(qualifier:logistics, uncountable) Synonym of pick-to-order.
The most basic is discrete picking in which a worker is responsible for a full request. Zone picking consists of dividing a warehouse into several zones (blocks), and an operator is accountable for collecting all products inside this zone. In batch picking, several requests are combined, so each product is collected in more copious quantities.
