The present disclosure provides a method of restocking performed by an electronic device, comprising: the method comprises the steps of acquiring a replenishment storage position and a plurality of object attributes of a to-be-replenished object in a source storage area aiming at a target storage area, wherein the source storage area comprises a plurality of replenishment storage positions for providing the to-be-replenished object, screening at least one replenishment storage position from the plurality of replenishment storage positions based on at least one object attribute in the plurality of object attributes as an available replenishment storage position, sorting the available replenishment storage positions based on a plurality of sorting indexes to acquire a sorting result, and determining the target replenishment storage position in the available replenishment storage positions according to a preset rule based on the sorting result so as to execute replenishment operation on the to-be-replenished object in the target storage area.

Fig. 1 schematically illustrates an application scenario 100 in which a restocking method may be applied according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. It should be noted that fig. 1 is only an example of a system architecture to which embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to assist those skilled in the art in understanding the technical content of the present disclosure, but does not mean that embodiments of the present disclosure may not be used in other devices, systems, environments, or scenarios.

As shown in fig. 1, embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to a restocking scenario 100 for warehouse management. In the restocking scene 100, a warehouse may include a holding area 101, a picking area 102. The storage area 101 is an area where articles enter, and the picking area 102 is used for picking articles out of the warehouse. The pick zone 102 includes a bin pick zone 103 and a zero pick zone 104, where bins are all in the bin pick zone 103, bin rules are recorded in the inventory field, and parts are all in the zero pick zone 104, and parts are recorded in the inventory field. There may be both a box and a piece in the storage area 101. When the inventory in the pick-up area 102 is relatively small, for example, lower than the safety inventory, the replenishment operation for replenishing the goods from the other areas such as the storage area 101 to the pick-up area 102 is called a general replenishment service. The sorting area 102 may be replenished with goods from the storage area 101, or the sorting area 104 may be replenished with goods from the bin sorting area 103.

At present, the general replenishment business in the existing warehouse is either completely dependent on the condition of the orders of the warehouse operators on the day or the open day and the inventory condition of the picking area, and the warehouse-moving replenishment operation is manually executed to move the goods to be replenished from other areas to the picking area to complete replenishment. In some advanced warehouses, automation of the restocking method is also achieved by computer assistance, namely, when the inventory of the picking area is smaller than the minimum safety inventory, a general restocking service is triggered, the storage-site commodities in the storage area 101 are sorted in a first-in first-out manner according to the quality guarantee period according to the fixed maximum inventory upper limit of the storage area as the restocking quantity, and the restocking quantity is accumulated until the maximum inventory upper limit is reached so as to determine all the restocking source storage sites.

It should be noted that, for convenience of management, the storage area 101 and the picking area 102 in fig. 1 may be divided into a plurality of storage areas for management. The custody area 101, the picking area 102 may have any number of storage areas, depending on the nature of the warehousing business, and the disclosure is not limited.

Fig. 2 schematically illustrates a flow chart of a restocking method according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

As shown in fig. 2, the method includes operations S210 to S240. Wherein:

in operation S210, a restocking storage location and a plurality of object attributes of an object to be restocked are acquired for a target storage region.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the target storage area may be a storage area requiring replenishment, the target storage area being located in the pick area 102 when replenishing from the storage area 101 to the pick area 102, and the target storage area being located in the zero pick area 104 when replenishing from the bin pick area 103 to the zero pick area 104. The storage areas may be monitored for a predetermined time and a storage area having a storage area inventory less than the safety inventory may be determined as the target storage area.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the source storage may be a storage providing restocking objects to the target storage, including a plurality of restocking stores for providing restocking objects to be restocked, stock amounts of the restocking objects to be restocked to the target storage.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, for the shelf-life commodity, at least one restocking storage position from a plurality of restocking storage positions can be selected as an available restocking storage position according to the shelf-life state of the object to be restocked. At least one restocking storage position which is consistent with the quality guarantee period state of the object to be restocked can be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions and used as an available restocking storage position. And the method can also remove the replenishment storage positions which are not consistent with the quality guarantee period state of the object to be replenished in the plurality of replenishment storage positions to obtain at least one replenishment storage position as the available replenishment storage position.

