Article Retrieval Method and Apparatus, Device and Storage Medium

An item ex-warehouse apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a storage apparatus which is configured to store at least one program;
• wherein the at least one program, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform:
• receiving and recording virtual warehouse location in-warehouse information of an item in a package stored at an express delivery station based on a cancel instruction of a first item acquisition task that is triggered by a user and is monitored and based on a determination result that the package corresponding to the first item acquisition task is in an undelivered state, wherein the express delivery station is used as a virtual warehouse location in a main warehouse where an item is initially ex-warehoused;
• determining to ex-warehouse the item from the virtual warehouse location based on a generation instruction of a second item acquisition task that is triggered by the user and is monitored and based on a determination result that it is determined that the second item acquisition task includes the item and a package transportation route corresponding to the second item acquisition task includes the express delivery station;
• and
• associating the item in the virtual warehouse location with the second item acquisition task, and associating virtual warehouse location ex-warehouse information of the item with the second item acquisition task.

An item ex-warehouse method, comprising:

• triggering a cancel instruction of a first item acquisition task to enable a warehouse management system to receive and record virtual warehouse location in-warehouse information of an item in a package stored at an express delivery station based on a cancel instruction of a first item acquisition task that is triggered by a user and is monitored and based on a determination result that the package corresponding to the first item acquisition task is in an undelivered state, wherein the express delivery station is used as a virtual warehouse location in a main warehouse where an item is initially ex-warehoused;
• triggering a generation instruction of a second item acquisition task to enable the warehouse management system to determine to ex-warehouse the item from the virtual warehouse location based on a generation instruction of a second item acquisition task that is triggered by the user and is monitored and based on a determination result that it is determined that the second item acquisition task includes the item and a package transportation route corresponding to the second item acquisition task includes the express delivery station, associate the item in the virtual warehouse location with the second item acquisition task, and associate virtual warehouse location ex-warehouse information of the item with the second item acquisition task.
