Morphology

floorplanning = floorplan (semi-transparent) = floor + plan + ing

The meaning is fairly clear as arranging a store layout, but it is still a domain-specific extension of the base idea of floor planning.

Etymology

Floorplanning comes from the parts floor ('the shop or building level') and plan ('to arrange'). So for a store it means deciding where to put shelves, products, and aisles on the shop floor to help customers move and buy more.
