Abstract
Attribute-based fulfillment operations may comprise various stations and processes between inbound receive and outbound transfer that may decant, count, sort, pick, pack, and ship items based on various attributes. In order to enable such operations, accurate and reliable item counts within the system are generated and maintained at least partially automatically based on item weights. In addition, ordered or outbound items may be initially automatically sorted based on their packing types to facilitate automated packing processes, and the packages may be subsequently automatically sorted for outbound transfer based on their destinations.
