Abstract
Order picking is a warehousing activity that is concerned with the retrieval of products from storage locations to meet customer demands. In this paper, we provide insights into the interactions between layout, routing and storage assignment, with an emphasis on the effectiveness of various storage assignment methods. To this end, we performed an extensive simulation study. It appears that a selection of appropriate storage assignment policies is possible based only on pick list sizes, so without considering the actual layout of the area.
