Lagerfüllung/Füllstand in Lagern


Explanation:
Offensichtlich bezieht sich der Begriff auf den Bereich "Lagerhaltung" und oder "Lagerlogistik". Wie die beiden englischen Sites zeigen, versteht man darunter den Füllungsgrad des örtlichen Lagers von Zwischenhändlern.Die Verbesserung dieses "Lagerfüllstands" ist wohl das Ziel der Abteilung, um die es geht, denn "je besser der jeweilige "Lagerfüllstand", desto weniger Engpässe bei der Lieferung.

Auch für Fertigungsbetriebe, die chargenweise produzie-ren oder saisonorientierte Produkte erzeugen, stellt eineigenes Lager einen relativ hohen Kostenfaktor dar, weildie durchschnittliche Lagerfüllung hier niedrig ist.

\"Lagerauslastung\" ist aber noch ein besserer Begriff, der allgemein verwendet wird.

fill rate
Erfüllungsrate


Explanation:
There are many definitions for fill rate, depending on whether it is manufacturing (make-to-stock), warehousing (order picking), or the shelves in a supermarket (shelf fill rate).

IMO the following definition fits your case best.

Fill rate:
Sales order processing measurement that quantifies the ability to fill orders. There are various ways of measuring fill rate.
Line fill compares the number of line items shipped complete to the total number of lines ordered (95 line items shipped complete out of 100 lines ordered would result in a 95% line fill rate).
Order fill compares the number of orders shipped complete to the total number of orders shipped.
(Ref 1)

Anteil der abgeschlossenen Aufträge (Erfüllungsrate)
(Ref 2)