For example, if the shelf life status of the object to be restocked is "early warning", at least one restocked storage location whose shelf life status is "early warning" may be searched from the plurality of restocked storage locations as the available restocked storage location. And the supplementary goods storage positions with the quality-keeping period state not being early warning in the plurality of supplementary goods storage positions can be removed, so that at least one supplementary goods storage position is obtained and is used as an available supplementary goods storage position. It should be noted that, for the to-be-restocked object whose quality guarantee period state is "normal period", "urgent period", "temporary period", "expiration" or "abnormal", at least one restocking storage position is selected from the plurality of restocking storage positions, and the method of selecting the available restocking storage position may refer to the screening method whose quality guarantee period state is "early warning", which is not described herein again.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, at least one restocking storage position can be selected from a plurality of restocking storage positions according to the grade attribute of the object to be restocked as an available restocking storage position. At least one restocking storage position which is consistent with the grade attribute of the object to be restocked can be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions and used as an available restocking storage position. And the method can also remove the replenishment storage positions which are not consistent with the grade attribute of the object to be replenished in the plurality of replenishment storage positions to obtain at least one replenishment storage position as the available replenishment storage position.

For example, if the grade attribute of the object to be restocked is "good", at least one restocking storage position with the grade attribute of "good" can be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions and used as the available restocking storage position. And the supplementary goods storage positions with the grade attribute not being the grade attribute in the plurality of supplementary goods storage positions can be removed, so that at least one supplementary goods storage position is obtained and is used as the available supplementary goods storage position.

It should be noted that, for the to-be-restocked object with the grade attribute of "defective product", at least one restocking storage position is selected from the plurality of restocking storage positions, and the method of selecting the at least one restocking storage position as the available restocking storage position may refer to the screening method with the grade attribute of "good product" and will not be described herein.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, at least one restocking storage position can be selected from a plurality of restocking storage positions according to a specific box rule of an object to be restocked as an available restocking storage position. At least one restocking storage position which is in accordance with the box specification of the object to be restocked can be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions and used as an available restocking storage position. And the method can also remove the replenishment storage positions which are not in accordance with the box gauge of the object to be replenished in the plurality of replenishment storage positions to obtain at least one replenishment storage position as the available replenishment storage position.

For example, if the box rule of the object to be restocked is "10 pieces/box", at least one restocking storage position whose box rule is "10 pieces/box" may be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions as the available restocking storage position. The replenishment storage sites with the box gauge not being 10 pieces/box in the plurality of replenishment storage sites can be removed, so that at least one replenishment storage site is obtained and is used as an available replenishment storage site.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, at least one restocking storage location from a plurality of restocking storage locations may be selected as an available restocking storage location based on the batch attribute and the batch attribute value range. At least one restocking storage position which is consistent with the batch attribute and the batch attribute value range of the object to be restocked can be searched from the plurality of restocking storage positions and used as the available restocking storage position. And the method can also remove the replenishment storage positions which are not consistent with the batch attribute and the batch attribute value range of the object to be replenished in the plurality of replenishment storage positions to obtain at least one replenishment storage position as the available replenishment storage position.

For example, if the batch attribute of the object to be restocked is "provider a, origin B", at least one restocking storage location having the batch attribute of "provider a, origin B" may be searched from the plurality of restocking storage locations as the available restocking storage location. The replenishment storage sites with batch properties not being 'provider A and origin B' in the plurality of replenishment storage sites can be removed, so that at least one replenishment storage site is obtained and used as the available replenishment storage site.

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, if the inventory of available restocking storage locations is empty, then for the object to be restocked, the entire warehouse is inventory-free and restocking fails.

