order processing time

Definition

The expected period of time between the date an order is placed and when it is shipped. Factors that may affect processing time include inventory levels, errors in order picking, weather, federal holidays, etc. Use of a warehouse management system that automates various aspects of the picking and packaging process may help shorten the average order processing time.
