Fulfilling the customer requirement has always been of utmost concern to logistics service companies, namely those providing warehouse and transportation services. In the warehouse, inner transportation problem affects its performance. Order picker problem is one of the problems that involves the transportation problem within the warehouse. The problem can be handled properly by having proper storage assignment, proper tasking allocation and optimal routing for inner warehouse vehicles' movement. This study proposed a modified Dynamic Programming model to determine the shortest route for the order pickers in completing and fulfilling the customers' orders. The model shows stable solutions for numerous orders.
