ABSTRACT:
A system for picking particular articles, by using a receiving box, out of many articles held on article shelves in order to handle articles at high speeds, highly efficiently and highly reliably in a physical distribution management system. The system includes a wireless response tag having a rewritable storage unit, a receiving box having a tag, a terminal equipment for writing/reading article data to and from the tag, a plurality of article shelves, an order-accepting unit, and a belt conveyer, wherein provision is made of a destination-of-picking read terminal at a position of the belt conveyer in from of the article shelves to read the data of an article to be picked from the tag, to indicate the quantity and a management number on the article shelf and to store the management number in the tag, and when the receiving box has moved close to the article shelves, the management number corresponding to the article to be picked is read out and is flashed so as to give an instruction that the article is to be taken off the shelf and put into the receiving box.
