Order Optimization

Every order shipped
from the right place.

When orders come in, Noxtill decides which location fills each one, using who has the stock, who is closest and what it costs to ship, then groups the picking so your team walks less.

Batched picking

One walk through the shelves, not seven.

Orders going out from the same place are grouped into one pick list sorted by shelf, so a morning’s orders are gathered in a single pass and then split into parcels.

How it chooses

Clear reasons for every routing decision.

Each order shows why it went where it did, and you can change the weighting or send any order somewhere else by hand.

Who has it

Orders go to a location that can fill them completely, so they don’t ship in pieces.

Who is closest

Shorter trips mean faster delivery and lower shipping cost.

What it costs

Shipping and handling cost per location is weighed against speed.

Your priorities

Favour speed, cost or keeping the store stocked — your call.

How does it pick the location for an order?

By who has all the items in stock, who is closest to the customer and what it costs to ship, weighted the way you choose.

Can I override where an order ships from?

Yes. Any order can be moved to another location by hand, and the reason is kept.

What is batched picking?

Orders going out from the same place are grouped into one pick list sorted by shelf, so staff collect everything in one pass.

Will it split an order across locations?

Only if you allow it. By default it prefers one location that can fill the whole order.

Does it work with my own delivery riders?

Yes. Orders routed to a location can go to your riders or to a shipping carrier.
