a/c

The abbreviation “a/c”, short for “account”, is not only used in the world of finance, but also in logistics. In this context, “a/c” refers to the management of accounts or invoices in the logistics process, whereby there is a clear separation between the withdrawal unit and the delivery unit.

In logistics, the issuing unit is often not the same as the picking unit, which allows for flexible handling. An example of this is shortened two-stage picking. Here, an outer packaging unit is removed, while picked sales units are placed in customer-specific picking containers. These processes are precisely controlled with the help of “a/c” to ensure seamless tracking of goods movements and transactions.

The integration of “a/c” into the logistics processes enables efficient management of accounts and invoices, which in turn leads to improved transparency and traceability. This allows companies to precisely control their picking processes while maintaining the integrity of their financial data.