In operation S240, a target restocking storage location is determined among available restocking storage locations according to a preset rule based on the sorting result so as to perform a restocking operation on the object to be restocked in the target storage region.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a search is performed among the ordered bins acquired based on operation S230 according to the restocking number of the object to be restocked to determine a target restocking bin. And acquiring a first replenishment quantity aiming at the to-be-replenished goods object, executing a data matching strategy of accurate matching, and searching whether a first available replenishment storage position exists in the available replenishment storage positions (the replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished goods object provided by the first available replenishment storage position is equal to the first replenishment quantity) so as to accurately match the replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished goods object. There are two cases:

Case one: in the event that there is a first available restocking storage, the first available restocking storage is determined to be the target restocking storage. For example, the replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished objects is 240, and if the first available replenishment storage location with the replenishment quantity equal to 240 is found out among the plurality of available replenishment storage locations listed in table 1 or table 2, the first available replenishment storage location is directly used to execute the replenishment operation on the to-be-replenished objects in the target storage area.

And a second case: in the case where there is no first available restocking storage location, then the target restocking storage location is determined among the available restocking storage locations according to a preset rule based on the sorting result, and the present disclosure provides the following four search methods, which will be explained separately below.

The first search method is as follows: if the replenishment amounts are ordered from more to less (as shown in table 1), the available replenishment places closest to the replenishment amount of the object to be replenished are sequentially searched downwards, and if the replenishment amounts are ordered from less to more (as shown in table 2), the available replenishment places closest to the replenishment amount of the object to be replenished are sequentially searched upwards, so that the priority emptying of the places and the minimum replenishment times are realized.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, determining a target restocking storage location among available restocking storage locations according to a preset rule based on the sorting result includes: acquiring a first replenishment quantity aiming at a to-be-replenished object; searching whether a first available replenishment storage position exists in the available replenishment storage positions, wherein the replenishment quantity of the object to be replenished provided by the first available replenishment storage position is equal to the first replenishment quantity; searching a plurality of second available restocking positions in the available restocking positions under the condition that the first available restocking positions do not exist, wherein the restocking amount of the object to be restocked provided by each second available restocking position is smaller than the first restocking amount; obtaining the maximum replenishment quantity for a plurality of second available replenishment places with respect to the to-be-replenished object; determining a remaining replenishment quantity for the object to be replenished based on the first replenishment quantity and the maximum replenishment quantity; based on the sorting result, sequentially searching at least one third replenishment storage position in the second available replenishment storage positions until the sum of the accumulation of the replenishment amounts for the objects to be replenished and the remaining replenishment amounts provided by the at least one third replenishment storage position meet a preset threshold; and determining a second available restocking location and at least one third restocking location corresponding to the maximum restocking amount as the target restocking location.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset threshold characterizes a difference between a sum of the accumulation of restocking amounts provided for the object to be restocked and the remaining restocking amounts by the at least one third restocking storage. Based on the preset threshold, a number of third restocking positions may be determined.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, for an object to be restocked, obtaining a first restocking amount includes: aiming at the object to be restocked, acquiring the current inventory of the target storage area; based on the historical sales volume of the object to be restocked, the safety stock and the maximum stock of the target storage area are counted; determining a lower limit value of the replenishment quantity based on the current inventory and the safety inventory; determining an upper limit value of the replenishment quantity based on the maximum inventory and the current inventory; and determining a first replenishment quantity based on the lower limit value of the replenishment quantity and the upper limit value of the replenishment quantity. The first replenishment quantity may be within a range between a lower limit value of the replenishment quantity and an upper limit value of the replenishment quantity, and the floating range may be used to extend to the storage location.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, whether a first available restocking storage position exists in the available restocking storage positions is searched, wherein the restocking amount of the object to be restocked provided by the first available restocking storage position is equal to the first restocking amount. If the first available storage positions do not exist, a plurality of second available replenishment storage positions are searched downwards, and the replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished objects provided by each second available replenishment storage position is smaller than the first replenishment quantity. Determining the residual replenishment quantity based on the maximum replenishment quantity provided by the first and second available replenishment places (the second available place corresponding to the maximum replenishment quantity) and the first replenishment quantity of the object to be replenished, continuing to match downwards according to the residual replenishment quantity until the available replenishment places cannot be found downwards, and executing a second searching method: look up.

