ABSTRACT:
A system, method, and/or program that enables a material handling system to proactively stage lots at ideally located stockers. Input containing the lots to be processed on a process machine is entered into a manual order queue (“MOQ”). The system, method, and/or program then proactively determines the location for the staging of the lots to be processed based at least in part on the state of the stockers.
