Possible Categories
Cat 1- Highly/Completely Sorted (At least 2 identical characteristics, most other char. similar (ex: a 3' and 6' power cable). Things get to this point either through a combination of rote labor and process, or because a large lot of presorted goods is donated. These goods often become "legacy" sorted, which is to say, we continue to sort them because they are now. This type of sort happens in response to the item being commonly requested, or because of an over-zealous volunteer.
- Examples
Cat 2 - Partially Sorted (At least one identical char., others similar or quite different (example USB to mini, USB to serial)
- Examples
Cat 3 - Marginally Sorted (Theme-based sorting, perhaps a few similar char.(ex: motherboard card risers))
- Examples
Cat 4 - Barely/Completely Unsorted (Barest sort, or none at all (ex: misc peripheral cables)
- Examples
Sortings Methods
- Sort by function
- Sort by connectors
- Sort by length
- Sort by quality
- Sort by remainder