For example, the number of the to-be-restocked object is 240, in the plurality of available restocking positions listed in table 1, the plurality of second available restocking positions each having the lower restocking amount than the first restocking amount (240) include the position 1, the position 2, the position 3, the position 4, the position 5, the position 9 and the position 10, the remaining restocking amount is 140 according to the maximum restocking amount of the plurality of second available restocking positions, that is, the restocking amount 100 of the position 1 and the first restocking amount 240, and the actual restocking amount of the to-be-restocked object is 236.3=100.3+23+2+16+16 by searching for at least one third available restocking position among the position 2, the position 3, the position 4, the position 5, the position 9 and the position 10 according to the remaining restocking amount 140 and finally determining the plurality of target restocking positions except the position 1, the position 2, the position 3, the position 4 and the position 5.

The second search method is as follows: if the replenishment amounts are ordered from more to less (as shown in table 1), the replenishment amounts are sequentially searched upwards from the available replenishment places closest to the replenishment amount of the object to be replenished, and if the replenishment amounts are ordered from less to more (as shown in table 2), the replenishment amounts are sequentially searched downwards from the available replenishment places closest to the replenishment amount of the object to be replenished, so as to realize the minimum replenishment times and the minimum dismantling places.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, determining a target restocking storage location among available restocking storage locations according to a preset rule based on the sorting result includes: acquiring a first replenishment quantity aiming at a to-be-replenished object; searching whether a first available replenishment storage position exists in the available replenishment storage positions, wherein the replenishment quantity of the object to be replenished provided by the first available replenishment storage position is equal to the first replenishment quantity; searching a plurality of fourth available restocking positions in the available restocking positions under the condition that the first available restocking positions do not exist, wherein the restocking amount of the object to be restocked provided by each fourth available restocking position is larger than the first restocking amount; obtaining the minimum replenishment quantity for a plurality of fourth available replenishment places with respect to the object to be replenished; and determining a fourth available restocking storage location corresponding to the minimum restocking amount as a target restocking storage location.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the replenishment quantity of the object to be restocked provided by the first available restocking storage is equal to the first replenishment quantity. And the replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished objects provided by each fourth available replenishment storage site is larger than the first replenishment quantity.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, whether a first available restocking storage position exists in the available restocking storage positions is searched, wherein the restocking amount of the object to be restocked provided by the first available restocking storage position is equal to the first restocking amount. If the first available storage position does not exist, searching a first fourth available storage position which is larger than the first replenishment amount upwards in the sorting result, namely one replenishment, minimizing the replenishment times, and finding the closest replenishment storage position. If the fourth available restocking storage position cannot be found upwards, the first fourth available restocking storage position which is larger than the first restocking amount is found downwards.

For example, the replenishment quantity of the object to be replenished is 240, and among the plurality of available replenishment places listed in table 1, a plurality of fourth available replenishment places each having a replenishment quantity greater than the first replenishment quantity (240) include a place 8, a place 6 and a place 7, and the replenishment quantity (260) of the place 8 is the smallest, and is determined as the target replenishment place.

Third kind: and determining a plurality of target replenishment storage positions according to the order of the replenishment quantity from less to more, so as to realize the preferential emptying of the small storage positions and not to perform accurate searching.

For example, as shown in table 1, the plurality of available restocking positions may be determined to include, in order of from less to more restocking amounts, the target restocking positions including position 10, position 9, position 5, position 4, position 3, position 2, and position 1, and the actual restocking amounts of the objects to be restocked are 240.9=1.2+3.4+16.0+20.0+23.2+77.1+100.0.

