The Cross Dock Staging area is designated for storing Crossdock boxes after approval in the following cases:

  • When the Crossdock plan is not yet available for the boxes.

  • When the Crossdock plan is available for the boxes, but the order has a late Service Level Agreement (SLA).

The setup includes configured aisles for staging, with no specific requirement for zones.

Within this area, storage boxes of the Crossdock type are accommodated. Each location holds a single box.

Storage boxes from this area can be moved to:

  • Packing Desk: If a crossdock plan is available and no consolidation of boxes is needed.

  • Outward Staging: If a crossdock plan is available, and there is a need for consolidating boxes.

  • Storage Area: To activate live inventory.

Storage boxes are converted into pack boxes when they are scanned for packing or placed in the Outward Staging area.

When storage boxes are picked for movement into live inventory, they are converted into bins.
