Putaway Strategy

Rules that guide how and where items are stored.

A putaway strategy defines how storage decisions are made—such as by product velocity (fast/slow movers), zone preference, or item dimensions. Common strategies include fixed location (assigned bins), dynamic location (first available space), and class-based (storing similar SKUs together). For instance, a fast-moving item might be slotted near the packing area, while seasonal stock goes to long-term storage zones.
