METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PRIORITIZING STOCK-KEEPING UNITS IN COST-BASED INVENTORY ALLOCATION

摘要

Various examples of methods and systems for prioritizing identifier in cost-based inventory allocation are described. In one implementation, a method may determine a shipping cost sensitivity of each identifier of a plurality of identifiers of a plurality of items in an inventory, the shipping cost sensitivity of each identifier related to sales volume, billable weight and shipping zone associated with the respective identifier. The method may also rank the plurality of identifiers based at least in part on the shipping cost sensitivity of each identifier. The method may further determine an order of allocation of the inventory of the plurality of items based at least in part on the ranking of the plurality of identifiers.
