Description

Method and device for storing commodities
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of computer technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for storing a commodity, an electronic device, and a computer-readable medium.
Background
Among warehouses of electronic commerce companies, a stereoscopic warehouse is one of the main storage devices. In order to improve the warehouse-out efficiency and space utilization rate, a partial zero-picking area is added to the storage area for picking personnel to pick the goods in the vertical warehouse. The zero picking area is generally provided with a plurality of layers, each layer is provided with a plurality of storage positions, each storage position is provided with a tray for storing picked commodities, and each picking person is responsible for the plurality of layers. The distribution of inventory in the zero pick zone has a large impact on the picking efficiency of the picker. Currently, a more stock distribution strategy is adopted to place hot-sold goods on the same layer. Meanwhile, each commodity is placed as little as possible, so that the categories of commodities in the zero picking area are rich.
In the process of implementing the invention, the inventor finds that at least the following problems exist in the prior art:
the requirement on the timeliness rate of replenishment is high. The number of the storage positions in the zero picking area is preferred, and in order to increase the number of the commodity types in the zero picking area, the number of trays for each commodity in the zero picking area is reduced as much as possible. If the goods are not supplemented in time, the picking personnel can not pick the needed goods.
The storage space ratio is unreasonable. The turnover speed of hot-sold commodities is high, and the turnover speed of commodities with low sales volume is low. The total number of reserves available for a variety of goods with different sales volumes is limited. At present, partial commodities often occupy more storage positions, but the quantity of the commodities discharged from the warehouse is less, and partial hot-sold commodities occupy less storage positions, so that replenishment and moving operations are frequently carried out.

Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various details of embodiments of the invention are included to assist understanding, and which are to be considered as merely exemplary. Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Also, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of main steps of a method for storing commodities according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1:
step S101 represents determining a predicted sales volume of the commodity; the purpose of this step is to configure the bin based on the predicted sales of the good. Wherein determining the predicted sales volume of the good comprises: obtaining the historical sales volume of the commodity in T days, wherein the historical sales volume of the commodity in the ith day in the T days is siThe predicted sales amount S of the commodity is expressed by the following formula,
Figure BDA0001768998700000051
wherein, wiWeight the historical sales for the i-th day of the good. Weight w of historical sales of the good on day i within the T daysiA weight w less than the historical sales of the good on day i +1 within the T daysi+1
Further, a weight w of historical sales for the i-th day of the goodiIs equal to
Figure BDA0001768998700000061
For example, if the historical sales of the product for 10 days in 8 month 1 to 10 days are obtained, the weight for 8 month 1 is 1/55, and the weight for 8 month 10 is 10/55.
Step S102 represents calculating an upper limit P of the number of pallets of the product from the predicted sales amount S of the product; the purpose of this step is to predict how many trays the goods can be placed on at most.
Calculating the upper limit P of the number of pallets of the commodity according to the predicted sales amount S of the commodity comprises:
wherein t is the number of safe stock days of the goods, and ms is the upper limit of the number of the goods placed on each tray. If P is not an integer, rounding up or down can be performed according to requirements.
Step S103 represents that the tray number of the commodity is determined according to the current available stock position number and the upper limit of the tray number of the commodity; the purpose of this step is to determine how many trays of merchandise the number of currently available bins can meet. Wherein the available storage position refers to a storage position where the tray can be placed. The trays may be placed at an upper limit on the number of trays per item, but the total number cannot exceed the number of available bins.
Before determining the number of trays of the goods according to the number of currently available slots and the upper limit of the number of trays of the goods, the method further comprises: according to the predicted sales volume of the commodity and the quotientSorting the commodities from high to low according to one or more of the upper limit of the number of trays of commodities, the number of commodities associated with the commodities and the click rate of the commodities, wherein the upper limit of the number of trays of the sorted commodities is Lmax1,Lmax2,Lmax3,…,LmaxkWherein k is the number of the sorted commodities;
the number of trays L of the sorted goods1,L2,L3,…,LkSatisfy the following relationship
Figure BDA0001768998700000063
Wherein i is 1,2,3, …, k, and N is the number of currently available storage bits.
The commodity association means that when more than two commodities appear in the same order, the commodities in the order are associated, and the association degree between the commodities can be measured by analyzing a large number of orders and using the association degree, for example, the association degree between the commodities can be calculated by using an FP-Growth method (an algorithm using a data structure of a Frequent Pattern Tree).
For example, the upper limit of the number of trays for the article a is 50, the upper limit of the number of trays for the article B is 40, the upper limit of the number of trays for the article C is 60, the rank according to the click amount of the article is ABC order from high to low, but the number of currently available slots is 80. So that trays of 50 articles a and 30 articles B can be selected to be placed in the available bin, or trays of 30 articles a, 30 articles B and 20 articles C can be selected.
Another embodiment of the present invention is that, according to the sorting result of the commodities, the commodity with the highest sorting is selected, if the upper limit of the number of trays of the commodity is less than the current available stock space number, the relevant commodities having a higher association degree than the preset lowest association degree threshold and a higher sales amount than the preset lowest sales amount threshold are queried, and the relevant commodities are sorted from high to low according to one or more of the predicted sales amount of the relevant commodities, the upper limit of the number of trays of the relevant commodities, the click amount of the relevant commodities, and the like, and then the number of trays of the relevant commodities is determined according to the number of remaining current available stock spaces except the upper limit of the number of trays of the commodity and the upper limit of the number of trays of the relevant commodities.
Step S104 represents allocating a bin to the tray of the product according to the number of trays of the product. After the number of trays of merchandise is determined, a bin may be assigned. Furthermore, a weight value can be preset for the storage position, and the storage position is distributed to the commodity tray according to the weight value. For example, the bin with the highest weight value may be assigned to the tray of the item with the highest sales volume. One embodiment of the present invention allocates one of the levels in the logical area for the tray of the commodity with the highest sales volume, allocates the level of the adjacent level for the redundant tray if the level cannot accommodate all the trays, and allocates the redundant available level for the tray of the commodity with higher association degree with the commodity if the level has redundant available level.