Fourth kind: according to the order of the quantity of the replenishment goods from more to less, a plurality of target replenishment goods storage positions are determined, and the minimum replenishment times are realized, but the full storage positions are easily split and are not accurately matched.

For example, as shown in table 1, the number of available restocking positions may be determined to be position 7 in order of more restocking amount, and the actual restocking amount of the object to be restocked may be 810.

It should be noted that, according to the above four searching methods, a suitable available replenishment storage location can be found in the sorting results of the available replenishment storage locations, the replenishment quantity is accumulated, the replenishment quantity can take a value as large as possible within the upper limit range, and other storage locations are found again in a circulating manner until the replenishment quantity finds the corresponding storage location.

In the related art, the method for replenishing is not optimized, and most of the solidified articles are replenished from the storage area of the storage location and the information analysis of the quantity of articles in the storage location, and the batch attribute, bin rule, warehouse-in date, grade, priority replenishing source storage area, priority big bin rule, small bin rule, less logic area, proper rounding and the like of the articles on the storage location are not considered, so that the problem of non-optimal replenishment exists. The curing content is too much, and the general replenishment method is not comprehensive. For example: the method is characterized in that the method comprises the steps of looking at the inventory of the whole picking area, supplementing the whole picking area from the whole storage area, and in practice, the situation of supplementing the goods from which storage area to which storage area exists, the storage position sequencing is uniformly performed according to the quality guarantee period first-in first-out, a sequencing method is not given for non-quality guarantee period goods, different methods are not considered for different owners, and the areas which can be supplemented with goods preferentially are not defined. Thereby ignoring other important information. In general, the general replenishment method provided by the related technology has too much solidified content, and the replenishment method is not optimized, flexible and comprehensive enough, so that the method is only suitable for the warehouse and cannot meet and be suitable for the actual conditions of other warehouses.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the defects that the solidification content in the conventional replenishment method in the warehouse is too much, not enough to optimize, not enough to be comprehensive, not enough to refine and the like are overcome, at least one object attribute in a plurality of object attributes is utilized flexibly to screen a plurality of replenishment storage positions for providing the objects to be replenished, a plurality of sorting indexes are utilized to sort the available replenishment storage positions, and finally, the target replenishment storage positions are determined in the sorting result according to the preset rule, so that the problem that the replenishment method is not flexible enough, the problem of low replenishment efficiency in the related art is at least partially solved, and the technical effects that the replenishment method is flexible and changeable and the replenishment efficiency is improved can be realized based on different object attributes and sorting indexes.

The restocking method provided by the present disclosure can be applied to most warehouses. The invention can carry out different replenishment processing aiming at the current warehouse, different owners, different commodities (and three-level classification) and different replenishment target storage areas, and meanwhile, the invention obtains basic safety stock and maximum stock based on average sales data so as to obtain the upper limit of single replenishment, then the invention focuses on researching and realizing the method for forming the optimized replenishment task meeting the replenishment quantity if proper replenishment picking and placing source commodity storage positions are found in the warehouse, and particularly forms a more optimized replenishment new method by flexibly using the sub-methods of commodity shelf life state, commodity grade, appointed bin rule, appointed batch attribute, replenishment source storage area, batch-expiration date, batch-warehouse date, batch-batch number, ambiguity management, commodity shelf life state priority, priority replenishment source storage area, default storage area priority, quantity sorting, bin rule sorting, quantity matching, few logic areas, proper replenishment and the like. The new general method for replenishing goods in the warehouse is more optimized, perfected, refined, efficient, flexible and transparent, and brings greater flexibility and efficiency improvement for warehouse operation and cost benefit improvement.

Fig. 3E schematically illustrates a flow chart of a restocking method according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

In the case where the target restocking storage locations determined among the available restocking storage locations include a plurality of target restocking storage locations according to a preset rule based on the sorting result, as shown in fig. 3E, the restocking method may further include operations S310 to S330 in addition to the foregoing operations S210 to S240. Wherein:

In operation S310, a source storage area corresponding to each of a plurality of target restocking stores is determined.

