Abstract: A conveying method for goods comprising the method steps of providing goods for multiple orders, wherein the goods are conveyed in conveyor containers in an endless conveyor along a goods conveying direction, detecting the goods provided in the endless conveyor, forming a list of complete orders on the basis of the goods provided in the endless conveyor, defining ordered goods as goods included in at least one of the complete orders, automatically evaluating the complete orders with regard to their suitability for allocation to one of multiple goods sinks, taking into account at least one characteristic of the ordered goods and/or the goods sinks, wherein the goods sinks are connected to the endless conveyor in terms of conveying technology, allocating a complete order to one of the goods sinks in dependence on the evaluation, and conveying the allocated ordered goods to the goods sink.

Abstract: A conveying method for goods comprises the method steps of requesting an order from a goods sink, wherein the order comprises at least one product which is an ordered product, requesting the at least one ordered product from a first endless conveyor to which the goods sink is directly connected in terms of conveying technology, requesting and automatically transferring the at least one ordered product from a consolidation storage unit, which is connected upstream of the first endless conveyor and has a circulating conveyor line, into the first endless conveyor, and conveying and discharging the at least one requested ordered product to the goods sink.

Abstract: A conveying apparatus for goods comprises at least one goods source which provides the goods by means of conveyor containers, a plurality of goods sinks to which the goods are conveyed, and an endless conveyor which connects the at least one goods source and the goods sinks in terms of conveying technology and has a first conveyor strand and a second conveyor strand which follows the first conveyor strand along a goods conveying direction in the endless conveyor, wherein only the first conveyor strand has a fixed conveyor container entrainment.
