Add goods

The following steps are carried out to add goods to the shelf:

1. selection of the shelf:

To start loading, a shelf is selected first. Double-click on the desired shelf to start stocking. In the Goods presentation tab, select the item Goods placement, whereupon the window for placement opens.

2. read out shelf data:

Once the shelf has been selected, the shelf can be imported by clicking on Read shelf data.

3. place goods:

The selected object can now be dragged and dropped onto the shelf. The rectangle shown indicates the respective object. If you select it by left-clicking, you can make further adjustments.

Load shelf to maximum:

If you select the maximum load option beforehand, the entire shelf will be filled to the maximum with the goods.

You can now place as many different products as you like on the shelf. As soon as it is fully stocked, the program prevents placement.

Adjust stack count

Once the object has been selected, the number of objects stacked on top of each other can be adjusted using the Vertical stack count slider. The Depth number of stacks slider shows how many times an object can be stacked to the rear. The respective slider can be set to the maximum that the goods cannot protrude beyond the shelf or the rear wall of the rack. However, this is only possible if the maximum stacking height has not been changed beforehand. This is set optimally from the start. If this is not the case, the goods will continue to be stacked above the shelf.
In this example, the cans can be stacked a maximum of twice on top of each other and 3 times in a row, otherwise they exceed the shelf or are in the rear wall.

Delete an object

To delete an object, select it by clicking on the rectangle and remove it bypressing the [DEL] key or by clicking on the trash can.

4. place the goods:

By pressing the Place goods button, the goods are now placed on the shelf.

Copying a shelf

To copy a shelf completely, steps 1 and 2 must be followed first. Once this has been done, the entire shelf can be copied by clicking the Copy button.

Now select the shelf to which you want to transfer the current one. To do this, follow steps 1 and 2 again. The copied shelf can now be inserted by clicking on the Paste button.