In operation S320, it is detected whether there is a target storage not meeting the preset condition in the source storage corresponding to each target restocking storage.

In operation S330, if there is a target storage not meeting the preset condition in the source storage corresponding to each target restocking storage, searching for a substitute target storage in the sorting result based on the preset condition to substitute the target storage not meeting the preset condition.

When the target replenishment storage positions determined in the available replenishment storage positions are based on the sorting result according to the preset rule, the first replenishment quantity of the to-be-replenished objects is searched only according to the preset method, and under the condition that the target replenishment storage positions comprise a plurality of target replenishment storage positions, the replacement target storage positions can be searched in the sorting result according to different preset conditions so as to replace the target storage positions which do not meet the preset conditions, and the replenishment method is optimized.

According to the embodiment of the disclosure, considering that the same logic area is managed by the same business executor, if the source storage areas corresponding to the plurality of target replenishment storage locations are all located in the same logic area, the merging can be reduced, the number of business executors is reduced, the replenishment of the object to be replenished can be completed by one business executor, and the replenishment efficiency is improved. Thus, the preset rule may be that the source storage areas corresponding to the plurality of target storage locations are located in the same logical area.

For example, the plurality of target slots includes slot 1, slot 2, slot 3, slot 4, and slot 5. The source storage area corresponding to the storage bit 1 is located in a logic area a, the source storage area corresponding to the storage bit 2 is located in a logic area a, the source storage area corresponding to the storage bit 3 is located in a logic area b, the source storage area corresponding to the storage bit 4 is located in the logic area a, and the source storage area corresponding to the storage bit 5 is located in the logic area a. And searching for a substitute target storage bit (the corresponding source storage region is a) in the sequencing result based on a preset condition if the source storage region b corresponding to the storage bit 3 and the source storage regions a corresponding to the other four storage bits are not in the same logic region so as to substitute the target storage bit 3, thereby achieving the effect of less logic regions. The specific searching method is as described above and will not be described here again.

Considering that there may be an insufficient storage in the plurality of target storage, the insufficient target storage needs to be concentrated in order to achieve the effect of reducing storage. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be that the plurality of target slots are not full slots. At this time, the above specific batch ordering method is reserved, and the same-storage substitution is performed in other negligible ways, so as to achieve the effect of less storage.

When the first replenishment quantity of the object to be replenished is within the range of the lower limit value of the replenishment quantity and the upper limit value of the replenishment quantity, and the sum of the accumulated replenishment quantities of the plurality of target storage locations is not the whole storage location or is not an integer, the large value can be taken out within the upper limit value range, the whole storage location can be taken in, and the whole storage location can be taken in appropriately. For example, the rounding is performed by a maximum bin integer multiple, and the rounding is performed by a minimum bin integer multiple.

For example, according to the first search method, the determined target restocking storage locations obtain a final restocking amount of 236.3, and the plurality of target storage locations include storage location 1, storage location 2, storage location 3, storage location 4, and storage location 5, where the first restocking amount of the object to be restocked is [ 80, 240 ]. The storage position 1 can provide 100.0 (storage position), the storage position 2 can provide 77.1 (non-integer), the storage position 3 can provide 23.2 (non-integer), the storage position 4 can provide 20.0 (integer), and the storage position 5 can provide 16.0 (integer), according to the sequencing (from big to small) result of the target storage positions. Then a maximum value close to 240 may be taken within the first replenishment quantity 80, 240.

According to the goods supplementing method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, under the condition that a plurality of target storage positions are determined, based on the preset condition, the replacement target storage positions are searched in the sequencing result so as to replace the target storage positions which do not meet the preset condition, a plurality of target storage positions of the objects to be supplemented are provided for the target storage areas in an optimized mode, goods supplementing efficiency is improved, and goods supplementing cost is reduced.

Based on the same inventive concept, the present disclosure provides a restocking system executed by an electronic device for executing the above-described restocking method.
