Batch picking combines the requirements of several orders into one picking run. Quantities are collected by product and subsequently separated into the individual customer orders.[1]
It can reduce repeated journeys when many orders contain the same item. That benefit can be lost if the later sorting step introduces mistakes. Preserve a reliable link between collected units and each customer order, whether through labelled compartments, scanning or a controlled sorting station.
