A computer system, computer program product and method of optimizing the positioning of objects for transportation that includes a processor obtaining information describing at least one rack, where the rack includes one or more shelves and determining load parameters related to the rack. The processor also obtains order information that includes data describing objects in an order, at least in part from a memory resource. Based on obtaining the order information, the processor creates one or more buffer elements. Each buffer element represents a quantity of objects of the plurality of objects that can fit on a given shelf. Based on the load parameters, the processor analyzes each shelf and assigns a shelf type variable to each shelf and the processor determines the amount of objects that can fit on the individual. Based on the shelf type variable, the processor assigns shelves to each buffer element. |

1. A method of optimizing the positioning of objects for transportation, comprising:
obtaining, by a processor, information describing at least one rack, wherein the rack comprises one or more shelves and determining load parameters related to the at least one rack; obtaining, by the processor, order information comprising data describing a plurality of objects that comprise an order, wherein the processor obtains at least a portion of the data from a memory resource; based on obtaining the order information, creating, by the processor, one or more buffer elements, wherein each buffer element of the one or more buffer elements represents a quantity of objects of the plurality of objects that can fit on a given shelf; based on the load parameters, analyzing, by the processor, each shelf of the one or more shelves and assigning a shelf type variable to each shelf, wherein for each individual shelf of the one or more shelves, the shelf type variable represents an amount of objects that can fit on the individual shelf and positioning requirements for the individual shelf when placed on the at least one rack, wherein the processor determines the amount of objects that can fit on the individual shelf based on whether any objects are on the individual shelf; and based on the shelf type variable, assigning, by the processor, at least one shelf of the one or more shelves to each buffer element of the one or more buffer elements. |
