Check Digit for Location Conformation

The customer would send their location barcode Check characters in a custom field. Once a bot arrives at a location and a colleague confirms they have placed the required items onto the location, the bot should ask the colleague to type in the check character/ digits to confirm the item was placed into the correct location

Problem/opportunity trying to be solved

Customer will have c100 bots on putaway which will require almost 50 handsets for putaway, this is a significant cost to our business and the customer, especially with the supply of handhelds at present

Quantify the problem/opportunity

More and more customers across Europe and the US are using putaway, locus should find a solution that requires less cost for our customers and a more seamless approach to putaway

What is the root cause of the problem/opportunity

a) the number of scanners available in the business

b) the number of scanners required at this site and managing those scanners

c) the cost of scanners to the customer
