Dock-to-Stock Time

Dock-to-Stock Time

Time taken from receiving goods to ready-for-pick.

Time taken from receiving goods to ready-for-pick.

Dock-to-stock time measures how quickly incoming goods are processed, verified, and stored in the correct bin locations. Shorter times improve inventory availability and reduce backorders. For instance, if a pallet is received at 10:00 AM and scanned into bin locations by 10:45 AM, the dock-to-stock time is 45 minutes.
