1740 days confidence: picking inventory
Explanation:
"The separation of reserve and picking inventory may be vertical, eg pick from racking at ground-floor level with reserve stock on the higher racking levels, or horizontal, with reserve stock in one area and picking in another. In the latter instance it is fairly common for picking activities to be conducted at multiple levels using mezzanine floors, so as to use the full height of the building." (The handbook of logistics and distribution management By Alan Rushton, Phil Croucher, Peter Baker)
Example sentence(s):- The separation of reserve and picking inventory may be vertical, eg pick from racking at ground-floor level with reserve stock on the higher racking levels, or horizontal, with reserve stock in one area and picking in another.
