Abstract
A system includes one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform: selecting, by a greedy tote reduction algorithm within an infeasible totes loop, items that have a highest volume restriction and a highest weight restriction for each of a plurality of respective totes; iteratively executing a swap of the items; iteratively searching for candidate solutions until a solution of picklists for the plurality of respective totes containing the items, as swapped, is found; executing a minimum trolley loop algorithm on the solution of picklists to create combined picklists; and displaying to a picker on an interface of a computing device, turn-by-turn directions within a pick walk for the combined picklists. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.
