Abstract
Disclosed is a system and associated methods for optimizing order fulfillment. The system determines the containers in a site with items for a set of received orders, and reserves different slot types of an item cache for each container based on the properties of the contained items or container. The system transfers a set of containers to the item cache by placing each of the set of containers into a slot that is associated with a slot type that matches a slot type reserved for that container. The system replaces a first container from the set of containers upon delivering a second container to the item cache and other containers from the set of containers in the slot type reserved for the second container having items for unfulfilled orders and the first container not having items for unfulfilled orders once the second container is brought to the item cache.
