Floor storage

Hello

I would like to ask a question about warehousing. I have three types of products with each with different height 1500mm, 850mm and 500mm, i want them to stack on top of eachother in the floor storage. I only can store 1500mm on top of 1500mm and 850 on top of 850 the same for 500, in the stack there is 2x1500mm 3x850mm 6x500mm. How can i do that in processflow / storage system. additionaly in one row of floor storage i have 9bays and i can have different products in bays per one floor storage. Is it possible to create logic like this?
Regards.

To do something like this I generally use two staggered queries when searching for a slot. The first query tries to find a slot that already has been assigned to the correct 'class'.

If such a slot is not found, the second query is used and searches for an empty slot (without an assigned class). If this is successful, the item's class is assigned to the respective slot label so it can in future be found only by the first query. As a result, each slot will only hold a single type of item.

You could also further adapt this logic. For example by assigning the class to all slots in the bay to achieve single-type bays.
