is sufficient space.
In order to efficiently follow the principle, having knowledge of whether storage bays are empty or not is crucial.
Strokeone provides the capability to record a bay's empty status.
Best working practice is to populate this - especially for ground level bays which have the greatest activity
Note: For future functionality, this location status should be tied to system check. If there are objects [SKU, Job, Fulfilment, PO Delivery]s in a location, then set the field as not empty, else empty This could be scheduled to run frequently for all locations. An alternate is to have this transaction based. If an object [SKU, Job, Fulfilment, PO Delivery] is placed in a location, clear the empty flag; If removed from location, check to see if any other objects associated - if none, mark as empty.
