Location Naming Conventions

• Simple Structure: Use Area–Aisle–Shelf–Bin (e.g., FRONT-A1-S2-B3).
• Short Names: Keep codes short enough to fit on bin labels and pick sheets.
• Consistent Prefixes: Group locations by department (e.g., POS-, WARE-, ONLINE-).
• Document It: Share a quick-reference chart with staff so everyone uses the same codes.

Adding Locations to Inventory

1. Open an inventory item and click Edit.
2. Enter your location code in the Remark field (e.g., FRONT-A1-S2-B3).
3. Use Bulk Edit when changing multiple cards in the same batch.
4. Save to update the location. The change is logged in History & Audit automatically.

Keeping Locations Accurate

• Monthly Spot Checks: Pick a random bin and confirm the cards match what the system shows.
• Transfers: Use the Transfer tool instead of manual edits when moving large batches between rooms.
• Receiving Workflow: Assign locations as soon as items arrive so staff never shelve without a code.
• Label Everything: Print labels from the Location Summary view to avoid handwriting mistakes.
