Strategic optimization of split orders at Yihaodian In e-commerce it is often the case that the retailer has to fulfill an order from more than one distribution center. This kind of situation is called a split order. Our goal is to minimize the number of split orders by allocating SKUs to DCs. The problem can be characterized as a two-stage stochastic integer program with recourse. At the stage of the study, we will compare the performance of several heuristics against a dataset from an important Chinese online retailer. Time permitting, we will also cover the dataset and potential directions for further research.
