Task
task_id
The task_id is a unique identifier for each task.
This identifier must be globally unique across all task groups in the system.
bin_id
The bin_id identifies the Bin that is to be retrieved by the task.
item
The item property is used to group tasks for picking. Tasks with the same item value will be grouped and picked together. It's a way to link bins to each other in the preferred sequence.
The item property is optional.
order
The order property defines the picking sequence of tasks within a task group. Tasks with a lower order value are picked before tasks with a higher order value.
This is particularly useful in grocery solutions, where, for example, heavy items are picked before light items to ensure proper palletization. Ordering works best when combined with effective lookahead planning.
Tasks that are grouped by the same item value must not have conflicting order values.
Tasks without an assigned order may be picked in any sequence, including before, after, or between tasks that have an order value defined.
The order property is optional.
estpicktime
The estpicktime property specifies the expected handling time for a task, expressed in seconds.
This information is used by AutoStore to optimize system performance.
The estpicktime property is optional.
