Rendelésösszekészítés, often translated as order picking or order fulfillment, is a crucial process in logistics and warehouse management. It involves the systematic retrieval of items from storage locations within a warehouse to fulfill customer orders. The efficiency and accuracy of order picking directly impact customer satisfaction, operational costs, and the overall speed of order fulfillment.

The process typically begins when a customer places an order, which is then transmitted to the warehouse management system (WMS). The WMS generates a picking list or a digital pick order, detailing the items to be picked, their quantities, and their corresponding locations in the warehouse. Pickers, using various methods, then navigate the warehouse to locate and collect the specified items.

There are several common order picking strategies. Discrete order picking involves a picker retrieving all items for a single order before moving to the next. Zone picking assigns pickers to specific areas of the warehouse, and they pick items only within their assigned zones. Batch picking allows pickers to collect items for multiple orders simultaneously. Wave picking consolidates orders into groups that are released for picking in a timed sequence.

The tools and technologies used in order picking range from simple paper pick lists to advanced systems like pick-to-light, voice-directed picking, and robotic picking systems. The choice of strategy and technology depends on factors such as order volume, item variety, warehouse layout, and budget. Accurate and efficient order picking is essential for a smooth supply chain operation.
