In some implementations, a warehouse management system is used. An order manager receives an order requiring an item to be moved to a first physical location. Data of the order is stored. The data for the order is accessed. A target item matching the required item to be moved is identified. Data representing a logical location of a target item is accessed. The workload manager identifies based on the data representing the logical location of the target item one or more tasks that are configured to move the target item to the first location. The tasks can be performed to move the target items to the first location.

Computer storage system

For an enterprise system in which physical items are stored in physical container and in which physical container are stored in other physical containers, a data system has data records identifying logical items and logical containers that correspond to the physical items and physical containers, the data records further reflecting the storage of physical items and physical containers with other physical containers. Some of the items are identified as as high-priority items. Containers to hold the high-priority items in transit are identified. Excess capacity in the containers is identified. Low-priority items to be sent are identified. The high-priority items and the low-priority items are aggregated into a list of items-to-be-moved. A list of tasks includes instructions to move the items-to-be-moved from their respective starting logical locations to the containers is made and distributed.
