Hi Dan
Below explanation will be good help for deciding all details for storage bin.
XYZ coordinates
The X, Y, and Z coordinates specify the location of the bin in the warehouse and
are used in the travel path calculations for labor management.
The naming comes from the XYZ coordinates of a three-dimensional map.
You can determine the XYZ coordinates of your warehouse storage bins by overlaying your
warehouse diagram onto a map and measuring the location of the storage bins
according to the XYZ coordinates of the map.
>> Information about the storage bin used for visualization, such as aisle, stack,
level, bin section, bin depth, and bin angle .This information is used in the graphical warehouse layout to determine certain parameters of the bin used in visualizing the warehouse layout. It can also be used to provide additional information to the warehouse worker about the bin location or can be used in analytical reporting.
Note :
how they should determine where to place the origin (the 0,0,0 point) in their warehouse.
Because the distance calculations are based on relative differences between the
points, it doesn’t really matter where the origin is located. However, it makes it easier
for most people to understand where the locations are relative to one another if the origin
is placed in the bottom left part of the map when looking at it in its most common
orientation. This allows all of the numbers to be on the positive scale in all three dimensions.
Just remember that your yard locations can also be assigned XYZ coordinates, so
you may want to consider that as well when determining your origin.
what unit of measure should be used. Again, it doesn’t really matter. You only have to account for the constraints of the relevant fields when making that decision. The field is a decimal field type and allows 10 numerals before the decimal and 3 after. Therefore, common units of measure used in the assignment are feet, yards, or meters.
