A method, a computer program product, and a device determine a transport instruction for an automated vehicle which transports a pallet with goods in a pallet rack channel by determining a pallet depth; determining a first pallet position; determining a firebreak zone; calculating a second pallet position from the determined pallet depth, the determined first pallet position, and the determined firebreak zone, such that the second pallet position lies between the load end and the first pallet position and such that the pallet with the pallet depth does not extend into the firebreak zone when it is stored at the second pallet position; and forming a transport instruction based on the second pallet position such that the automated vehicle can transport the pallet to the second pallet position.
