Abstract: A method for optimizing order fulfillment in a warehouse by an online system. The system receives an item catalog from an inventory system, which includes item locations. The system also obtains a taxonomy that organizes items into hierarchical levels based on attributes. When an order is placed by a user, the system checks whether the item catalog contains location data for each item. If an item's location is missing, the system identifies alternative items from the taxonomy with shared attributes and uses the location of a selected alternative item as a proxy. The system determines a picking sequence for the items in the order, optimized to minimize travel distance within the warehouse, and transmits the sequence to a shopper's device for fulfillment.

Abstract: An online concierge system receives information from a warehouse including locations of items within the warehouse. When a shopper selects an order for fulfillment from the warehouse, the online concierge system sorts the items for the shopper to minimize the time spent in the warehouse using the received information. When the online concierge system does not receive a location of an item within the warehouse, the online concierge system obtains a taxonomy for the warehouse including multiple levels, with each level having a different level of specificity. The online concierge system determines a higher level in the taxonomy for the item and identifies other items offered by the warehouse having the determined category. The online concierge system infers a location of the item within the warehouse used for sorting items of the order from locations of the other items within the warehouse and times when shoppers retrieved the other items.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing projects in a content management system. In some embodiments, a content management system can generate a graphical user interface that presents a centralized view of a project. For example, the project can include project members, content items, tasks assigned to project members, communications between project members and activity history for the project. The graphical user interface can present this project data (e.g., project members, content items, tasks, communications, activity, etc.) so that a project member can easily and quickly view multiple aspects of the project.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to a organization directory hosted by a synchronized content management system. The corporate directory can provide access to user accounts for all members of the organization to all content items in the organization directory on the respective file systems of the members' client devices. Members can reach any content item at the same path as other members relative to the organization directory root on their respective client device. In some embodiments novel access permissions are granted to maintain path consistency.

Abstract: An online concierge system offers items for sale and uses different units of measurements for items, allowing users to purchase numbers of an item, a weight of an item, or a packages of an item. To avoid confusing users with multiple options for specifying a quantity of an item, the online concierge system determines whether to present an interface for purchasing an item by a number of the item, by weight of the item, or a number of packages in the item from dynamic information about the item. For example, the online concierge system obtains historical pricing information an items and computes a par-weight price for the item from prior purchases of the item. The online concierge system uses the par-weight of the item to select an interface for a user when purchasing the item.
