The present disclosure provides a computerized method for assigning items to pickers including: determining a priority of an ordered item; inserting the item into an ordered data structure based on the priority of the item; iteratively, for items in the ordered data structure: determining an item physical location corresponding to a first unassigned item in the ordered data structure; determining a plurality of picker physical locations corresponding to locations of user devices of pickers; calculating a plurality of distances between the item physical location and picker physical locations among the plurality of picker physical locations; assigning the first unassigned item by: identifying a closest picker corresponding to a shortest distance of the plurality of distances; selecting the identified picker; correlating the first unassigned item with the selected picker in a data structure; and sending information of the item and physical location to the user device of the picker.

Systems and computerized methods for optimizing item retrieval allocation efficiencies

The systems and methods for receiving a user input for a combination of a plurality of object pointers, wherein the object pointers are associated with a corresponding plurality of items located within a first area; retrieving one or more system parameters comprising a current location and a current container; transmitting a request for the combination of the plurality of object pointers, the request comprising the one or more system parameters; receiving the combination of the plurality of object pointers in response to the request; displaying locations of the plurality of items relative to the current location; and processing the plurality of items until a threshold capacity of the current container is reached by receiving input data corresponding to the plurality of object pointers.

Systems and methods for on-demand decomposition of orders and urgency-based identification of item combination for fulfillment

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for monitoring inventory transfer in real-time, comprising a memory storing instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to receive a tote identifier associated with a tote configured to store one or more products and receive a container identifier associated with a container configured to store the tote. The processor is configured to receive, from a user device in the first fulfillment center, a code associated with a vehicle for transferring the container from a first to a second fulfillment center, receive, from a user device in the second fulfillment center, the code associated with the vehicle, receive, from the user device in the second fulfillment center, at least one of the container identifier or the tote identifier, and validate the transfer of the first product, based on the code and at least one of the container identifier or the tote identifier.

Systems and methods for electronic monitoring of inventory transfer

The present disclosure provides an electronic apparatus for inventory management and an operation method thereof. The operation method includes receiving a consolidation task request, identifying, in response to the received consolidation task request, information on at least one item based on an item space usage rate for each zone calculated in real time, wherein the at least one item is a target on which a picking task is to be performed, transmitting the information on the at least one item to a terminal, receiving a picking task result of the at least one item from the terminal, and updating information on inventory based on the picking task result.
