Storage location assignment is very important because of the uncertainty in the number of incoming products, the necessity of answering unknown customers’ demands and the speed rate of response to customer demands. Besides, several factors affect warehouse management. Assigning products to appropriate locations is one of the most important and complex. This study aims to present recent academic works on the storage location assignment problem published from 2018 to 2021. These problems are assigned accordingly. Methods of solution, goals and some related considerations are considered while investigating the works. Recommendations are provided in the conclusion.
