System for sorting sorting pieces into target locations logically associated with their target destination, comprising: a) a plurality of target locations arranged in an array, wherein the target locations are moreover arranged to be located substantially in a first plane, and wherein each of the target locations can be logically assigned, at least temporarily, one or more target destinations by means of a sorting control; b) a plurality of first sorting conveyors (S12, S13) running in a first direction and having discharge modules (M12a to M12h, M13a to M13h) which can be actuated by the sorting control, which are arranged in a second plane located above the first plane and extending between rows of target locations in such a way that the discharge modules (M12a to M12h, M13a to M13h) arranged in the first sorting conveyors (S12, S13) are able to reach target locations arranged on both sides of the first sorting conveyors (S11, S12, S13) with sorting pieces provided for these target locations, c) a first presorting conveyor arranged on one side of the array of target locations and also in the second plane, with discharge modules (V1b, V1c), wherein the first presorting conveyor with its discharge modules (V1b, V1c) is controllable in such a way that a sorting piece can be transferred to the sorting conveyor of the plurality of first sorting conveyors (S12, S13) which serves the target location provided for this sorting piece, characterized in that d) a plurality of second sorting conveyors (S21, S22) are provided which extend in a second direction at an angle to the first direction and which have discharge modules (M21a to M21h, M22a to M22h) which can be actuated by the sorting control and which are arranged in the second plane located above the first plane and so as to extend between rows of target locations, in that the discharge modules (M21a to M21h, M22a to M22h) arranged in the second sorting conveyors (S21, S22) are capable of serving target locations arranged on both sides of the second sorting conveyors (S21, S22) with sorting pieces provided for these target locations, and e) a second presorting conveyor arranged on one side of the array of target locations and likewise in the second plane is provided with discharge modules (V2b, V2c) which can be actuated by the sorting control, wherein the second presorting conveyor arranged on the opposite side of the array of target locations is controllable with its discharge modules (V2b, V2c) in such a way that a sorting piece is transferable to the sorting conveyor of the plurality of second sorting conveyors (S21, S22) which serves the target location provided for this sorting piece. a) a plurality of target locations arranged in an array, wherein the target locations are moreover arranged to be located substantially in a first plane, and wherein each of the target locations can be logically assigned, at least temporarily, one or more target destinations by means of a sorting control;
