Hi Alteryx Community,
Attached is a workflow to determine how many totes (boxes) are required to store 30 items of different weights and dimensions. The constraints are the inner cubic volume and maximum weight a box can hold, and the items are in a pre-defined sequence.
Based on the calculation, a total of 8 boxes will be required. However, there will be opportunities to 'squeeze in' small / light item(s) down the list to reduce the number of boxes from 8 to say 7 or 6.
I have looked into examples using Predictive Grouping, Prescriptive Optimization but couldn't find one that suits this scenario...
Looking for some better ideas from the community.
Than you
