Load Planning: Cartons per Layer, Pallet Height & Weight Limits, Pallets per Truck & Container, Cube Utilisation & Cost per Unit
Fit more goods into every shipment: cartons per layer in both orientations, layers within height and weight limits, pallets per truck or container, cube and weight utilisation and what a better load does to cost per unit, with every cell checked as you go.

About this course
This course builds a load plan step by step. You count cartons per pallet layer in both orientations with INT and MAX, find how many layers fit within a height limit and a weight limit, and check every built pallet with IF and AND. You then count pallet floor positions lengthwise and crosswise for trucks and containers, look up the chosen vehicle with XLOOKUP and compare floor space with payload. You measure cube and weight utilisation to see whether a load cubes out or weighs out, turn a mixed order into pallets and trucks with ROUNDUP, test carton redesigns and finish with freight cost per unit by scenario in a chart.
